I'm using AutoWeb 1.0.3 Beta Developer application.

Spotify authentication has stopped working. AutoWeb opens this authorization URL with response_type=token, and Spotify returns the error:

response_type must be code

The OAuth2 configuration in AutoWeb does not provide a Response Type setting, so I cannot switch to Authorization Code with PKCE myself.

Could you confirm whether an update is planned to support Spotify's required Authorization Code Flow with PKCE?

Thank you.

I'm using a Vivo X300 Ultra on OriginOS 7 (Android 17). On this phone, as many other Chinese phones, notification icons disappear from Always On Display after unlocking the phone, even if you didn't clear or read the notifications. So when unlocking and then locking again, no icons from old notifications will appear on AOD. Sadly this is by design, not a bug. Although contrary to some other phones, the notifications at least remain on the lock screen in this case.

I followed this tutorial utilizing Tasker+AutoNotification to be able to get the icons to reappear.

https://www.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/1ov3w1l/how_to_get_notifications_to_stay_on_stay_on_your/

It worked fine while I was using OriginOS 6, however after updating to version 7, apparently this method got broken due to some system changes. There are a few quirks to mention here. Tasker toggling DND or running some other commands works fine, but after the screen is locked AutoNotification Snooze command normally doesn't trigger unless either:

a) I wake the screen manually,
b) phone is charging (either wall charger, PC USB, or wireless),
c) the timing is correct.

What do I mean by c)? There seems to be some kind of an alarm delay timer following 5-minute checkpoints. This timer is always exact, which I assume is related to the boot event, and allows the snooze to pass through. For example, I locked the screen at 19:40:00, then at 19:41:34 autotasker snooze was able to run. Subsequently I locked the screen at 19:42:00 and didn't wake it, the snooze ran at 19:46:34 exactly. There is no such problem with other notifications.

Note that I disabled all battery optimizations for Tasker and AutoNotification, locked them in recents and allowed all permissions. I tried to do some digging (with help of AI) - tried to disable doze, even tried to spoof charging, but nothing helped so far.

Is there another (no-root) way to force a notification refresh as soon as locking the screen?

Searching for tasks in Tasker, I found a category labeled "3rd Party". It shows apps, I have read about 1 in an action list called APNDroid. It showed APN Droid in that category so I knew it listed at least well known 3rd party plugins.

I am curious if I can make my own app that is effectively a plugin for tasker to do things, and what that would look like. Like a set of Receivers set to specific intent filters or actions? Or can there only be one and there are specific categories that tasker can send?

Just testing out the new beta. While I see the video tutorials by the devs clearly have tags and various description under each cards of the profiles, tasks, etc. I can't seem to figure out how to enable that on my side. I looked everywhere. Is it because the app is still in beta, or something I am missing totally. Please help

Along with this stuff posted earlier, I am seeing more and more strange stuff I have never seen from Tasker before over many, many years. The list of stuff is far longer than shown above. I tried to select it all but caused a crash. So not all here. Version 6.7.6-beta on Android x86, version 9.

Hmmm.

MapTasker is a comprehensive program that enables you to view, analyze, validate, and edit your Tasker configuration from within your desktop browser.

New features since the last announcement:

• Export in the Map and Diagram views to save each as a Markdown, JSON or PDF file.
• A Verify option on 'Save to Android' validates the object that was saved.
• AI-based 'Find/Replace' can now take a question in plain words, such as "every Profile that fires on wifi at home" (not as smart as Tasker's).
• Run On Android function to run a task live on your Android device.
• Put Helper Tasks in "MapTasker" Project corals all of the various MapTasker (Tasker) helper tasks, that MapTasker puts on your Android device, into a single 'MapTasker' project on your Android device.
• A new Fix Finding button beside 'Health Check' repairs the findings that have an obvious fix.
• Restore From History feature brings back a Task, Profile or Scene that was deleted, or puts one back as it was before an edit, from any configuration kept in the history.
• The Health Check now looks inside JavaScriptlet and Run Shell actions and reports code that cannot run because a bracket, quote, string or comment is never closed.
• The Debug tab has been renamed Assistance, and now includes a Display Log and Clear Log function.
• Uninstalled Plugins...The Health Check now names every plugin your configuration uses that is not installed on the Android device.
• What Fires When? feature identifies which profiles and tasks fire based on various conditions.
• Xref Live feature compares your configuration's variables against those on your Android device.
• Draft with AI in the Add Task panel turns a description in plain words into actions.
• Check Readiness in the Edit Project and Edit Scene windows lists what the export needs on someone else's phone.
• TaskerNet Updates will check TaskerNet against your configuration for any/all updates, and optionally install the updates for you.
• Task Stepper function to step through the logic of a given task.
• Trend Dashboard to identify if your configuration is getting cleaner or messier over time.
• Refactor has a new Variable mode that renames a variable, or turns a global into a Task's own local (or the reverse), in every action, condition and Scene that uses it.
• Missing Resources feature checks the Android device for all of the resources (files, folders, images, sounds, etc.) your projects, profiles, and tasks needs. These are also now captured in the Health Check.
• Live Run Monitor button watches which profiles and tasks fire on your Android device. As they do, it logs each one, and lights them up in the Diagram while they run. It can also compare what the device really has active with what What Fires When predicted for the same moment.
• Required AI programs, such as OpenAI's chatGPT, are no longer loaded automatically. If needed, you will be prompted to issue the terminal command pip install "maptasker[ai]" before the AI-related functions will work.

