Yes..

"Short, nondescript questions will yield Short, nondescript answers.."

I believe you have been around long enough to at least try something then post what you have and what is not working..  Just My 2¢....

I have a profile which i want to toggle with another task, and send the status of the profile

to zoom widget.

I have searched this group and google and worked with %PACTIVE but evertime its value is empty.

I have tired Flash['Hello' If %PACTIVE ~ *,AutoReply,*] but it didn't worked.

AutoReply is my profile name which i want to toggle.

Are you talking about toggling whether a profile is enabled or toggling whether a profile is active?  The Tasker>Profile Status action can enable or disable a profile.  To toggle if it's active or not you'll have to meet or not meet the context you set up for that profile.

There's nowhere near enough information there to say what's wrong with what you've done with %PACTIVE, but you're on the right track for seeing whether or not the profile is active or not.  You'll have to use %PENABLED if you want a list of profiles that are enabled.

Make sure you have named your profiles.  (Not the automatic designation assigned by the UI)  Long press and then tap the "A" at the top of the screen to give a profile a name.

I'm guessing, since you didn't tell us, that your autoreply profile is based on SMS received or something like that. If so, this is an event context and will not show in the list of active profiles because it is nearly instantaneous.It's only active for a moment.

Yup, this would all be so easy if the OP would put some effort in and post the exported profile descriptions. He has been posting on here long enough to know this. In case he has forgotten.....

To post your profile or task here...  Long press on the profile or task name / ( 3 dot menu with 4.0+ ) export / export "DESCRIPTION" to clipboard (not XML)

Any linked tasks will be exported with the profile they are linked to..

To be able to export, The beginner mode needs to be off and the profile needs to be named by you (Not the Tasker listed name.  Tasker will list your profile with the context name if you have not given it one).

Actually the profile reads notifications through AutoNotifications and reply through the same plugin, i'm pasting its content here.

I have a widget zooper and zoom, which has an icon, i just want to send status of profile to the widget which i don't know how to.

Profile: AutoReply (49)

Event: AutoNotification Intercept [ Configuration:Event Behaviour: true

Notification Type: Only Created Notifications

Persistency Type: Both

Has Reply Action: true ]

Enter: Anon (50)

A1: Variable Set [ Name:%ANAPP To:%anapp Do Maths:Off Append:Off ] 

A2: AutoNotification Reply [ Configuration:Reply ID: %anreplyaction

Reply Text: Sorry %antitle. I'm away right now. Package:com.joaomgcd.autonotification Name:AutoNotification Reply Timeout (Seconds):0 ] 

A3: AutoNotification Cancel [ Configuration:Other Id: %anid

Package: %anpackage

I'm not entirely certain what you mean by the "status" of the profile, but..........

This is still an event profile, so it will not appear in the %PACTIVE list. But it sounds like you want to use %PENABLED instead. This will list the profiles that are enabled, meaning the switch on the profile is turned on. If the profile is in the list, it is enabled. If it is not in the list, it is disabled. Enabled is not the same as active. When a profile is active, it's conditions are true. In order for a profile to become active, it must be enabled.
