The `hangouts` platform allows you to deliver notifications from Home Assistant to [Google Hangouts](http://hangouts.google.com) conversations. Conversations can be both direct as well as group chats.
|
|
|
|
## {% linkable_title Configuration %}
|
|
|
|
To enable Hangouts notifications in your installation, you first need to configure
|
|
the [Hangouts component](/components/hangouts/). Then, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
notify:
|
|
- name: NOTIFIER_NAME
|
|
platform: hangouts
|
|
default_conversations:
|
|
- id: CONVERSATION_ID1
|
|
- id: CONVERSATION_ID2
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
{% configuration %}
|
|
name:
|
|
description: "Setting the optional parameter `name` allows multiple notifiers to be created. The default value is `notify`. The notifier will bind to the service `notify.NOTIFIER_NAME`."
|
|
required: false
|
|
type: string
|
|
default_conversations:
|
|
description: "The conversations all messages will be sent to, when no other target is given."
|
|
required: true
|
|
type: [map]
|
|
keys:
|
|
id:
|
|
description: "Specifies the id of the conversation. *The conversation id can be obtained from the `hangouts.conversations` entity.*"
|
|
required: true
|
|
type: string
|
|
{% endconfiguration %}
|
|
|
|
The conversations has to be precreated, the conversation id can be obtained from the `hangouts.conversations` entity. Make sure to use quotes around the conversation id or alias to escape special characters (`!`, and `#`) in YAML.
