If you explain more about your app, what it does, what you want to achieve with
Tasker interaction there might be an alternative.

Ok, I try.

I have fitness tracker Xiaomi MiBand. 
There is an app MiFit for it.
But this app haven't widget and open API. Also, this app haven't periodicaly autosync with tracker.
Therefore, we create profile to Tasker, which periodically start app and synchronize data.
Recieved data of currant activities stored in Taskers vars.
Next step, I want to put this info to widget on MIUI firmware.
I can create my own theme for widget be means of MAML http://wiki.dev.xiaomi.com/index.php?title=MAML_tutorial
But in this MAML there is only one possibility to get third-party data - Content Provider.

Ah, if a ContentProvider is the only possibility for the thing you want to use the data with,
then it's unlikely to be possible unfortunately.

Since I now realise you're not an app developer, you should really be over on the support
board BTW:

More chance of getting someone who has an idea there.
