How can I make MacroDroid make me check in and out at work, by triggering a link on a website at a specific location?
Link trigger by location
- Thread starter theniceshark
- Start date
Trigger - location (when entered zone set as work)
Another one when leaving the zone
Actions:
If trigger fired (location - entered the work) Http request
If trigger fired (location - left the work) Http request
If I understood correctly obviously.
You would probably use GET method

Okay hsurB, but I'm new to MacroDroid, so can you help me in the direction of using "GET" method 
Well I am not sure how exactly you check in and out from work but using http request with get method and putting a link under url when configuring this action would basically open a link in a background.
So I assumed you have like 2 different links for checking in/out and all you have to do is open them.
If thats not the case you would have to use open website action and perform ui interactions (simulate clicks on screen) to proceed

How would a program look like, which simulates one click on a screen on a specific location?
Ok. So you have to use ui interaction - click.
And then there are few options from there - either by text (you select what word should be clicked) but it might not be recognized in some cases or x,y coordinates (you would have to enable developers settings in your phone first, then pointer location - you would have to check on the internet how to do it, its easy but it might be slightly different for each device).
If what you need to click is already visible after opening browser it shouldn't be that hard.
