Hello Guys, how to skip 2nd and 3rd steps in batch sequence which is "Run commands on" and "Select output location" respectively. Since i added the details of 2nd and 3rd sequences in my script itself. Also one more question, is there any method to run the JavaScript alone without batch sequences? if so how to do that?

1. Copy-paste the script into a new batch sequence and use it alone.

or

2. Copy-paste the script into the JavaScript Console, select all, hit the Enter key (not Return).

You can't remove these parts of the Action. They are an integral part of it.

You can set the "Select Output Location" setting to now save the files, if you're doing it in your script, though.

I don't understand how you could replace the command that selects which files to process with a script.

Did you hard-code the file-paths into the code? If so, then you don't need to use an Action at all.
