Hi guys,
Does anyone know if there is a way for Google Assistant (on Android phone) to execute a Tasker Task? (non rooted)
Thanks in advance.
Use AutoVoice. Set up a shortcut in Assistant to trigger AutoVoice, then an AutoVoice command in Tasker to execute the task.
How to make Google Now/Assistant execute Tasker tasks (using Autovoice)
Open Google app
>Settings>Google Assistant Settings>Shortcuts
Add Shortcut (ex. System lock)
°When I say…
system lock
°Google Assistant should do…
ask autovoice system lock
Note: the phrase “ask autovoice” sends a command to Autovoice - command: system lock
Open Tasker
Add Profile: State>Plugin>Autovoice>Recognized
Edit Properties
Edit Configuration: The easy way.
Command: system lock
Edit Configuration: The hard way.
Command/Command Filter: system lock
(Enable/Check) Event Behavior
(Enable/Check) Use RegEx
>Back
>Finish
Add Task for the Profile you created
(Any)

Yes, I have several IFTTT applets which do this using their Google Assistant channel which send a Pushover(Tasker plugin) push to Tasker and trigger a profile.
Commandr for Google Now can run any Tasker Task with a voice shortcut.

I was wondering if it would be possible to use tasker to send intents to activate certain moto features during more refined contexts. Like have the command talk to me executed to turn on "talk to me" or sleeping mode etc.
I'll preface this with I'm a complete newb when it comes to Tasker and plug ins. With that said, I'm attempting to create a task that can be triggered by my google home to cast a web url camera stream to my Shield. I've been able to create the Tasker Task to stream it using AutoCast to the shield. If I run that task manually inside Tasker, it works everytime. However, I'm unable to get Autovoice to trigger that Task. I've created a profile, (New, Event, Plugin, AutoVoice, Recognized) configured the commands in autovoice and linked it to the task in Tasker. For whatever reason, anytime I ask Google Assistant to "Ask autovoice (command name)", I get an autovoice response, "Command sent (command name)" but I never see a toast message on my Note 8, where I've configured everything, and the task is never ran. I'm assuming I'm missing something in the autovoice configuration. Can anyone shine some light on what I may be doing wrong? I appreciate any assistance I can get. Also, if I left out any pertinent information, please let me know.
Also, if I test the command from inside the autovoice app, I do get the toast message and the task triggers. To my untrained eye, it definitely seems like google assistant just isn't communicating with autovoice, in the way it should be.
I was able to get this working. My issue was, I did not have a remote device selected to run the autovoice commands. Once I selected that, I was able to get this working. Just updating in case someone stumbles upon this in the future.
Hi guys, when I try to send an autovoice command through the normal 'ask autovoice to...', the command is executed and then autovoice stay in wait for others commands.
The problem happens when I try to send command with a shortcut of Google assistant... Only receiving the response 'command sended' and then autovoice left the conversation...
Ok you need to have an Autovoice Profile in place to react to the Google Assistant message. In Google assistant (Short cut) Ask Autovoice to...... In Tasker, Create a profile with a AutoVoice Recognised Event listening for the short cut text, I've noticed in the past that it helps to use exactly the same case etc. This will then link to a Tasker 'Task' to actually perform what you want it to do.

Could that method be used to ask autovoice to trigger the news briefing of google assistant? I wold like to replace google assistant but do not want to lose my news..
Hi, If you can create a tasker event that will open your news feed, then I don't see why not.
Hi,
For us that owns a chinese phone with unrooted chinese ROM, still didn't saw a way to launch Google VOice Assistant with the dedicated MI AI button.
I can create and assign a command in chinese to the Press action like "打开 Maps" or "打开 WhatsApp" (inside MI AI config) and it works, opening the google Maps app or WhatsApp
But it don't work for an activity, like voice search.
There are some apps that create a shortcut to activities, but I can't find a way to launch this shortcut.
Other way, maybe, is someone create a apk with a name like "LaunchVoice" (or something else) with the function of only open the activity google voice search.
And then, open this app with the command above "打开 LaunchVoice".
What do you think?
Thanks
I have a task setup and is triggered by autovoice. On alexa app i have created a routine to launch the command using the action 'ask autovoice (name of command)'.
I say to echo speaker to trigger the routine using my set command and instead of the task running on my phone it will reply with 'say your autovoice command'.
I know that I've set up autovoice correctly as I can say 'ask autovoice (name of trigger' and it will work fine. So the issue is when I set a routine it will not run the trigger just open the autovoice skill so I can say the trigger.
Anyone else experiencing this and got a solution.
FYI I just switched from Google Nest speakers as the speakers were causing many issues for me however Google can run the routine without issues.
