what trigger is equal to Tasker "wifi near" Please?

Trigger Wifi Scan Results Available. Your phone already periodically scan for nearby wifi. At mine, it randoms between 1-3 minutes, depends on the screen and maybe some random timer. Available SSID is stored in access_points in list type. Use access_points[0] to access the first element and etc. If you need more variable, you can add another condition wifi available and add the SSID you want to check for. This will provide you with more info (bssid, strengh, frequency etc). Add debug dialog to see what variable you can use.

PS : at newer android version and some ROM, it require the location to be enabled to get the results.

I can't remember Tasker all that well.
But i think you want to trigger the flow when your phone "sees" another wifi network.

If so, here's what you do:
Add the trigger "Wifi Scan Results Available", requires no configuration, but it you do need it to give it Location permission (not sure why... anyone on this?).
Also, you need to connect that trigger to an action called "Wifi Scan".

The trigger gives you the variable "access_points" which i assume would list you the SSID's of the wifi surrounding you.

This is all i know.

Oh Desmanto, i didn't see you there.
We were both at it i see
