When I first started learning Tasker, half of my problems were not knowing what type of information was supposed to go (or could go) in which fields. 'Action', 'Cat', 'Mime Type', 'Data', 'Extra', 'Package', 'Class', and 'Target' are options in the Send Intent action 'Action', 'Cat', 'Scheme', and 'Mime Type' are options in Intent Received context Correct?
