Google seems to have opened up for IoT Apps on Android Auto recently: Android Developers Blog: Bring your IOT apps to cars
Previously when running Smartthings one handy thing I havent been able to do in HA yet is have an actionable notification popup on my cars screen in Android Auto whenever I got in close proximity to my house to open the garage door.
Maybe it’s possible now to do a deeper integration with Android Auto?

Here to ask for the same “actionable notification” function. So far, I’ve only been able to have 1 line of the notification I setup displayed on Android Auto screen (on the phone, I could pull down the notification to access the “actions” options, but not on the car screen). Just curious if it is already possible?
why ask when the answer is above your post? yes its possible today when you follow the example and include the action.
You can also see a working example in the original request

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
It is not related to any problem but a suggestion on how to enhance some of the automations we have using home assistant.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
When connecting my android to my car, I normamly get some popups on screen from different apps like maps and whatsapp. I would like to get popups from my android home assistant automation if possible so I can automate some popups to easy access like:
Do you wish to open your garage door ? (when getting close to your home )
Would you like to turn off your office ? (when leaving the house)
etc.....
At the moment I am already sending those notifications to my android but they are not showing up on my android auto screen. That would make it much more secure if I could interact with the android auto device instead of my mobile.
**Describe alternatives you've considered, if any**
At the moment, I have to get my mobile and click on the automations I have set to send notifications/popups but that represents a security risk as I am driving while looking at my phone
**Additional context**
Thanks a lot for the amazing work you are putting into this 👏
