The `notify` component makes it possible to send notifications to a wide variety of platforms. Please check the sidebar for a full list of platforms that are supported.
|
|
|
|
## {% linkable_title Configuration %}
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
notify:
|
|
- platform: pushbullet
|
|
name: NOTIFY_NAME
|
|
api_key: YOUR_API_KEY
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The **name** parameter is optional but needed if you want to use multiple platforms. The platform will be exposed as service `notify.<name>`. The name will default to `notify` if not supplied.
|
|
|
|
### {% linkable_title Service %}
|
|
|
|
Once loaded, the `notify` platform will expose a service that can be called to send notifications.
|
|
|
|
| Service data attribute | Optional | Description |
|
|
| ---------------------- | -------- | ----------- |
|
|
| `message` | no | Body of the notification.
|
|
| `title` | yes | Title of the notification. Default is `Home Assistant`.
|
|
| `target` | yes | Some platforms will allow specifying a recipient that will receive the notification. See your platform page if it is supported.
|
|
| `data` | yes | On platforms who have extended functionality. See your platform page if it is supported.
|
|
|
|
The notification component supports specifying [templates](/topics/templating/) with `data_template`. This will allow you to use the current state of Home Assistant in your notifications.
|
|
|
|
In an [action](/getting-started/automation-action/) of your [automation setup](/getting-started/automation/) it could look like this with a customized subject.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
action:
|
|
service: notify.notify
|
|
data:
|
|
message: "Your message goes here"
|
|
title: "Custom subject"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### {% linkable_title Test if it works %}
|
|
|
|
A simple way to test if you have set up your notify platform correctly, is to use <img src='/images/screenshots/developer-tool-services-icon.png' alt='service developer tool icon' class="no-shadow" height="38" /> **Services** from the **Developer Tools**. Choose your service from the dropdown menu **Service**, enter something like the sample below into the **Service Data** field, and hit **CALL SERVICE**.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"message": "The sun is {% raw %}{% if is_state('sun.sun', 'above_horizon') %}up{% else %}down{% endif %}{% endraw %}!"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The automation equivalent would be:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
action:
|
|
service: notify.notify
|
|
data:
|
|
message: "The sun is {% raw %}{% if is_state('sun.sun', 'above_horizon') %}up{% else %}down{% endif %}{% endraw %}!"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For services which have support for sending images.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ "message": "Test plugin",
|
|
"data": {
|
|
"photo": {
|
|
"url": "http://www.gbsun.de/gbpics/berge/berge106.jpg"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The automation equivalent would be:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
action:
|
|
service: notify.notify
|
|
data:
|
|
message: "Test plugin"
|
|
data:
|
|
photo:
|
|
url: "http://www.gbsun.de/gbpics/berge/berge106.jpg"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the service support sending the location, the data from this sample can be used.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ "message": "Test plugin",
|
|
"data": {
|
|
"location": {
|
|
"latitude": 7.3284,
|
|
"longitude": 46.38234
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The automation equivalent would be:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
action:
|
|
service: notify.notify
|
|
data:
|
|
message: "Test plugin"
|
|
data:
|
|
location:
|
|
latitude: 7.3284
|
|
longitude: 46.38234
|
|
```
