Exchange variables with Macrodroid

[xeiss]

This app is a perfect extension for Tasker and Macrodroid, because they are very limited in HTTP Get capabilities. (Nice work btw)

As already mentioned in #82 it is necessary to can exchanges variables to or from the automation app because there you have many possibilities to fill the requests with a whole bunch of data.

I have the version 1.23.0 and tested the feature with Tasker and the variable push to HTTP Request Shortcuts works fine. But I mainly use Macrodroid, which also can run Tasker-Plugins, but with Macrodroid I cannot push the variable to HTTP Request Shortcuts.

+1 for this feature request.

one way to get more value might be to just implent a "send intent" action. most automation apps (tasker etc) can receive intents, so then you don't worry about a tasker implementation and a macdroid implementation and a .... even a 'write to file"would be helpful....

nice little app you've got here. thank you!

As a current workaround, you can make use of the sendIntent function (see https://http-shortcuts.rmy.ch/scripting#send-intent) to send data from HTTP Shortcuts to Macrodroid, and you can pass values from Macrodroid to HTTP Shortcuts by triggering a shortcut via deep-linking, by invoking a URL of the form "http-shortcuts://deep-link/" and appending the variables you want to pass in as query parameters.

Thanks, but in the meantime, I use another app (from the product itself).
But I let this open because I think this would be useful for other users.
