There is no exactly the same feature. We can use logcat/dumpsys using Trigger Command Output, but require root in AM 1.37.
The permission DUMP and READ LOGS has been added in AM 1.38 EAP : http://automagic4android.com/forum/view ... f=7&t=7986
But haven't released yet. Granting those permission will allow use to use the command without root, hence available to all users.

We still have parse the logcat manually. I will try to study the method done by tasker and try to mimic that using regex parsing. Of course it is much better to have this feature built-in, but I am fine if I need to create it myself. It allows much more flexibility.

As I know there is newer version on 29 December 2019 : viewtopic.php?f=7&t=7986&start=80#p26851
This should work maybe for at least 45 days (???).