...and many many more changes (i.e. minor improvements) and fixes.

To install MapTasker, enter the following commands into Terminal/command prompt:

If using pip to manage programs: pip install maptasker -U

If using uv to manage programs: uv add maptasker

To run:

• run either from the command line: maptasker (if installed via pip) or uv run maptasker (if using uv to manage your environment).

For Scenes v1, I could add a Test Scene Action to set orientation. Is there a Modifier in Scenes v2 to do the same?

I’m current “upgrading” my action button to allow for multiple orientation and app dependent actions and one I was trying to add was a way to quickly skip or play previous song and I was wondering if anyone has made a way to detect maybe via the gyro or movement data that you can get from third party shortcut apps to determine wether u shook to the left or to the right to do different actions as stated

And help would be appreciated thank you!

In Scenes v1, I could easily add an Action to a button. I can't find such an option in Scenes v2. I can add a Task, command, trigger an Event, but I don't see how to add a simple Action. An I missing something obvious here?

What I've had to do now is create a Task containing the Actions I want, than add.

Any idea what these mean? I have seen them a couple times now. This is 6.7.6-beta on Android x86, v.9 in a virtual box.

Thanks

Where may I find the ai configuration screen, to use AI in Scenes v2?

Hallo zusammen,

ich suche jemanden, der sich mit Tasker und AutoInput auf Android auskennt und mir auf Deutsch bei einer Automatisierung helfen kann.

Ich möchte die Bedienung der Fahren Lernen App vereinfachen. Es geht insbesondere um das Erkennen von Fragen mit mehreren Antwortmöglichkeiten, teilweise auch mit Bildern oder Videos, und um die Steuerung der App über AutoInput.

Ich bin noch Anfänger bei Tasker und würde mich über konkrete Unterstützung freuen.

Vielen Dank!

With scenes v2, the "with result" group of screen types was introduced. This is a lovely thing and it even creates a wait action, but I'd love to combine this with variables (wait until) or classic wait.

For example, we could do "wait until screen has a result or %MyVariable == 15"

This would allow even more customization. Also, about wait actions, it would be lovely to combine wait until and wait (and choose between "when both arguments are true", "when one argument is true" (either time or variable) and "when both are reached (so they don't have to be true at the same time, but the parts had to be true)

For any questions, feel free to comment, I'm not sure how good my explanations are u/joaomgcd

I purchased Tasker's AutoTools back in 2018, but I am now seeing a "locked" message?

I recently started to have a problem with Pixel Pro 10 and the Quick Settings tiles; they are NOT clickable. At first, I thought was NOVA Launcher, so I repalced that with the Pixel Launcher. It appeared to work, but to be honest, I never tested Tasker and AutoInput running the Pixel Launcher. I then installed the LawnChair Launcher, since everyone said it is very similar to the Pixel Launcher, and it appeared to work for about a day, and just now I noticed the Quick Settings tiles are no longer clickable. I can restart the phone, and they will work for a while, but then they are unclickable again. Has anyone encountered this behavior? Any ideas what I can try to figure out what is causing the issue?

Hi

I'm trying to cancel a task / profile (I'm new so I think the right term is task) if I have an ongoing call. Incoming or outcoming call is irrelevant, just any call = abort task.

How can I set this rule?

Thanks

I'm sure I'm missing something obvious, but I'm struggling way more than I should to figure out how to change the card color in scenes V2. Applying a background modifier just changes the color of the area behind the card, as shown in the screenshot. I tried the Container Color modifier as well, but it doesn't seem to have any effect.

Anyone updated to One UI 9 and found out if your using Cell Near or WiFi Connected the blue dot in the top right is now pretty much constantly on?

I'm assuming the on and off is the monitoring settings in preferences though I've never changed these.

I wish Samsung would give access to remove it as even with apps in full screen like YouTube it's now showing. Its so annoying and unnecessary as I like to govern my permissions and would like if Samsung trusted users to do it or at least give me an option to turn it off on my S24.

Anyone got around this annoying problem without removing location access from tasker?

Often, when I press a Quick Settings Panel button that is associated with a Scenes v2 Overlay scene, it simply doesn't appear.

If I turn off the screen, then back on w/o pressing/swiping the screen, it will suddenly appear. This doesn't occur with original overlay scenes... They will appear as intended, every time. Log indicates the Action is executed.

What may be the issue? Is there some respective setting that needs to be tweaked?

Click to download via Taskernet

The code in this project was written with the assistance of AI tools, created on Tasker v6.7.7-rc and tested on HyperOS3 & CrDroid (Android 15).

Find archived link using Java code and if found open the link. The source code is here.

