Scrape session titles
For a given list of Apple Developer session URLs, this will iterate through each, grabbing the name of the webpage, cleaning it up, and reformatting it into a Markdown list before copying that to your clipboard.
Actions

If
Tests if a condition is true, and if so, runs the actions inside. Otherwise, the actions under “Otherwise” are run.

Get Group from Matched Text
Gets the text that matched a particular capture group or all of the capture groups from the output of a Match Text action.

For example, this action can get the name of a photo or song, or the text of a web page.
