Shortcuts Playground

Shortcuts Playground is a factory automation to quickly create blank shortcuts for testing and experimentation.

To use, create a blank folder named “Playground” (or any name of your choice) and place Shortcuts Playground inside.

Ensure Shortcuts Playground has its own dedicated folder

Then, simply run it to generate a blank shortcut. The generated shortcuts have randomly generated hashes for their names.

Run the shortcut to generate a new blank shortcut

The idea is you can quickly experiment with something and then either delete the generated shortcut once your done, or rename it and move it elsewhere if you plan to develop it further. For example, your favourite app just had an update which comes with new Shortcuts actions, and you want to try them out quickly or see what’s available.

You can use this automation to generate as many blank shortcuts as you need.

You can run it as many times as you like!
