I have the following inside my Action, but it fails.
I now want Tasker to check if an OpenHab Sensor (gPresenceSensors) is ON using a HTTP get, and only accept the Auto Call if we are home - cause well, no point if we aren’t, it will ring my mobile and ill pickup manually when I’m not home! I’ve got the swipe working and auto accepting calls nicely. If you run into any trouble I’ll help if you may know this… Good luck! Please post a tutorial if you get this working. I’ve used AutoRemote a while I was playing with Google AIY Voice. In this approach openHAB would kick off an sendHttpGetRequest or HTTP binding to call AutoRemote to send a command to your phone in response to the Item changing to ON. Or maybe not as you may not care if this command works if you are not connected to your LAN.įinally, you may be able to set something up using Join or more likely AutoRemote. There appears to be an app that will kick off Tasker tasks in response to messages received over MQTT but this means you either have to be using a cloud based MQTT Broker like CloudMQTT ( has a great tutorial for setting that up with the MQTT 1.x binding) or have an SSH tunnel set up (I’ve a tutorial for this posted here somewhere) or VPN connection to home. If you are using we can set up Tasker to poll the REST API for a given Item but that is never going to be fast enough to do something like answering a call. So we need a way for Tasker to get the events. The problem is Tasker may or may not be on your LAN at any given time and therefore may or may not have access yo OH and OH have access to it. This is not so easy or straight forward as you would imagine.
So let’s look at how Tasker can receive an event from openHAB.
What do you need the Item for? Is it just an assumption that the communication must go Alexa->openHAB->Tasker? So it looks like you don’t need openHAB involved in this at all. Can we? Let’s see what we have.Ĭan Tasker do something in response to a routine from Alexa? It looks like the answer may be yes Echo Smart Home Tasker Plugin but it is in beta and requires the AutoVoice plugin.Ĭan Tasker answer an incoming call? Yes, there is a Take Call action. That’s going to be really cool if we can make it work. I’m trying to get Tasker to auto accept a sip call, when Alexa receives the voice saying ‘Alexa, Answer’
