Hi everyone!

Is it possible to toggle "Touch Sensitivity" (also called "Glove Mode") with Tasker without root access, please? I know, it can be done with AutoInput (Settings / Advanced features / Touch sensitivity - on Samsung Galaxy A8 2018, Oreo, stock ROM).
But I need to toggle it on incoming call (Event - Phone ringing) and there isn’t way to go to Settings with AutoInput.

Many thanks for future suggestions

For others, who are looking for this setting (on Galaxy A8 2018, Oreo)

I have created Custom Setting action, but can’t see "Touch sensitivity" or "Glove mode" in Name field (Variable Select)
Then I have used "Magnifying glass" button instead of "Variable Select" button and... 
...yes, there is auto_adjust_touch and value can be 0 or (or it can be toggled)
I have found it by "SELECT SETTING" but "FIND" works also great!

All I wanted to do, was:
• Incoming call - turn Brightness to MAX and increase Touch sensitivity (due to mirror flip case) - so I can clearly see who is calling and can accept or reject call with closed flip case
• End call - turn Brightness to AUTO and decrease Touch sensitivity
I’m testing which way will it be more stable:
- Profile based on "Event" or "State" (sometimes doesn’t work turning Brightness to MAX or increasing Touch sensitivity).

Maybe, it helps to somebody

Many thanks to João Dias!!!

Sounds good. I am now living in a cold climate, so have gloves that work on touch screens. I still need to turn on the sensitivity.... so thinking of making it a quick tile. Tx
