How to get Hazel to run A Better Finder Attributes droplet

So I have a million photos that all have the wrong Date Created and Date Modified — they're basically all the same day, not the date the photo was captured. So my idea was to put a group of photos (say 2020 photos) in a folder, have Hazel rename it based on EXIF date captured (the photo does have hold info properly), then after that, launch A Better Finder Attributes' droplet which would then copy the EXIF capture date to the Date Created and Date Modified. The missing piece is how to get Hazel to run the droplet on all the photos in the folder. I'm assuming it will require some sort of AppleScript, which I am not familiar with at all. Please help if you can!! Thank you!!!

I don't now how those droplets work. You should contact the developer of A Better Finder Attributes to see what the options are in terms of interacting with it in an automated fashion.
