Type text
Type: Type text | Category: Inputs | Icon: 📝
Types literal text into the active window. Internally, this works by saving the current clipboard, setting the text, pressing Ctrl+V, then restoring the original clipboard.
Settings
| Setting | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Text | string | — | Text to type. Supports variable substitution (e.g., {searchText}) |
Outputs
None.
Tips
- Prefer templated values like
{searchText}so the same Task works for multiple inputs. - Use Hide search window before typing so input goes to the target app.
- There are brief delays (~50ms) between clipboard operations to ensure reliability.
