Whenever I choose an app activity (app package + activity class) to run in Automate, it receives permission denial and the stops. It sounds like this:

"java.lang.SecurityException: Permission Denial: starting Intent { flg=0x10040000 cmp=com.sony.tvsideview.phone/com.sony.tvsideview.functions.remote.RemoteActivity } from ProcessRecord{44d6216 788:com.llamalab.automate:background/u0a134} (pid=788, uid=10134) not exported from uid 10142"

Can anyone give me a solution to this please?

The Activity you're trying to start is permission protected, and can only be started by the app itself, not from a another app.

Wow thanks :) I'm wondering if we can change the permission of the target app to 'cope' with Automate

No, removing the permission would create a security breach in the app your trying to start.

Thanks, Nick

The solution can only be implemented in the other app, not Automate.
