Challenges with iOS Notification target - entityId

Mobile Apps
1

I have a very simple notification (temp sensor, if too warm, fire alarm) that when I click the notification - it goes to said sensor. per Introduction | Home Assistant Companion Docs I have the automation calling notify with data “url: entityId:sensor.freezer_temp_sensor”. When the notification gets fired to iOS, I receive an alert to open a URL… but clicking “open” does nothing.

All screenshots.

Clearly I’m missing something terribly obvious here and I’m not sure what.

(Note: I’ve fixed entityID to entityId, that didn’t work, I tried with and without quotes. Using an http URL to something random, or linking to a lovelace works. So it’s just the entityId part I’m not getting right for some reason).

The docs have an android head next to those kind of URLs. Try making an URL like this: URL Handler | Home Assistant Companion Docs

So basically navigate to where you want in browser and switch “http://1.2.3.4:8123/” with “homeassistant://navigate/” in the url.
