I have an Automator service that adds selected photos to iPhoto. I would like it to also add a specific keyword to these photos.
How can I do this?
I found this question, but the only answer does not set the keywords via automator.

If you are using the “Import to iPhoto” Automator action, that returns a list of iPhoto photos you can process. Just add an “Applescript” action after your import action with the following script:
tell application "iPhoto"
repeat with importedPhoto in (input as list)
select importedPhoto
assign keyword string "your keyword"
end repeat
end tell
– that should do the trick.

1Thanks, this did indeed do the trick. You left out the word
stringafterkeyword, though. I went ahead and edited it in to help future visitors. – Lawrence Johnston May 9 '12 at 0:14
