I'm using Hazel to send PDF files to Evernote when the appropriately tagged file lands in the "Action Evernote" folder.

I wish to use the Finder tags as tags in EN via an embedded AppleScript.

When the input attribute Tags is chosen, the script generates an error.
If any other input attribute is chosen (size, comment, etc), the script runs with expected result.

The AS is as follows:

tell application id "com.evernote.evernote"

activate

set tag1 to item 1 of inputAttributes
set tag2 to item 2 of inputAttributes

create note from file theFile notebook "Journal Articles" tags {tag1, tag2}

end tell

What is the error? Also, note that Tags is a list and not a single value which may affect things.

I suspect "Tags is a list and not a single value" is the source of my misunderstanding and the error.

How would I reference and utilize the Finder Tags in the Tags list imported to the AppleScript? My goal is to duplicate the Finder tags in the Evernote note created by the script.

The Hazel log from the error is below. For context, the file being acted on is "Ophelia.pdf". It contains Tags "Journal Articles" and "stroke" and the Comment "test". The attributes imported into the script are Tags and Comment.

Thanks.

Tags is already a list so the first item of inputAttributes will be a list already. No reason to have separate variables for each tag and then re-combine them for Evernote. Just assign the whole thing to one variable and send that one variable.
