"Quick Settings" Toggle Tiles by Tasker on Android

[schumi2004]

No unfortunately I did not made any progress, still stuck on the current status part.
I did managed to flip the switch.
Reinstalled my phone today and will start over tomorrow. Will share my project once I got it working.

/Edit
I see that another guide is updated recently, maybe this will help you? I will use that tomorrow.

Using Tasker with Home Assistant (V2)

Hi everyone ! A year ago, I posted a tutorial showing how to use Tasker with Home Assistant. After more that 10 thousands views, I’ve decided to update the tutorial so it’s easier to follow, with better screenshots and better ways to identify problems It also uses new features of Tasker, such as HTTP headers. Let’s get started ! 1. Create a token First of all, go the the “Long-Lived Access Tokens” section at the bottom of the Profile page of your Home Assistant. This page can be ac…

Got it working.
Follow the first 3 steps from here: ⚙️ Using Tasker with Home Assistant (V2)
And then import this task and change icon for it: Test_Floorlight.tsk.xml https://pastebin.com/U79JT09s
Add tile and it should work.

Thanks @schumi2004 I followed the guide the first 3 steps. And I downloaded your Test_Floorlight.tsk.xml and imported it to Tasker task section. But there seems to be something wrong with it, because when I click the task I cannot edit it, it asks me to select another task?

[schumi2004]

That is strange.
Maybe this works better using images?
Note: Floorlight has changed to Woonkamer or Kamer in my situation.

Task overview:
First 2 steps are from other topic, 3 - 8 from fanuch
Change task icon at bottom, mine has a lightbulb now.

Step 1

Step 2

Tasker Quick Settings Task

[nelbs]

Is there a way to set two quick settings task that act like toggles? When i try this the second toggles interacts strangely enough with the first one.

[jockebq]

Thank you so much! It is almost working for me. I can toggle a device on and off but the state is not returned. It will flash off both when it is turned on or off. And the switch won’t change from active to not active either. This is how I get the state {{ states(“switch.livingroom_tv”) }}
And I followed your guide for everything!

[schumi2004]

If you did what I did then it should work.
I would suggest to make separate TEST tasks and follow the suggestion done in linked topic under section:

4. Create your own tasks

Part 1 - Calling a service

If you’re not familiar with Home Assistant services, I suggest you go to the Developper tools > Services page of your Home Assistant and try doing things first.

I used the developer tools services page to show me the current status reported back so i could test the actual code to use in Step 2

@nelbs
Only thing i can think of is that you’r linking tasks to each other?
Can you explain your tasks/setup you created and your goal?
I only have 1 toggle but i have a feeling you created more then 1?

[jockebq]

Got it to work, it was actually the state of the switch I tested with that did not respond quick enough. So I set a 5 sec wait and now it works great.

I have the same question as @nelbs
Added a second quick setting and when I click it, it will change the first toggle to the same as the one I clicked. It seems you can only have one toggle switch in quick settings? Is there any way to add more than one?

[schumi2004]

I think you can do using AutoNotification.

I’m trying to turn on two lights using the ‘group.’ entity, it works but isn’t great as the lights don’t turn on and off in order, and it’s either 1 light on and the other off, different state with each toggle.

Also, I’m getting the error: Error 400: {'message": "Error rendering template: Template SyntaxEr- ror: unexpected char at 10") each time I press the toggle.

Any ideas? thanks

[schumi2004]

Can you post your task xml?
