Haha, fair enough!
Thanks for your help.

I feel though that it's possible that watchmaker and Automagic are simply not compatible unless watchmaker adds a tasker plugin to trigger automagic or becomes automagic compatible.

That's ok I'll just have to make do with automagic's wear integration and have a play with autowear tasker plugin. Automagic can see a lot from that app.

Someone on the watchmaker form replied and shared this page... http://tasker.dinglisch.net/invoketasks.html

They said that watchmaker sends intents. Now, I know automagic can receive intents. Perhaps this can be done through some means of having automagic triggered by an intent sent from watchmaker?

I was able to send a variable to watchmaker from automagic by editing the script in the override settings configuration.

I removed the tasker variable and put the Automagic variable and worked first time!

If anyone needed this sytax works

putString("net.dinglisch.android.tasker.extras.VARIABLE_REPLACE_KEYS", "tasker_var");
putString("tasker_var", "{am_variable}");
putString("tasker_var_name", "%wm-name");

That puts AM variable into the variable {twm-name} in watchmaker

Does anybody have a flow for this?
It can't be that difficult, but I cannot get it to work... :?

Missed the flow attached earlier in this thread...
Does the plugin only work with a paid for tasker?
