cannot read “account name” from keychain using applescript
0
I am not able to read the "account name" from keychain using apple script.
this does not work:
tell app "Keychain Scripting" to get account of "app name"
I am able to read the password from keychain using the following:
local password
set password to do shell script ("security 2>&1 >/dev/null find-generic-password -gl " & quoted form of "app name" & " | cut -c 11-99 | sed 's/"//g'")
is there a documentation on which commands to use for keychain scripting?

As far as I can remember Apple removed Keychain Scripting.app in Lion (macOS 10.7)
