    I've setup a broadcast which sends the tap (single / double / long) and built-in variable %antilestate.

    I've added variable names for action and state in the profile but whilst the action variable is received in the task the tile state isn't.

    I just get the token %antilestate in the receiver rather than its value.

    Any help much appreciated.

    Code (Text):
    Tiles: setup (208)
        A1: AutoNotification Tiles [ Configuration:Tile: AutoNotification
    Command: ToggleNfc=:=single-tap=:=%antilestate
    Double Tap Command: ToggleNfc=:=double-tap=:=%antilestate
    Long Tap Command: ToggleNfc=:=long-tap
    Label: NFC

    State: Toggle Active/Inactive Timeout (Seconds):60 ]

    Hi there . Where were you expecting to get the %antilestate variable from exactly? Can you clarify?

    I was expecting to receive the value of %antilestate in the enter task I've specified from the profile that receives the AN tile tap event.

    It receives the tap type, the first variable specified in the profile but the second variable, state, should be set to%antilestate but doesn't, it gets the literal value of "%antilestate".

    This is the command being logged in AutoApps log:

    Code (Text):
    New Last Command: ToggleNfc=:=single-tap=:=%antilestate;

    But that variable is only generated in the Tiles action, so it won't be available in the action itself, only after the action :) If you want to get the current state use the Tiles action with the Unchanged state. That'll give you the variable you can then use later in the task. Hope this helps!

    Sorry, I'm being thick but I'm not following.
    That's the tile set-up, the receiver profile catching the tile command didn't get the tile state variable value, only the literal.

    Yes, that will never get the tile state. Only the action can get it.
     
: tile, variable
