This Library pack allows customers to obtain information from Plist files which exist within the macOS operating system, using a Remote Action.
Returns the content of up to three Plist file properties (keys). This can be based on three different plist files and keys as inputs, or a single plist file (and three key based input values for that file). The given keys can also be nested.
Run the script as 'local system'. The script should be executed manually.
A timeout of 120 seconds is recommended.
