Found a great tutorial on using Tasker with a Chamberlain MyQ garage door opener.

Has anyone gotten this to work? 

 I'm using the myQ universal hub on a craftsman garage door opener.  I'm able to use the MyQ app successfully, however I'm trying to control the garage door opener with my android watch.  Unfortunately autoinput does not control the Chamberlain app, so I'm trying to use tasker to directly control the myQ device using the tasker stuff below. 

I get a 312 error when trying to open or close the garage door by running the task. A search for the 312 error mentions that the garage door is only set up to monitor the garage door and that the garage door opener may not have finished programming, and to touch portion of the screen in the app.  I tapped the area of the screen they mention and nothing happens.  I don't know how the unit can be set to monitor only since I am able to use the app OK. 

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Thanks to Joe on pointing out the way.

I know for a fact that the Autoinput won't interact with certain "web based" buttons, i.e. the ones within the MyQ app.    The method the link referred to works fine for me, I got an old GDO (not MyQ enabled) and linked to a MyQ Garage product (not Internet gateway product)  http://www.chamberlain.com/smartphone-control-products/myq-garage/model-myq-g0201

Unfortunatly I am unable to log in now.  Contacted the writer of the instructions and he said he hasnt the time to work on it and probably wont but said I could use the same method to update the code. 

To bad its over my head and I'm unable to get the link in postman to work anymore. It errors now so they must have changed something in the security at Chamberlain.

Agreed, it worked so well before. I used this method to open and close the garage door for a motorcycle, just verbally said, open garage door... it was brilliant
