AdGuard Automation Interface

Post by ottaky » 07 Oct 2018 18:58

Adguard recently (seems like 2 - 3 weeks ago) added an "Automation Interface" to their app ..

(scroll down a bit to see the Automation interface announcement in the change log)

The interface is described here ..

I've activated the interface in adguard and attempted to adjust one of my flows to use it to enable adguard when e.g., Chrome is started on my phone. However, I've had no joy in getting Automagic to start Adguard.

Has anybody had any success using the new Adguard interface?

You need to add extra password and use send broadcast. There is example flow here : viewtopic.php?f=5&t=7585&start=10
Explanation is at the page 1.

Ah! Send broadcast. I had been editing my existing action which was a 'start service'. Should have spotted the obvious mistake.

Many thanks for that - it's working as expected now.
