After following the directions here I get the following error message in Home Assistant when setting up a Tasker HTTP request blueprint: Message malformed: Entity target_devices is neither a valid entity ID nor a valid UUID for dictionary value @ data['entity_id']

I'm running Home Assistant Core 2024.8.3 Frontend 20240809.0 as a Docker container.

When I use the AutoBarcode plugin to generate a QR code from the text 'Hello World' it returns a QR code with the decoded text 'Hello World"'. So it accidentally adds a " at the end.

Is this a Bug or a config Problem on my side?

I have faced some problem which is when i setText using autoinput, it will seperate my variable with comma automatically, even though i set the seperator empty or change it to other things beside comma. I have try as many method as I can, but it's still not working. This issues only appears on setText and appendText. For example, I have a variable "Hello, How are you?". The text paste out will be "Hello" only. Actually the seperator is not working at all, when i change the variable to "Hello @ How are you?", and set seperator to "@", its not

When sending notifications to android, it allows to set a timeout, after which the notification disappears automatically.

Could tasker also support this feature when using the notifiy action?

Hi,

My kid app, created using App Factory 6.3.12, is using a Near WiFi (by MAC Address) trigger in its profile.

It is only working on a phone that has Tasker installed and enabled (with all profiles disabled).

If Tasker is not installed on the phone, or installed but disabled, the profile's Near WiFi context will not fire. Tested on Samsung evices (Z-Fold3 and S20) with Anroid 14, all permissions granted.

Any advise about this? 

Thanks

Hi Joa,

I recently updated the Tasker app, and since then, I've encountered a problem. When I open the app, it prompts me to watch a video about the new features, but the app freezes at this point. Shortly after, a system error window appears.

Could you please advise on how to resolve this issue? If a reinstallation is necessary, could you also guide me on how to back up my data without accessing the app, as it currently doesn't allow me to do so?

Thank you for your assistance.

Hi Joao,

I am currently importing and exporting my projects to different mobile devices. However, each time I do this, if the project shares tasks or uses profiles from another project, they get mixed up upon import. This makes it difficult for me to determine which tasks and profiles belong to which project.

Is there a way to optimize this process so that tasks, profiles, etc., do not get mixed up and remain within their respective projects?

Thank you for your assistance

I hope you can add animations to make "show and destroy scene" seem more lively, such as:

•pop-up: provides an attractive effect when used. attracts more user attention to something displayed in the scene.

•fade: as in video cinematography, this can have a dramatic effect. suitable for some situations.

Having a choice of effects on the scene will increase added value to the user experience.

I hope you and the development team can consider the suggestions I gave.

Thank You.

For fields like number and email there is a corresponding _type field so that you can tell if the phone number or email address is a work or home one. I need to know if an address (eg street, city, etc) that is returned is a work/home/other address.

Hope to support, hope to support App Bao or Huawei Store, um, and other internal Chinese mainland.The application store can pay in the store in this way, and the current payment method is more troublesome.

China usually pays by WeChat or Alipay.

Can you provide a feature to hide project/profiles or passwore-lock project/profiles for habits control and for parental control?

I have a samsung s22 ultra with android 14. When the scrren is on the time event triggers as it should but when its off it does not trigger. I have set battery unrestricted for tasker and set use reliable alarm always. I see that tasker does not request premission for alarms and reminders maybe that the issue?

Currently, if we want to react to a branch ending in error, this is necessary:

Is there any reason for the If, Else and End If actions clearing the %err variable? If the %err variable was left alone by these actions, the task could be written more simply:

Currently the options available to play music in Tasker include: 

1. Music Play 2. Music Play Dir 3. Music Skip 4. Music Stop 5. Music Back

I request the addition of

1. Music Pause/Play (to pause and then continue the currently playing file) 2. A way to skip to the next song / go back songs (the current skip feature can accomplish this by jumping forward like 5 minutes but there is no way to go back to the start or to previous songs) 3. A way to select the Stream in Music Play Dir.  Currently only Music Play has

I currently send all exported descriptions to a text editor via the clipboard. This helps with debugging and allows me to give them a final review before posting.

The issue is that this overwrites the current value of the clipboard. 

Could we add a way to export to a variable?

In the past there was an official older releases of the AppFactory at:

But, now this is not available, can you please give us the OFFICIAL download link of older releases of the AppFactory?

Not sure what's changed but any time I put my phone in airplane mode now I eventually get the following error stating 'Trial Over'. Once I'm back into service it seems to be normal. 

Hello, I believe I've encountered a bug in either Tasker or AutoInput.

If the AutoInput UI Query action times out and Continue Task After Error is ticked, each subsequent AutoInput action will timeout after either 4000ms or 5000ms with Error 1313911465 Action timed out, even if the subsequent action has a higher timeout or no timeout at all.

This bug can easily be reproduced with two actions: 

The action timeout values are arbitrary, and the bug still occurs with a wait between the actions. This bug occurs not only with UI Query but also Action and Gesture but not Actions

Another day, another feature taken away by Google (seriously, what have they been up to lately?).

As you're all well aware by now, Android 14 made "permanent" notifications dismissible now, breaking many apps along the way – including our dear Tasker, most notably. I've been missing the old notification's functionality ever since the update but apparently there's a rather easy fix for this,  at least in theory.

We can somewhat bring back most of the old functionality back by automatically showing any permanent Tasker notifications as soon as they're dismissed. This is probably easier said than done as every Tasker
