STEP 1 - CREATE AUTOSHARE COMMAND

• Open AutoShare
• Select Manage Commands
• Add a command
• Call it Tiny URL
• Give it an appropriate icon

STEP 2 - USE AUTOSHARE EVENT

• Open Tasker
• Create a profile with the AutoShare event condition
• Select the command you just created in AutoShare
• Accept and go to the task

STEP 3 - CREATE TINY URL AND SET CLIPBOARD

• Add the HTTP Request action
• Set the URL to http://tinyurl.com/api-create.php
• Set the Query Parameters to url:%astext

%astext contains the text that was shared into AutoShare, which is a URL when you share a web page from a browser into AutoShare

• Add a Set Clipboard action and set the clipboard to %http_data
• Add a Flash action showing the URL you just created

Done! Now when you share a URL into the AutoShare command you created you'll instantly get a short version of it on your clipboard!


If you want you can also convert a URL in an input field on any app to a Tiny URL. Here's how.

STEP 4 - CREATE TEXT PROCESSOR

• Open AutoShare
• Click on Manage Text Processors
• Create a new one called Tiny URL and give it the same icon as before

STEP 5 - CREATE PROFILE FOR TEXT PROCESSOR

• Open Tasker and name the existing task on the previously created profile to something like Convert to Tiny URL by long clicking on the task
• Create a new Profile with the AutoShare Process Text event condition
• Select the Tiny URL text processor

STEP 6 - MODIFY TASK TO PROCESS TEXT

• In the existing Task add an AutoShare Process Text action and set the Processed Text to the %http_data variable
• Exit Tasker with the back button to save

Now when you're editing some text in any app, select a URL > AutoShare > Tiny URL and the URL will be replaced with a tiny one
