Pushover
The Pushover service is a platform for the notify component. This allows integrations to send messages to the user using Pushover.
Configuration
In order to get an API key you need to register an application on the Pushover website. Your Pushover user key can be found on the Pushover dashboard.
To use Pushover notifications, add the following to your configuration.yaml
file:
# Example configuration.yaml entry
notify:
- name: NOTIFIER_NAME
platform: pushover
api_key: YOUR_API_KEY
user_key: YOUR_USER_KEY
Example Automation:
- service: notify.entity_id
data:
message: "This is the message"
title: "Title of message"
data:
url: "https://www.home-assistant.io/"
sound: pianobar
priority: 0
attachment: "http://example.com/image.png"
Component specific values in the nested data
section are optional.
Image attachments can be added using the attachment
parameter, which can either be a valid URL for an image (ex: http://example.com/image.png
) or a local file reference (ex: /tmp/image.png
).
To use a specific Pushover device, set it using target
. If one of the entered devices doesn’t exist or is disabled in your Pushover account it will send a message to all you devices. To send to all devices, just skip the target attribute.
- service: notify.entity_id
data:
message: "This is the message"
title: "Title of message"
target:
- pixel3
- pixel4a
data:
sound: pianobar
priority: 0
