Notification Blocking backup cannot be restored
I just found that a backup created of the list of blocked notifications in AutoNotification cannot be restored. The backup works fine and creates a BlockFilterForDB database (SQLite), which contains all the definitions and looks correct. But restoring only lets me choose the backup file and when accepted nothing more happens. I'm running Android 11 One UI 3.0 with Tasker 5.11.14 and AN v4.2.0 beta.
Thanks for looking in to this.

Installed tasker for the first time, crashed on startup. Uninstalled. Now gmail crashes on startup
I purchased and downloaded Tasker today onto my Verizon Galaxy S8.
After it installed, I tried running it, and it crashed. I tried starting it a few more times, and it crashed every time. So I uninstalled the app and got a refund.
Now my Gmail keeps crashing. I'm guessing Tasker installed some sort of hook to be able to use Gmail, but it wasn't (un)installed properly, so now Gmail itself is broken.
Is there any way to cleanup whatever it is Tasker has done to Gmail?
Oh, and I also get notifications that Email has crashed, which I don't

API POST to Home Assistant returns "Invalid JSON specified"
Hi,
I am trying to save a state to Home Assistant using the API. The POST request is working fine in postman, but not i Tasker.
When i add the header "Authorization: Bearer <token>" (replacing "<token>" with the correct token. 183 characters consisting of letters and a period. So no special characters if that is relevant). The response is "Invalid JSON specified".
If i change "Authorization" to something else it says "Unauthorized" instead.
What am i doing wrong?

ADB + Airplane Mode
To enable permission for toggle Airplane Mode only requires an ADB appops command be run only once. I have verified this using appops, that after device reboot, Tasker retains permission to toggle Airplane Mode without re-enabling ADB wifi.
Yet trying to toggle Airplane Mode in Tasker will fail due to ADB Wifi not being on. Tasker does not attempt to toggle Airplane Mode, even though it already has permission.
If Tasker can retain permissions, then enabling ADB Wifi after reboot appears unnecessary.
Thank you

Deactivation - Call Redirection Problem
I installed and used TASKER first yesterday. Therefore i created a profile (if telephone rings) that a task call redirection (german: Rufumleitung) will start.
That worked perfectly. But then after testing i wanted to manually disable therefore i moved the toggle to grey on profile (if telephone rings) but recognized that android holds the message that all calls will be redirected.
I testet it and it is true, also with deactivation the option still stays and all calls are redirected. I never made other setting on android therefore therefore i must come from tasker...
Now is this a bug or

Bluetooth Connected profiles don't fire when a Name variable is used
Tasker is not firing a Bluetooth Connected event (Profile) if I put a string in the Name variable in the event.
This is a Profile that I've used for years, and it recently stopped working - after Tasker and my Phone both updated, so I'm not sure which one may have caused the bug.
The profile triggers an action to set a sound/volume profile in another app, whenever my truck's bluetooth connects to my phone. But for testing, I created an even simpler profile and gave it one action: to produce a popup message "BT Connected".
I tested this profile

Phone Ringing Caller Name Failure
Phone ringing event only triggers on Blank, Any, or My Contact*. (The * is required). Caller Name In (%CNAME) only returns GMail, never a name.)
The Phone Ringing event does trigger on phone numbers 555123456* (Yup the * is required) and %CNAME will be GMail.
Phone Ringing Event triggering on Contacts Labels would be great!

KEYBOARD action causes screen keyboard to disappear then reappear.
Thanks for such an amazing tool!
I just used a 9 button scene and KEYBOARD action to create a DPAD and give myself the &^%$#@!!! arrow keys (and, eventually, the Delete key) missing from most keyboards.
Good news: It works!
Bad news:
The keyboard disappears, then reappears after a beat.
It's kind of jarring to use, as-is.
Setting the "don't restore keyboard" flag is an ok workaround, but if it's possible to choose not to hide the keyboard that would be useful.

Missing Permissions notification popping up frequently
Hi! Whenever a task is saved or when closing Tasker, this message shows Tasker needs the following permissions(s) for the functionality you have configured: Access fine location *Variable %WIFII The problem is, I'm aware the variable works with location only, but I denied this permission in purpose, because it is not needed for what I'm trying to accomplish. Only THAT variable is necessary for my task. Now, is there a way to prevent this notifications to pop up again and again? Because it is driving me crazy to click on cancel every time I try to configure some tasks. If
