Blink notification isn't working

Ok, you’ve got a bunch of questions so I’ll try to answer them all where I can.

First, per the documentation you have to call the blink.trigger_camera service with the name of the camera. So, in your example, you would call the service with

{
    "name":"blink_cam_1"
}

For scripts and automations, there are many ways you can go about implementing them and I highly recommend reading the documentation (here are quick links for the automation and script documents).

What I do, which is by no means the only way to do it, is create individual yaml scripts which I then combine into a single scripts.yaml file via a bash script ran at startup. There are more elegant ways to do that, but whatever :smile: EDIT- I store my config on github if you want to poke around too

Finally, here is a link to the referenced automation (someone else asked a similar question that I answered elsewhere on this board)

And just in case I remove the script from my github page in the future, here is the referenced script in full:

blink_trigger_camera:
  alias: Script - Blink Trigger Camera 
  sequence:
    - service: blink.trigger_camera
      data:
          name: "Camera1"
    - delay: 00:00:05
    - service: blink.trigger_camera
      data:
          name: "CameraKS"
    - delay: 00:00:05
    - service: blink.blink_update
