When your devices are set up, it's time to put the cherry on the pie: **automation**. Home Assistant offers [a few built-in automations](/components/#automation) – but you'll be using the automation component to set up your own rules, for the most part.
|
||
|
||
If you added a random sensor in the previous step then you can use that sensor for your very first automation:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
automation:
|
||
- alias: Check sensor value and show notification
|
||
trigger:
|
||
platform: numeric_state
|
||
entity_id: sensor.random_sensor
|
||
above: 10
|
||
action:
|
||
service: persistent_notification.create
|
||
data:
|
||
message: "Sensor value greater than 10"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
For further details about automation, please take the next step or the [automation documentation](/docs/automation/).
