Multiple identifiers
If you specify multiple identifiers (language, input_source_id or input_mode_id), these are joined by “and”.
The following condition is matched if language is “ja” and input_mode_id is “com.apple.inputmethod.Japanese.Hiragana”.
{ "type": "input_source_if", "input_sources": [ { "language": "^ja$", "input_mode_id": "^com\\.apple\\.inputmethod\\.Japanese\\.Hiragana$" } ] } Multiple entries
If you specify multiple entries at input_sources, conditions are joined by “or”.
The following condition is matched if language is “en” or “ja”.
{ "type": "input_source_if", "input_sources": [ { "language": "^en$" }, { "language": "^ja$" } ] } Investigate the input source identifiers
You can find the current input source identifiers by EventViewer > Variables tab.
