Automation for Pushing Shopping List Notifications Upon Store Arrival

Configuration
1

I’m setting up a Home Assistant automation to push my shopping list notifications to my mobile device when I arrive at specific stores, to streamline access without needing to open the app manually. However, I’m encountering an issue where my call to the shopping list returns ‘None’.

in terms of your question,

that’s not quite correct for how you access todo items. you need to call get_item that will then put the items into a response_variable.

try something like this in your action section:

action:
  - service: todo.get_items
    metadata: {}
    data:
      status: needs_action
    target:
      entity_id: todo.shopping_list
    response_variable: get_item_results
  - service: notify.persistent_notification
    data:
      title: Shopping List
      message: |
        {%- for item in get_item_results['todo.shopping_list']['items'] %}
          {{ item.summary }}
        {%- endfor %}
