[HELP] Create a Task That Requests a Payment Via Google Pay - Tasker Tips & Tricks

Hi all! I'm new to Tasker, and I'm hoping to use it to initiate a payment request through Google Pay, hopefully using the Android Messages app.
Here's my situation: I have auto-pay set up for Netflix, and since I'll often forget to collect the portion of the bill that is supposed to be covered by the other users of my account, I want to create a task that will operate on these rules: If I receive a Netflix auto-pay notification, then send a Google Pay request to the other users of my Netflix account. The "if" side of the equation is easy, it's the "then" side that I'm having a hard time figuring out. I know Tasker can send SMS messages, so I'm hoping there's a way to let Tasker use the Google Pay features built into Android Messages.
Any advice would be appreciated! Thank you!

While a Google Pay request is preferred, I would also be happy with making a Venmo request. I know PayPal has a REST API, but using it in a live environment requires a Premium or Business account.

Free Exchange Mail Service W/ Push Email And Active Sync

Free exchange mail service for your pocket pc with Outlook Web Access
I run an exchange server and I am welcoming pocketpc users that are in need of an exchange account to activesync with. This service also offers Direct Push for those of you that have have this on your PocketPC.
Its totally free and has outlook web access, to sign-up simply visit http://www.port88.org/signup.php and I'll set you up.

This is something I do in my spare time for fun, so it may take me 24 hours before I get you set up. But being a Wizard/MDA user myself, I have found this to be a great tool.
Obviously all this cost money, and lots of it. I have had a few people donate to the cause which has been a great help. But some users ask me for special features that I normally would not offer to a basic user. Well the solution is simple, if more people donate (even a small ammount) I will be able to upgrade the server with more space and better processing power, and in turn more services will be free for everyone to use.
So if you like the service and feel that you can contribute, please send paypal payments to [email protected]

i need someone to set up a form that takes the persons first and last name, origin (country and state) prefered username and dob and then a dropdown box with the type of service they want. then that would post to a DB (mysql) using PHP and also send me and email with the info as well as a confirmation email to the person sending the request.
so do you think you could help me out??

Your Paypal account has been restricted

If you get this email....DONT CLICK THE LINK......!
THIS IS A FAKE!​
They Hack your account and steel your Money!
Here the original Email i get today:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear ........ ,
PayPal is constantly working to ensure security by regularly screening the accounts in our system. We recently reviewed your account, and we need more information to help us provide you with a secure service. Until we can collect this information, your access to your account features will be restricted. We would like to restore your access as soon as possible, and we apologize for the inconvenience.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why is my account access restricted?
Your account access has been restricted for the following reason(s):
· 1. Feb. 2010: A recent review of your account determined that we require some additional information from you in order to provide you with a secure service.
(Your case ID for this reason is PP-381-133-271.)
· 2. Feb. 2010: We have reason to believe that your account was accessed by a third party as different computers have logged into your PayPal account and multiple password failures where presented before the logons. We now need you to re-confirm your account information to us. We understand that having restricted access can be an inconvenience, but protecting your account is our primary concern.
(Your case ID for this reason is PP-381-133-271.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
How can I restore my account access?
Please visit the link below, log into your account and complete the secure verification form:
--link removed--
If this is not completed by February 28, 2010, we will be forced to suspend your account indefinitely, as it may have been used for fraudulent purposes. We thank you for your cooperation in this matter.

