Reveal and select a file in Finder without opening it

This script navigates to my template session. Should work for what you're looking to do. Just change the path in the sf.keyboard.type line:

// Navigate to template session file
sf.ui.finder.menuClick({
    menuPath: ["Go", "Go to Folder…"],
});

sf.keyboard.type({
    text: '/Users/cshaw340/Desktop/Pro Tools Templates etc/NEW Mix Setup Template - PT2020.ptx'
});
sf.ui.finder.windows.whoseTitle.is("Go to Folder").first.elementWaitFor();
sf.ui.finder.mainWindow.getElement("AXDefaultButton").elementClick();

Suddenly stoped working... I have this long code in my script and it has worked since a few days ago... now it says no files found. Than I have tried new script / shorter, which can be found in pt package and it also doesn't work - error says "could not open popup menu"

No idea?

One of two commands suddenly started working again... second one in my library doesn't work... but it's ok for me.

This is the code that works:

function getClipFilename() {
sf.ui.proTools.appActivateMainWindow();

//Clear search, to ensure Clip Rename will work
sf.keyboard.press({
    keys: "cmd+shift+d",
});

// Open Rename, copy Filename and close Rename
sf.ui.proTools.menuClick({
    menuPath: ["Clip", "Rename..."],
});

var nameWin = sf.ui.proTools.windows.whoseTitle.is('Name').first;
nameWin.elementWaitFor({}, `Clip Rename didn't work`);

let nameElement = nameWin.groups.whoseTitle.is('Clip Info').first.children.whoseRole.is("AXStaticText").allItems[2];
let name = nameElement.value.value;

nameWin.buttons.whoseTitle.is('OK').first.mouseClickElement();
nameWin.elementWaitFor({ waitForNoElement: true });

return name;

}

function locateFile({
filename,
searchPaths
}) {
var ext = filename.split('.').slice(-1)[0].toLowerCase();
var filenameLowerCase = filename.toLowerCase();

var candidates = [];
for (let searchPath of searchPaths) {
    for (let candidatePath of sf.file.directoryGetFiles({
        path: searchPath,
        searchPattern: `*.${ext}`,
        isRecursive: true
    }).paths.filter(p => p.split('/').slice(-1)[0].toLowerCase() === filenameLowerCase)) {
        candidates.push(candidatePath);
    }
}

return candidates;

}

function main() {

let sessionFolder = sf.ui.proTools.mainWindow.sessionPath.split('/').slice(0, -1).join('/');
let audioFilesFolder = `${sessionFolder}/Audio Files`;

let clipFilename = getClipFilename();

let candidates = locateFile({
    filename: clipFilename,
    searchPaths: [
        audioFilesFolder,

//Specify additional search paths here, like this:
// '/Volumes/Intern_SSD1/Projects/202008_YOUNG',
],
});

if (candidates.length === 0)
    log('No files found');
else if (candidates.length === 1)  {
    sf.system.exec({ commandLine: `open -R "${candidates[0]}"` });
} else {
    log('Multiple files found.');
    let selectedPath = sf.interaction.popupSearch({
        items: candidates.map(c => ({
            name: c,
        }))
    }).item.name;
    sf.system.exec({ commandLine: `open -R "${selectedPath}"` });
}

}

main();
