Send command to tasker through Google assistant

[Viki Malik]

Hi

What I want is if we say "hey Google". Google assistant opens and tasker task should trigger without saying "ask autovoice" I knew it can be done by using auto input by clicking on Google key board and write ask autovoice and send before saying command

But don't know how to implement it

Thanks

I am doing this with a combination of Join and IFTTT.
There is a tutorial made by Joao on his website.
It works just perfect 👌

Hi looki

Is it fast enough

Yes it is immediate, as long as you have a network connection. That is the only caveat I think...

Please enable popups on the website, thanks.

This is the tutorial: http://forum.joaoapps.com/index.php?resources/integrate-google-assistant-with-tasker-using-join-ifttt.206/

Hi João Dias

>Please enable popups on the website, thanks.

I got that thanks 

I setup as per the instruction given on the website 

Goggle assistant is responding according to command but task is not firing(i used join recieved push) 

Thanks 

[João Dias]

Are you receiving the push in Join?

[Viki Malik]

No

[Viki Malik]

>Are you receiving the push in Join?

No I am not receiving the join push text 

[João Dias]

Does the Join API work for you if not used through IFTTT?

[Viki Malik]

Yes it works

[João Dias]

Then the issue is in your IFTTT setup :)

[Viki Malik]

So.... What do you recommend

[João Dias]

Checking the URL you used in IFTTT

[Viki Malik]

I think url is correct 

[Looki 1975]

On a general note...

I find it quite a pain to have to update the device number each time I reset the phone and reinstall Join...

The same phone is seen as a different device by Join... And I have to go through all IFTTT triggers to update the device number... A real pain...

Is there a way to overcome this?
Maybe I missed something?

[João Dias]

Just use the device name instead of id :) That way you can keep the same URL between installs.

[Looki75]

Wow, I didn't know that! Great!

Thanks

[Viki Malik]

Hi João

I am getting (updating push history notification for a fraction of second in the notification bar) 

But nothing happens after that 

--

[Viki Malik]

Correction :-uploading instead of updating

[João Dias]

So you ARE getting the Join push from IFTTT afterall?

[Viki Malik]

Yes

[João Dias]

But before you said you weren't. What changed?

[Viki Malik]

I redo everything and use my device name on joinappspot in device name list

[João Dias]

Oh great :)

So you're getting the push but Tasker is not responding?

[Viki Malik]

Yes I think uploading push history means I am getting the join push. Right

Yes tasker is not responding 

[Viki Malik]

I made an applet on ifftt to send me a mail and it worked 

[João Dias]

Can you please try this version and make sure you're on the Tasker beta?  Thanks

[Viki Malik]

I was on tasker beta but open file action, disable Tasker to name a few didn't worked so I revert back to regular version 

[Viki Malik]

Hi João Dias

Please read my previous post 

Thanks 

[João Dias]

I did read it :) But it would be great if you could try the beta.

[Viki Malik]

But my other tasks which use action (open file) stop working 

[João Dias]

Open File will be fixed for the next beta. Sorry about that.

[Viki Malik]

So what do you suggest should I wait for that or is there any other way to send natural language command to tasker through Google assistant

Thanks 

[João Dias]

Did you try using AutoVoice?

[Looki75]

With Autovoice don't you have to say the "Autovoice" prefix prior to each command?

[João Dias]

Yes, but you can create shortcuts (now called routines) to bypass that in some cases.

[Viki Malik]

Hi João

How are these routine set up, its there any tutorial

Thanks 

[João Dias]

It's almost the same as shortcuts only you can add multiple actions. Give it a try, it's not hard :)

[Viki Malik]

Could you please direct me to any tutorial cause I have no idea how to do this

Thanks 

[João Dias]

What part? Did you try going into the Routines option yet?

[Viki Malik]

No:(

[João Dias]

Well, go in then and give it a try ;)

[Viki Malik]

Where are  routines 

[João Dias]

Open Google Assistant -> Click blue icon on the top right -> menu -> settings -> Routines at the bottom

[Viki Malik]

Open Google Assistant -> Click blue icon on the top right -> menu -> settings -> PLEASE SEE THE PIC

I can't find it 

[João Dias]

Press the menu button on the top right there.
