The asterisk_mbox
Asterisk Voicemail integration for Home Assistant allows you to view, listen to, and delete voicemails from an Asterisk voicemail mailbox. The integration includes a panel on the frontend that provides caller-id and speech-to-text transcription (using Google's API) of messages in addition to playback and message deletion. There is also an included sensor that indicates of the number of available messages. There is no requirement that the Asterisk PBX and Home Assistant are running on the same machine.
To enable the component, a configuration is required in both Home Assistant as well as on the Asterisk server.
First follow the Asterisk PBX configuration guide to setup the necessary server on the Asterisk PBX server (this is needed even if Asterisk and Home Assistant are running on the same server)
Configuration
Once that is complete, add the following entry configuration.yaml
file:
# Example configuration.yaml entry
asterisk_mbox:
password: ASTERISK_PBX_PASSWORD
host: ASTERISK_PBX_SERVER_IP_ADDRESS
port: ASTERISK_PBX_SERVER_PORT
This will add a new 'Mailbox' side-panel, as well as a sensor to indicate # of messages available.
