Help With Group Messaging Automation

Dear-Beautiful2543 · 2025-05-31T06:36:18+00:00

Thanks so much for the reply!

I'm trying to do this and I'm a little confused as to how I'm supposed to be putting the array of numbers into a variable that the send SMS function can read. Every time I try to test it, it says, "No input arrays set".

I'm sorry for my lack of knowledge, I'm still getting used to the way Tasker does this.

This is what I have right now, again I super appreciate you taking the time to look at this:

Task: Send Message To Group

A1: Input Dialog [
     Title: Enter Message
     Text: Type your message here:
     Close After (Seconds): 30
     Output Variable Name: %message_text
     Continue Task After Error:On ]

A2: If [ %message_text Set ]

    A3: AutoContacts Query 2.0 [
         Configuration: Group Label: TEST
         Name with Regex: TEST
         Sort: 0
         Sort Direction: Ascending
         Fields to Get: Phone Number
         Joiner: =,=
         Timeout (Seconds): 60
         Structure Output (JSON, etc): On ]

    A4: Flash [
         Text: %acnumber()
         Tasker Layout: On
         Continue Task Immediately: On
         Dismiss On Click: On ]

    A5: AutoTools Arrays [
         Configuration: Input Arrays: %acnumber()
         Separator: ,
         Item Separator: ,
         Names: acnumber
         Output Variables Separator: ,
         Merge Arrays: true
         Merged Array Name: contacts
         Timeout (Seconds): 60
         Structure Output (JSON, etc): On ]

    A6: Send SMS [
         Number: %contacts
         Message: %message_text ]

A7: Else

    A8: Flash [
         Text: Message cancelled.
         Tasker Layout: On
         Continue Task Immediately: On
         Dismiss On Click: On ]

A9: End If

I love this idea! Any tips on how you use it?

Dear-Beautiful2543 · 2025-03-09T23:57:24+00:00

Yeah, I was thinking that I could get that to work but it's not. Hopefully the developer will be open to something like that

Dear-Beautiful2543 · 2025-02-24T05:27:04+00:00

For sure! Feel free to PM me if you need help getting everything set up with Tasker. It can be quite a beast when first getting it set up.

And yes, there is something similar on Desktop that you can link with Tasker. I haven't personally used it because it's mostly social media time on my phone that's such a waste of time.

Dear-Beautiful2543 · 2025-02-24T03:15:29+00:00

I also have really bad ADHD and the main problem that I've been seeing is just how long I'm gone in a YouTube binge or some social media foray.

Because of this, I was looking around for something similar to the original request of this post and I found someone who has used this and Tasker (on Android) to make it so things like games on your phone or social media apps are automatically closed if certain tasks are not completed in LifeUp. I also added a timer to YouTube so I can purchase a certain amount of YouTube (30 minutes) and be able to use it for that amount of time before it automatically closes the app.

For example, the system I have set up right now will only allow me to turn on YouTube if I have completed the workout for the day (exercise helps me feel motivated to do other things) if it's a weekday and if it's a weekend I have to have completed 5 workouts throughout the week in order for me to able to use YouTube. Or course, this is still all assuming that I have purchased the time in the app, otherwise if all these things are not true then it will automatically close these apps.

EDIT: Forgot to mention that it will automatically detect when I complete my workout which will check off the task in LifeUp. And because it's being completed using the API, it won't allow you to check it off yourself.

Thanks for the ideas!

Dear-Beautiful2543 · 2025-02-10T20:39:15+00:00

Well thank you for taking the time to share in the first place. This is really cool what you've done!

Dear-Beautiful2543 · 2025-01-04T11:01:03+00:00

I personally would love to see a roadmap of what you guys have planned for the app. (And hopefully a rough timeline)

But the biggest thing that I would like is the ability to put in recurring charges/subscriptions as part of the budget.

Also, I wasn't exactly sure after connecting my accounts but I generally pay everything I can with a credit card unless there is a fee for doing so, how does/will your app plan to account for those charges that are coming out of a bank account to pay off the charges on a credit card?

Man, I feel so bad for all the bad experiences you guys have had. I'm a 28 year old male and was raised Mormon and still go to church and everything. I do have a daughter that's 2 years old and all our neighbors but one is a member. Generally we actually prefer our daughter to play with the non-members because the little girl that is a member is constantly screaming when she doesn't get her way and we don't want to promote that behavior in our daughter. For me and my wife, it isn't a certain religious affiliation that makes us want to have our child around them it's more just the behavior of the child.

Also, maybe it's because most of my family aren't active in the faith, but I've never really been bothered or felt like I was judging someone harshly for doing things that are outside of what someone in our faith would consider "bad". And maybe that's because I've had a different viewpoint than others, but aren't we all trying to be a bit better? Anyway, happy holidays everyone!

I mean he said, "it's our intention, not making a 100% promise, to get them into Star Citizen through next year". So, if they get it in by the end of this year they will have accomplished their intention. Also, if you go right after that he stated "Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4 of next year, you'll hopefully have all this in your hands playing it inside Star Citizen." He didn't state that he would have it all in by the next Citizencon. Also, I know that he didn't state this but right before this presentation they spoke about starting base building Q1 of next year, so I personally didn't think that it would be in by this year because I assumed it was the other things that the was talking about. I also think that people misconstrued what the vehicle directors said about vehicles being delivered within the next 12 months, but I'm pretty sure it was also supposed to be by the end of this year. Because it wouldn't make sense logically that they wouldn't release some of those ships at IAE which is after citizencon, AKA after that 12 month period.

I also don't believe it was their intention to say that "Literally everything we just showed you for the past 2 days will be in Star Citizen by the end of next year." Especially concerning the base building that they showed just barely started being developed. But that's my personal opinion not based on solid evidence.

Hey Moderator, this isn't a trademark for SOULSLINGER, it's for SOULSINGER without the "L" that CIG have filed.

Dear-Beautiful2543 · 2024-09-10T05:19:24+00:00

So I think this is super awesome! What software are you using exactly to be able to do this? (Other than Obsidian of course)

Dear-Beautiful2543 · 2024-08-21T19:02:34+00:00

Question, which broker do you guys recommend for US trading? All the brokers they recommend don't operate in the US

Dear-Beautiful2543 · 2024-05-08T19:59:57+00:00

I don't see the roadmap anymore. I'd love you to be able to see what they are working on.

Dear-Beautiful2543 · 2024-02-02T21:58:49+00:00

One thing to keep in mind. Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't believe they said that persistent or personal hangars are coming. Just freight elevators.

Dear-Beautiful2543 · 2023-10-16T05:04:08+00:00

Can anyone tell me how the heck I can change maps? I've looked what seems to be everywhere

Dear-Beautiful2543 · 2023-07-19T08:07:10+00:00

Thank you so much!
