Email notification for specific error

Configuration

Hi is it possible for home assistant to send an email if a specific error is logged?

Yes you should be able to do this with the event trigger.

e.g.

trigger:
  - platform: event
    event_type: system_log_event
    event_data:
      level: ERROR
condition:
  - condition: template
    value_template: "{{ 'word(s) you want to match' in trigger.event.data.message[0] }}"
action:
  - service: <your email notification here>

By listening for the event in Developer Tools → Events you may even be able to make the trigger more specific.

Thank you. I’ll give it a try.
