Android Intents - Sending & Receiving List (Starting Activities too!)

[Hellis81]

@dshokouhi

To get you started here is an example of how to listen for events in an automation and notify you when its been received. The below will send a notification with the person who fired the event and the intent that was sent with the event data.

Copy to clipboard

- alias: Intent received
  trigger:
  - platform: event
    event_type: android.intent_received
  action:
  - service: notify.mobile_app_dannys_pixel_4_xl
    data_template:
      message: "Intent received by user {% set person = states.person|selectattr('attributes.user_id', 'eq', trigger.event.context.user_id)|first %}{{ person.attributes.friendly_name }} with action {{ trigger.event.data.intent }}"
      data:
        ttl: 0
        priority: high

I can’t get this to work.
Long story short, this thread made me think about the intent listener.
So I added android.bluetooth.device.action.BATTERY_LEVEL_CHANGED to listen for and added the automation as above.

I see this very briefly in states:

And the app has this setting:

And automation is this:

alias: New Automation
description: ''
trigger:
  - platform: event
    event_type: android.intent_received
    context:
      user_id:
        - 1ebf075a6b72488494cbf1bc09bfadc6
        - afc9fe441ceb4b468205fd29fdaa42ac
condition: []
action:
  - service: notify.mobile_app_andreas
    data:
      message: >-
        Intent received by user {% set person =
        states.person|selectattr('attributes.user_id', 'eq',
        trigger.event.context.user_id)|first %}{{
        person.attributes.friendly_name }} with action {{
        trigger.event.data.intent }}
      data:
        ttl: 0
        priority: high
mode: single

And it never fires…

I have force closed the app and restarted it.
I have also tried without the context of trigger, which I assume means trigger on all events?
Node red does not either notice any events.
