    %HTTPD variable not working

    Shravan Rajinikanth · 3 · Last reply by João Dias

    When I make a HTTP POST request, the %HTTPD variable isn't being set with the response data. My response code is 200 and the output file is being set correctly. But when printing %HTTPD, the string "%HTTPD" is displayed. The response content type is application/json.

    Slider Scene Element Bugs

    Robert L Ryan · 2 · Last reply by Mahmoud Bader
    • Using the Element Value action on a slider, with the scene visible, fails to activate the Value Selected event task. The documentation clearly states that changing the slider value with this action should activate the event task.
    • The text for the indicators does not scale with screen resolution, making them practically useless. On my device they look like periods.
    • There is no way to change the color or width of the line the thumb slides on. Sky blue isn't always the best choice.
    • There is no obvious way to make a vertical slider.
    • During touch movement, the slider value does not

    Does not detect app launched if opened from recents in Android P. Only when launched from app icon or launcher.

    Sean Culligan · 4 · Last reply by Moha Said

    I have a profile that detects when certain apps are launched. I found that if you launch the app from the app icon or launcher, it works fine (even if the app is currently in the recents list). If you re-open the app from the recents list, it doesn't detect the app as running or sometimes detects it but takes a long time and possibly only when you pull down the notifications. 

    Android version: 9

    Join no longer triggering Tasker profile

    Chris Thielker · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    My join commands that I use to create notifications in Tasker no longer are triggering Tasker to run tasks. Nothing has changed in my Tasker or server side. The task runs fine when triggered manually in Tasker.

    Cannot prevent services from accessing network

    Reuben Firmin · 1 · Last reply by João Dias

    I'm on a limited bandwidth wifi connection. Every day around 1PM Google Play Services gets online and uses 3Mb for about 10 minutes, which severely degrades the internet for all other clients.

    I set up a task & profile to prevent Play (the app) from accessing the network during the day. That didn't work - looks like Play (the service) is the real culprit. But, there's no way (it seems) to prevent a service from accessing it.

    So, then I set up a rule to deny all network access between certain hours (really it needs a location in the profile

    MS Exchange calendar availability nor detected correctly

    ArnaudB88 · 0 · Posted

    Very detailed background: Calendar entries can have different availability options to mark a calendar entry as "free" or "busy". A normal calendar entry for a meeting would be marked as "busy" and is the default. You can also have an entry marked as "free" when you want more of a reminder of a meeting that you might not attend. This concept exists in both Google Calendar and Microsoft Exchange/Outlook. Google Calendar shows this setting as "Show me as" with options Available and Busy and Exchange shows this setting as "Status" with options Busy, Free, Tentative, or Out of Office.

    Bug found: Race condition when updating scene elements

    Noel Yap · 0 · Posted

    When programmatically updating two scene elements, one element will get the value of the other, at least for Number Pickers. `new_val` acts like a Singleton having just one state.

    I've been seeing this behavior for the Expiry Hours element. Logging shows one value of `%new_val` before the assignment and a different value after the assignment.

    Logging shows `eh` eventually getting the value meant for `em`.
