input parameter in url scheme not working

kishner

I set up an url scheme to search for a term using the Global Search... workflow:

editorial://open/todo/todo.txt?root=dropbox&command=Global%20Search...&input=banana

However, when I tap on it, I am immediately presented with the input prompt. Shouldn't the url scheme deliver that and immediately trigger the search?

As it is, the Global Search workflow ignores the workflow input. It always shows an input alert, regardless of how it's started. You could change this by wrapping the Request Text Input action in an If block that checks if the Input variable is empty.
