Tasker 101 Tutorial: Lesson 19 - Trigger Task w/ Notification from ANY other Android App

In this lesson, I show you how you can use the notification from any app on your phone/tablet to trigger a Tasker Task, even have notifications from the same app trigger different things based on their title.

Alarm Xtreme sounds like a good application suggestion, i read it's description and it says that it let you choose radio (and maybe podcasts?) as your alarm and stuff!

Can I by putting YouTube channel name in the notification event title, can I automate tapping on the notification with auto input?

And will only this YouTube notification and no other trigger the task?

[LeoRam]

I'm on my way to making tasker do what i'd like... but its a long process since im not exactly a programming/computer expert... im trying to develop a whole set of Profiles & Tasks to manage all of the notifications i get from August & Nest to reduce false alarms and to notify if there is someone rummaging around the yard or in our cars. are you still actively using tasker? any new tutorials?

[NickCaveIT]

Hi, thanks for your videos. Do you know if there's a way for tasker to disable heads up notification while I'm using a specific app (e.g. periscope)? If tasker can't switch off heads up...it would be ok if I can disable notifications at all too, and maybe re-enable them when I close the app. Thank you!

[taranagnew]

can you do an updated video using the latest tasker?

[ssmoky]

I already learned a ton from your tasker videos, but I have a question. I have an app called self control which blocks other apps for a set amount of time, so I can't play games when I'm studying for example. This app displays a notification while a block is running. I want to toggle the notification LED based on wether that notification is there.
I got it to turn off the LED when the notification appears, but I was wondering if there is a way to turn it back on when the notification disappears. 
Thanks in advance =)

Hey thanks for this....it's doing pretty much what I want, except I have a slight issue. I'm trying to make certain emails notify me differently using a certain ring tone. My problem is that my regular notification ring tone plays too. I'm wondering how I can make only the special ring tone play. Thanks.

[kurtkaufman]

hollywoodfrodo, thanks for the informative video. It seems that notifications of missed calls or voicemails aren't recognized by Tasker.  I assume that the _Owner Application_ in question is the *Phone* app, but even when I leave the _Owner Application_ setting blank, no luck.

Hello

I am a ball in programming.

I'd like to be able to create a profile tasker who opens an application and issue a sound custom when a notification of it arrives.

I have autonotification, and despite all my attempts they are remained without result.

thanks in advance for all help


Ps: I have no knowledge in English je ne parle que français

+hollywoodfrodo I got a question with this. I got the Galaxy S5, which offers to set text shortcuts when you long tap one of the numbers. basically you can set 10 standard texts. But I want to use Tasker to launch an App when I long Tap 0 and intercept the built in function for the Text Shortcuts. That possible?

I am trying to add something in tasker hollywood :( Where I work I lose 3G sometimes depending where I am. A app displays "Would you like to reconnect?" my options are No and Ok. Is there a way to hit the ok button when this happens? The app is Alfred btw

[MichaelBorland]

I set up a profile that would trigger on any notification and flash a message "There was a notification." This works if I send myself a text, for example. However, I have widget (from an Android app I wrote) that posts information to the notification bar, and nothing happens at all! Is there something special I have to do when my widget posts the notification?

[tforgo]

How could I invert this? I need profile that is triggered when "Alarm" disapheres from notification.

Does anyone have a tutorial on how to cancel the one single notification if app=hangouts has a notification from a member in specific contact group stored in my Android contact settings? I have someone in my family that sends me group messages all the time so I'd like to cancel that notification, but still want to receive other hangout messages
