Open Tasker not starting task from Join Push

I'm using Google Home and a simple browser get to the URL for Join.
https://joinjoaomgcd.appspot.com/_ah/api/messaging/v1/sendPush?text=garageopen&deviceId=aabbcc112233
The Join app and web interface logs show that the value in text= (of the URL) are making it to my device. Tasker is not starting the task action items. The action items do what I expect if I select them and hit play manually.

In Tasker I'm using an event with a text filter of 'garageopen' and then a statement

Code (Text):

If %jointext ~ garageopen
  Autocast displays www page
  Wait 30 seconds
  Autocast displays no page
End If

If it matters, I did pay for Tasker and Join post installation (I saw one thread where this could have led to their issues). I soft closed all of the applications and started from scratched.
SRC: Watched this a few times, this is where I am getting most of my configuration help - though I'm very curious as to what the =:= purpose is (ie turn=:=on). I have tried garageopen=:=open to parallel what the video showed but I have not had any success.
.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

So If statements aren't necessary? Every single example I saw had one.
I saw that tutorial but it's using AutoApps, I'm trying to use Join for a trigger (ideally a text string match).

Code (Text):

Profile: Garage Open (6)
Event: Join Received Push [ Configuration:Text Filter: garageopen ]
Enter: Garage Open (2)
A1: If [ %jointext ~ garageopen ]
A2: AutoCast [ Configuration:
Starting Casting Screen
Persistent Notification: true
Cast Device: Bedroom
Screen: Any Web Page
Screen Notification Time Out: 3
URL: http://user:password@foobar.com Timeout (Seconds):90 ]
A3: Wait [ MS:0 Seconds:30 Minutes:0 Hours:0 Days:0 ]
A4: AutoCast App [ Configuration:
Starting AutoCast
Cast Device: First Available Timeout (Seconds):0 ]
A5: End If
 

 

I'm not sure why but my post from this morning is awaiting moderator approval?

 

No success . This is a current export.

Profile: Garage Open (6)
Event: Join Received Push [ Configuration:Text Filter: garageopen=:= ]
Enter: Garage Open (2)
A1: AutoCast [ Configuration:
Starting Casting Screen
Persistent Notification: true
Cast Device: Bedroom
Screen: Any Web Page
Screen Notification Time Out: 3
URL: http://www.foobar.com/ Timeout (Seconds):90 ]
A2: Wait [ MS:0 Seconds:20 Minutes:0 Hours:0 Days:0 ]
A3: AutoCast [ Configuration:
Starting Casting Screen
Persistent Notification: true
Cast Device: Bedroom
Screen: Home Screen Replacement Timeout (Seconds):3000 ]

 

Looks like my post was once again set to pending moderator approval...

 

I will avoid links.
I added a flash and the Google Voice/IFTTT command continued to do nothing. Long press and manual play the task I get the flash pop up on my phone, then the task does what I expect.
On the tutorial you referenced, step 2, I can't specify any devices on the Join Send Push. On the Join website joinjoaomgcd and all that, my device (Android phone) is listed there.

 

Yes, just one device - my Android phone droid turbo 2 xt1585

 

Where is "here" that you want me to go to?
I've tested the "garageopen=:=" in the Join Android app's function. I click This Device and then type the message, there is a log of Pushes. This does not perform the action.

 

Bump?

 

Bump...

 

Are you done helping then?
