Event based on Google Calendar Event

[Kevin Turcotte]

I have my classes for next Fall aet up in Google calendar. What I need Tasker to do is silence EVERYTHING during class, and then bring it back to its previous state once class ends. I want it to do it based on the events in Google calendar, if possible. I've looked through the options, but only seem to be able to do this based on date/time.

I am not sure what you mean based on events?  But there have been several great in depth discussions on this silence by calendar appointments recently.  You could start by taking a look at those posted tasks/profiles and start from there.  I am sure someone would be willing to help you once you start to get stuck on something.

Okay, so I have this setup for myself already, but I have an extra step. I built a notification to pull the data from the calendar and let me know what my next class was, room #, time, and description.

Simply to do what you want. Make sure each event is in it's own calendar. You know under Google make a calendar called class schedule and then make sure each event is listed under that. This will make it so Tasker only reads events from your classes and not anything else, unless it's in that specific calendar.

Under Tasker profile>state>app>calendar entry. Set the calendar to class schedule or whatever it's named (TO DO THIS MAKE SURE IT IS SYNCED TO YOUR PHONE FIRST. I made mine under my school account so I had to add the school account to my phone before this read, if you did so you will have to do the same).

Now your done. Make the task run silent mode and the exit run vibrate or just leave it out and it will automatically turn it to whatever it last was.

My setup will do a morning pull and get the next 5 classes off of my Google calendar using HTTP get and then set each one to a variable. As my class ends I make it so it changes the notification to show me my next class and the one after that (next 2 classes). But you won't need this since all you want is silent mode

Can you explain this further or upload your xml? How did set to get the next 5 entries of you calendar and also how do you store each one in an extra variable?
