You need to set the Action Parameter under the Action tab of the Beacon Action dialog to the task you wish to trigger in Tasker. For example. I have a timed event trigger in Tasker called Mind. So it appears in the tasker TASKS tab the task title appears as "Notify Mind"

So in Beacon Action set the Action Type to Tasker.

Then I set the Action Parameter to "Notify Mind" so when Beacon Locator tries to fire the task it sends that to Tasker and Tasker runs the task.

You must also have "Allow External Access" enabled in Tasker. You'll find that in the preferences under the MISC tab.

My phone is on Android 12. I have enabled "external access" in tasker. In Tasker "TASKS" tab, there is a task named "TestTask", which includes one single "Beep". In BeaconLocator "ACTION" tab, "Action parameter" is "TestTask". Tapping "Execute" nothing has happened. Please help.
