http requests gives errors if starting with capital H (Http)
I'm calling a bunch of URLs with HTTP Request on various events. Noticed that these don't work if the url starts with a capital Http - it must be lowercase http.

Seems to have issues distinquisting between similar phone numbers
We need to call number 2*1500 to sign in to our phone network, and 2**1500 to sign out.
Very similar numbers, as you can see.
Tasker seems to be a bit confused about this. Trying to add two tasks - one when calling 2*1500 and another when calling 2**1500
The solution was to have contacts with these numbers (that we had already) and then in Tasker use the name of the contact instead of the number.

Send SMS option Store In Messaging App is unchecked, but the SMS still shows up in messaging app
I have a basic profile for replying location:
Look at received texts
-> Get Location v2 (Enable location if needed)
-> Send SMS (send to %smsrf; message is map url; Store in messaging app is unchecked)
The sent sms still shows up in the default messages app (Google Messages). Does the same thing on a Pixel and Pixel 3.
Are there any suggestions as to how to stop the sent message from showing up in the messaging app?
Thanks,

Tasker blocked by Instacart Shopper App!
I've been working on a utility for the Instacart Shopper App (the one that the individuals who do the shopping for the customers use). To be clear, this is not a "bot" designed to grab batches. It is meant to download the user's info such as earnings.
This week Instacart made a change to the app that is deliberately preventing Tasker from functioning! It's seems to impact the Autoinput Action to "click" on items in the menu (all Actions and Field Types aren't working). Tasker can still click on other screen areas, but nothing associated with the menu (see attachments).

Tasker Notification Unreliable
I created a notification event that will play a song extremely loud so to wake myself up during the night if a certain notification was intercepted from a different app. The problem is that the profile does not always trigger even though a notification appears on the other app. Checking the log also shows that the event was not triggered. Attached are how I've created the profile and task.
If anyone can determine the issue just from my post please let me know else I will provide more information about my device settings, even though I've checked to make sure

Tasker deleted my recent configuration changes when I pressed on back up
I clicked on backup on google drive and my configuration was actually gone instead of being saved, I did not press the wrong button, it asked me where to save my backup, I didn't choose anything for the local storage, pressed "back" and then pressed "ok" when the prompt to save it on google drive came and I chose the exact drive folder. Couldnt restore it from the backup Maybe it had to do with the following bug: when I use the autoinput app and go on the button "use via tasker" then it loads up a different tasker configuration

Local Variable Passthrough & Child Variable Inheritance
I'm not seeing expected behaviour in 5.9.3 using Local Variable Passthrough and the Child Inheritance.
As an example;
So the value of %localvar is established in ParentTSK, then shared with SCENE1 when ParentTSK calls it, then shared with ChildTSK when SCENE1 calls it, and updated in SCENE1 via the Local Variable Passthrough.
In practice, the process does not run as expected:
As you can see, once the ChildTSK ends, even though it’s told to update the local variables in the parent task, the value of %localvar returns to its previous state.
This is not expected behaviour, %localvar from ChildTSK should

Missing permissions "Start a phone call"
Samsung Note 20 Ultra, Android 10, kernel 4.19.81, not rooted.
I'm trying to write a simple task that will send calls to voicemail if the number isn't in my address book.
I've enabled all the permissions on tasker (screenshot attached), but it still says it needs the "Start a phone call" permission when I either activate it or just try "playing" it.
Here's the error when I "play" it: (also screenshot)
18.09.27/E Tasker needs the following permission(s) for the functionality you have configured: Start a phone call 18.09.27/E End Call: don't have permission(s): Start a phone call 18.09.27/E result: stop

Any sensor event always on irrespective of other condition?
Hi,
I have a profile Call state any + any sensor state -> speakerphone On,
However, when I put my hand to proximity sensor any sensor event turns green even there is no call state.
Does it mean it keeps checking any sensor condition irrespective of other conditions and possible battery drain?
I don't have any means to validate this except reporting to you to check at your end.
Thanks.

ALERT/SAY %TIME not consistent
Task: ALERT/SAY Text: The time is %TIME
Result if 09:56: "The time is nine fifty-six."
Result if 10:28: "The time is ten point two eight."
This can be easily recreated by:
Task: ALERT/SAY Text: 09.56 10.28

Event Time "Every" doesn't work properly
While i testing with the time event with the "every" option, i realized that this doesn't count correctly. I tried with the minimum of 2 min, I wanted a task to run every 2min when when I enable this profile, but it runs before the set 2min. I think this happens when you activate the profile, doesn't count the minutes correctly

While loop in tasks stops working after a while
Hello!
I have this profile set up:
STATE -> Variable Value ~ 1
Task:
A loop in which every 5 seconds it should do a http request and check whether or not it should open an app. This includes a Wait of 5 sec and a Goto 1 after the loop ended.
This works for a while, however after 2 hours (http request no longer required the app to open), it stops working (http request now requires it to). It's just like the profile and task never existed.
I have another profile which works fine, so Tasker isn't killed. I

Custom DND suppressed effects remain in effect when Allow All used
I find if I use Custom DND with a suppressed effect (tested with Peek) then set DND to 'Allow All' the suppressed effect is still in effect.
I tested this with the following: Custom DND (with Peek suppressed) -> DND Allow All -> DND Query -> Flash %dnd_suppressed_effects().
As a workaround I use Custom DND with no suppressed effects then DND Allow All (just to clear the DND icon)

Turkish translation is very bad and misguiding. I could help with that but you haven't published any kind of e mail info.
They're probably taken from Google Translate, I was able to understand them but I translated the texts two times in my head to understand it. I can help with that, let me know please.

It seems it was solved using a custom build. It'll be great if i can get the same or even better if this came fixed in a Tasker update.
