    Dynamic path in modified file event

    Lapo Falcone · 1 · Last reply by Lapo Falcone

    I'd like to be able to use a variable to identify the path to the folder I want to guard. At the moment this seems not to be possible, since if I use a variable with the name of the folder then the profile doesn't react to any event. It would be very useful!

    Add an internal Stopwatch as a Task

    Henry · 0 · Posted

    A stopwatch as a Task.

    For example in the “event” of screen turned on , We could be able to add a stopwatch task to start time counting up and outputs a variable so that we could know how much time has elapsed

    I know we could do that by doing maths on TIMES var, but there are times that the stopwatch itself is needed like pausing it and resuming it and still would be able to have a variable to output the seconds or time past

    Project Export Without Including Profiles,Tasks,Scenes from Other Projects

    agnostic-apollo · 0 · Posted

    Can you add support for project export without including tasks/scenes/profiles from other projects.

    The problem is that say you have 3 projects. project 1 and 2 use common helper profiles,tasks and scenes which are all defined in project 3. Now if you export project 1 and 2 and share it with someone. They will only be able to import project 1 and importing project 2 will fail because when they imported project 1 all the helper tasks from project 3 were also imported, now they cant import project 2 because tasker already contains tasks with the same name.

    Moreover when

    Base Project Vars/Scenes/Tasks Only

    Somesh · 0 · Posted

    An option in the settings to Enable/Disable Project-Only Elements.

    The idea is that when this option is turned on, while in the menu for selecting the required Variable/Scene/Task, only the ones in the current project will be shown rather than showing all the Variable/Scenes/Tasks available in the whole.

    This would come very handy for people with large number of projects so that they don't have to search within a large number of other Vars/Scenes/Tasks to select the one they desire.

    Use headers in HTTP POST (and any other related HTTP Methods)

    The ability to use headers (both, being able to send custom headers, and also see received headers) in HTTP POST (and other HTTP methods) would be extremely useful for me and other users.

    Feature Request: Detect the current foreground activity and make it as a state.

    Jackal Zhao · 0 · Posted

    As we all know, Tasker have an App context to detect the foreground activity and run tasks, but there is no way to detect the activity. I can't make Tasker decide whether to perform a task according to the current activity.when a event happened(of course Shell code can detect the activity, but shell is too slow)

    Jay · 1 · Last reply by Richard Kemp

    The kid app's preference 'Maximum Tasks Queued' is just 10 and cannot be set by user.  So, the kid app do not work properly sometimes.

    I really want to set it when exporting apps.

    Android TV Oreo accessibility problems

    joq3 · 3 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hi,

    When I activate accessibility for Tasker on my Android TV (Mi Box) running Oreo I can no longer access the left bar of apps, only the cards on the right.

    Check the attached image, normally you can access everything shown in the picture. But as soon as I activate accessibility I cannot move the "cursor" over to the left (circled in blue).

    I am 100% that Tasker is the problem, tested on two boxes, same thing.

    Confirm close of Tasker

    Martin BD · 0 · Posted

    I'd like an option to enable "Confirm Quit" i.e. "Press back again to close the app" since I often close the app unintentionally while browsing back and fourth between profiles/tasks with the on-screen navigation.

    Let plugins SET Global Variables

    Tasker Pro · 2 · Last reply by Ian Grody

    I know long ago there was a brief time where this was possible, but Pent changed the 'rules' because of a supposed 'security' issue.

    Is it possible to now solve this security issue? To make a more secure/safe connection between the plugin and Tasker to let set Global variables.

    It could even be an option that plugin devs and/or the user have to click something to agree to.

    Case in point, let's say you want to set 6 Globals at once. If they were local variables - AutoTools "Text" could handle it in one Action if it could set Globals.

    "System / Send Intent" action should support list-valued EXTRAs

    Kaarel Kaljurand · 1 · Last reply by Kaarel Kaljurand

    I want to launch an app (http://kaljurand.github.io/K6nele/) that supports list-valued EXTRAs via Tasker, but Tasker's "System / Send Intent" does not seem to support such EXTRAs. This is what is supported according to http://tasker.dinglisch.net/userguide/en/intents.html

    If the value can be parsed as an integer, long (integer ending in L), floating point number, double (float ending in D) or boolean (true/false) it will be treated as one. The value can also be forced to a simple type (long etc) or Uri via casting. The name of a Java object created via the Java Function action which is of type Parcelable can also be used (e.g. a Bundle) If

    Edit manifest of Kid App

    Agraetz83 · 0 · Posted

    I'd like to be able to edit the manifest of exported Kid Apps. This way I could remove permissions I don't want Tasker to request or add intents.

    I used to use the Notification clicked event in my apps but had to stop using it because Tasker would add the accessibility service permission to my app and there is nothing I can do about it. I don't need nor want this permission because I only read notification clicked events of notifications put up by my app. I was hoping there'd be a solution in time when the accessibility service permission

    Undo button

    Productivity · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    Hey there! It’d be awesome to have an ‘undo’ button for changes. Sometimes you make moves in task steps that you need to undo, but only for a specific action—kind of like a Ctrl+Z. Because let’s face it, just quitting the task or hitting cancel doesn’t always cut it for what you need 🤓👍
