The workflow might fail to install saying that alfred-link was not allowed to access Alfred preferences. Similar issues can be found in repositories of other workflows built with Alfy, all of them have alfred-link as dependency.

There is an open issue in alfred-link repository on this error.

Possible Workaround

Even though I was unable to reproduce the problem on my machine, I've noticed that in all these error messages alfred-link tries to access file com.runningwithcrayons.Alfred-Preferences-3.plist. I don't have this file on my Mac, but I do have com.runningwithcrayons.Alfred-Preferences.plist (without -3 in the end).

For everyone experiencing this issue I suggest to follow this advice and create symlink by executing the following command in terminal:

ln -s ~/Library/Preferences/com.runningwithcrayons.Alfred-Preferences.plist ~/Library/Preferences/com.runningwithcrayons.Alfred-Preferences-3.plist