Fixed: Not detecting captcha properly.

How to use

1. Share the link to.
   1. Direct Share "Browse Archived Link".
   2. Tasker's Received Share > "Browse Archive Link".
2. Task
   1. Pass the link as %par1.

Other options

Can be seen in Browse Archive Link task properties (the gear icon inside the task).

1. %browser, the target browser.
2. %use_java , true to use java and false to use API (it's heavily rate limited).
3. %wait_duration, duration to check archive link.
4. %debug, show overlay to visualize what's being loaded.

How it works

1. Create invisible webview.
2. Load the search link https://archive(dot)ph/{targetUrl}.
3. Wait for 3000ms.
4. Query this CSS selector div.TEXT-BLOCK > a[href*="archive"]:first-child ant get the href attribute.
5. Clean the webview.
6. If found, then browse the URL.
7. If captcha is detected, it will open the search link in Scene and has to be resolved manually.
8. Click Close & Run to load again.

Not All Links Are Archived

It's not unusual that the links are not archived in there. What's archived there is user-driven. Get to know more about archive here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archive.today

How to test

Scene Webview

To test if the project work as it should, try running Test Archive Link And Confirm Captcha Manually task.

It will try to load url that I already confirmed it's been archived there.

At the end it should load the url on the default browser. Since mine is LinkSheet, it will prompt me with options like pre Android 12.

Debugging mode

Set the debug variable to true, see #How to use. It will display the webview as an overlay.

Others

The project also includes my setup with LinkSheet and my gesture project. I leave it there to serve as examples on how I use it. I'm too lazy to remove them.

Feel free to edit the code to suit your likings :)

My setup that uses gesture and get screen info action.

Ah yeah, if there is a bot check. You might want to open the link manually via Tasker's webview.

Example via the HtmlReader here.

source(new URL("https://gist.githubusercontent.com/mqwec43as/f05877fb1cd689b210ba114f9eee09e7/raw/HtmlReader.bsh"));

import bsh.This;

String prefix = "https://archive.ph/";
String url = "https://www.reddit.com/r/tasker";
This read = HtmlReader();
read.setUrl(prefix + url);
read.showOverlay(true);
read.setWaitingPeriod(6000);
String result = read.load();

Not only have all my scene v2 buttons lost all their texts, I can't even find the option to give them a label that shows up in the scene again. Is this intentional?

This happened across all my scenes v2 and only affects buttons, not segrows for example

I'm looking for an option/Project to add any Wi-Fi I connect with to my Trusted variable.

I presume this would be something like...

1) Event to watch for Wi-Fi connections

2) Run WIFII Action to get SSID

3) Display a popup which includes my Trusted variable

4) Ability to check a box next to the variable

5) Add SSID to some list

I found the below great Project and feel I could maybe add to this?

Hello there!

Here is a simple,but useful clipboard text editor with "search and replace all" function. I was tired of copy&pasting from Tasker to a text editor app and back, when a single line i Tasker is not enough, like longer arrs,JSONs and so on. Also useful if you need to replace a coma for a dot in all instances,for example.For quick use,its best to have it set on a hardware button long press,or similar way to bring it up fast any time.

Seeing more accessibility failures for autoinput recently. dont know what changed or updated but frustrating. on a fold7

anyone else seeing the same issue?

I don't know if anyone already thought of this and posted about it, but here it goes.

I figured: why not let Claude code create a Tasker specialist project that is saved. A project which I can return to and ask questions and get help. So I got started, had every reference downloaded that exists about Tasker through Claude code's research and my own hints and links. Then Claude code built an indexer that indexes a Tasker backup into a database of sorts that helps Claude code to quickly look up things and understand connections and concepts.

I also allowed it access to an Android emulator where I had Tasker installed with my setup so that it can tinker around as needed. I started testing it, asking it questions about my tasks, and it gave very good answers.

It was time for the grand finale: I asked it a question about a very complicated bug that had been plauging my setup for years because I just cannot find a fix for it and why it happens. Claude code when to work, chew on it for a good 8 minutes, it tested a few theories in the emulator, then it spits out the truth I hadn't been able to find:

It was a race condition between 2 plugin calls. Despite them being in a certain intended order, they still landed in the opposite order under certain specific circumstances. I was just blown away. Since then, I've been using this Tasker Claude Code project extensively. Both as a helper, but also to save time. Instead of searching in Tasker for things that cannot be covered by one or even several search terms, I can ask Claude code to investigate a concept and come up with very competent solutions and suggestions when needed to complicated problems.

Not to mention the time I said, hey... I feel my Tasker setup is using a little too much battery, but I have no idea what is causing it (another thing I've post-poned looking at for years because it's complicated and takes forever to do). It worked for a few minutes, then gave me a list of the top reasons. It was easy fixes to things I hadn't considered. Battery usage on screen off went down from 1,7% to 1,0% overnight.

It's been VERY useful and a true marble in my Tasker life. JUST USE IT PEOPLE if you are not already doing so. It's worth the Claude pro subscription alone.
