You can only add the Spotlight properties that are accessible from the Inspector:

I can't see anything relevant in terms of file path.

If you want to get the file path of the currently selected file, the only way I can think of doing this is:

  1. Triggering File > Reveal In Finder then copying the path from Finder
  2. Triggering Edit > Copy, then reading the Pasteboard data to get the file path, keeping in mind that the Pasteboard data structure could change between versions.
  3. Build some kind of user interface, so that you drag the clip from the Timeline or Browser to your user interface (which sends FCPXML), and then read the FCPXML contents.
