Filemaker releases Automator actions

Finally! I have been waiting for this for a while now. Earlier this week FileMaker released a set of Automator actions, allowing users to create a workflow of FileMaker scripts that can be run right from the desktop. Among the fifteen included actions are Find FileMaker Pro Items, Close Database, Get IDs of Current Records, Get Record Data and Go to Layout. These actions, when used as part of a workflow, execute the corresponding FileMaker script steps or database operations in an open FileMaker database. Sweet.

As with the FileMaker Dashboard widget, this is a technological preview, so bear that in mind. But I'm having fun with it so far.