Please do not reply to this email. This mailbox is not monitored and you will not receive a response.
MFG from Germany!
What you do is contact them and sort it out.
Happened to me even though it was a false alarm.
These kind of mails are being send daily by scammers.
It is a known technique called fishing.
NEVER, and I mean NEVER click on a link to your bank/paypal/ebay/etc from an email certainly when it is a message like this.
account suspended, or even a false "you have bought item blabla", all these messages where designed to make the reader be concerned regarding their account, and thus follow the link and logging into a fake site.
Typing the address manually is always the safest bet.
Use one e-mail specific only for banking business like paypal, and for nothing else (not for forums etc..), never publish it on the web.
(what is unknown can not be spammed or scammed)

Receiving jobs by email

Hi all, I'm self employed and receive most of my work via email with the details in a pdf or doc file.
If at home I just transfer the details to calendar on my PC which syncs with my google calendar and then onto my note calendar. From the note calendar I can tap the location field and navigate to the customer with google maps and, if necessary, tap the contact number to call the customer easily while on route.
The problem is this requires manually typing the data from the document into the calendar. Easy on my PC but a pain in the butt if I'm on the road at the time.
Does anyone know of a way to automate this so I can do it easily from my note?
In summary I want to be able to get the job details into the calendar (stock at moment but not set in concrete), specifically the address into the location field and contact name and number into the description field.
Would it work if I got them to send out as a calendar invitation, I assume but don't know for sure, that they use outlook.
Sorry for the long drawn out question, I hope it makes sense. Any ideas greatly appreciated. Love using the note for my jobs but need to be able to streamline it's use when jobs come in on the road. At the moment I have to open the email, download and open the attachment, write down the details and either enter them into a diary event or type them directly into phone/navigation as appropriate. Not exactly high tech

imo the simplest solution would be if customers would send you invitations from google calendar - when accepted would automatically get into your note calendar,
Thanks p107r0,
I think it will also work if they create a diary event on their system and invit me as an atendee. In theory I then get an email invite which, if I accept it will populate my calendar.
Just messing with it myself and seems to work. I'll have to get my companies to try it out if I can convince them.
genious question, brilliant idea for an app, someone should make it

What if you did some sort of mashup where your clients go to a google hosted google apps page with a google spreadsheet that is acting as a form,
in this they can type the requirements.... and perhaps can select / type who they are (or perhaps type their UID which does a lookup to prevent data protection act) that has an action of add to calendar + email alert for you with the attached PDF that they select in the form?
I might have a look in to this myself as it seems kinda fun!
Edit: Found this example, that is kinda close
https://sites.google.com/site/drupa...usiness/apps-script-examples/calendar-service
Second edit
Perhaps http://www.jotform.com/ can help.
Thanks fooby, at moment I'm working on getting them to set up a calendar event and inviting me as an attendee as I think that will work with a few tweaks.
Trouble is getting them to play with me

Hidden app in Google Play Store: How does it work for users?

I hope that this it the right subforum for my question:
I want to release an app on the Google Play Store in a way that only the users I approve of can download it. According to Google's support website (sorry, doesn't let me post the link - just google "publish private apps", it's the first result) you can accomplish this by releasing a private app. My question now is:
How does it work for the approved users? Is there a way to set it up, so they can download the app through a link, no matter what organization they belong to?
Or is there no way around working with origanizations? If so, does this mean that someone in the company's IT appartment has to set up an account that approves of my app and every other user in the same company has to use the company's e-mail address to create a Google account and then join the organization to be able to download the app?
I know that I have to pay $25 to sign up as a developer but are there any "hidden" costs for users/organizations that use my app as well?

Third-party email client secure?

Hello, just a quick question. I'm tired of using three separate apps for my various email accounts. I downloaded Blue Mail and it's great. But my concern is security since they store info on their servers. Is there any chance my passwords/emails/privacy are at risk? Or can I stop worrying and use the app? Thanks for any help offered.
You can use Gmail app for other email providers too.

Secure if each account is protected by different passwords and 2fa enabled.
checkout https://protonmail.com
their servers are in the Switzerland and if you get a paid account you can add more emails. they are all 2fa enabled to view and if you're low on cash, use
https://appcloner.app/
its not necessarily the email account you should be concerned about, its which sites you use it for. from where the breach comes from.
There are mails like protonmail and others that provide a very secure mail. but if your'e just looking for an app shouldn't you be using actually like gmail or outlook? they're great and I guess you can turn off any personalization if you don't want to. give it a try
