Hi!

How does one catch the URL in a tasker task when sharing it from another app?

­—

I am looking to create a task that can be triggered from any app that supports sharing HTTP URLs.

On my devices I am blocking advertisements and tracker domains, however, more and more e-mail links are being put being a tracking service. On my devices these are blocked because I don't want that stuff on my devices.

So I created a link follower service, which I've got working together with a browser extension. Now I want to make it even more neat by supporting the android "share with" functionality.

I figured, most probably tasker can do this.

I can share URLs with tasker, but it does nothing. Figuring out how to start with this by browsing the tasker UI and documentation, I find somewhat clunky
