How to Extract Detailed Information from Text Layers in Premiere Pro (for Specific Sequence/Video)

Hello,

I am looking for a way to extract detailed information about text layers in a specific sequence or video in Adobe Premiere Pro. Specifically, I want to gather the following details for each text and related properties:

 

Composition Name,

Text Properties,

Artwork Properties,

Audio Properties.

 

Is there any built-in functionality, plugin, or script that can help automate the extraction of these specific properties from Premiere Pro? I would appreciate any guidance or resources on how to achieve this.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Texts and other details from Premiere's native text layers cannot be accessed by Premiere Pro's scripting API. Therefore, I think you won't be able to automate that.

 

The sequence name, audio file names, texts of Ae Mogrts in the Pr timeline can be accessed by the scripting API and my (paid) extension Automation Blocks is a good option to do that. See here for how to create music cue sheets, for example:
