Thank you for this blueprint @hunterjm, it’s save me so much time! Is it possible to add a custom action to the notifications. So for example, when it triggers for a car in the driveway, ask if I want to open the gate or switch on a light etc…
This blueprint works heck of a lot better than the automations I created by hand. Thanks again.
I am having one last issue though, for some reason I can’t create another automation or script that will turn these on or off. I am not sure what is going on, but i was able to set up a time based automation to enable/disable notifications on my hand built Frigate notifications automations previously, but for some reason I can’t make an automation or script work with automations generated by this blueprint.
Is there a way to click the notification and have it take you direct to the live stream?
My automation based off this blueprint is called “Person at Front Door”, and I have another automation that will turn it off for 1.5 minutes, then turn it back on when any one of three doors is opened. this is what mine looks like. Hopefully it helps.
i built it using the automation editor, but here is the yaml
alias: pause doorcam object alerting
description: ''
trigger:
- platform: state
entity_id: binary_sensor.front_door
to: 'on'
- platform: state
entity_id: binary_sensor.garage_door
to: 'on'
- platform: state
entity_id: binary_sensor.garage_side_door
to: 'on'
condition: []
action:
- service: automation.turn_off
target:
entity_id:
- automation.person_at_front_door
- delay:
hours: 0
minutes: 1
seconds: 30
milliseconds: 0
- service: automation.turn_on
target:
entity_id:
- automation.person_at_front_door
mode: restart
Thanks for the info. It looks like my issue was related to a previous HA bug, and with todays update, my automation to enable/disable are working just fine!
Afternoon All,
This is a wicked Blueprint been really pleased with it, would it be possible for the optional presence filter to be on many devices?
Ie only notify (group) when me and my partner and 2 kids are out.
(Optional) Presence Filter
Only notify if selected presence entity is not “home”.
Hi all, I do get the notification in my android app but i do not get any thumbnail image?
I do have the Frigate NVR + Frigate HACS installed. Seems to work fine catching persons, cats etc.
Clips and thumbnails shows up fine in Frigate NVR page.
I have the latest HA app installed on my android Galaxy S10 device.
When i click on the notification it just re direct to the ‘HA homepage’ in the app.
What to do?
I’m having the same issue - did you find a solution?
No, still the same issue…
Btw. I’m also running HA in virtual machine.
Any help is very welcome
Ok, it has something to do with the phone. When I tried my wifes phone Huawei P30 pro…it suddenly works fine!
I have tried to turn on all notification on my Galaxy S10…but still no luck, I ‘only’ get the notification that it has detected a person, no thumbnail or clip. Again, any idea/input is welcome
I fixed my issue! In the blueprint I replaced ‘ ‘ with “ in the json parts.
I fixed my issue! In the blueprint I changed double ‘ ‘ with “ in the json parts. That made mine work.
Ok, thanks! Tried it but unfortunately i still have the same issue!
I have this running.
One issue, has anyone been able to improve the load time of the camera feed? My cameras are all on the local network but the load time of the stream when this notification pops up still takes a handful of seconds which isn’t ideal when you are thinking about your front door. Is there anyway to preload the streams on another server? I am streaming from Blue Iris which I assumed was the most effective.
This is possible by creating a group
entity with the devices you want to group together: Group - Home Assistant
Does anyone else get 404 errors when opening attachments? They open with in the HA app. my HA instance is behind Nginx Proxy Manager. The notification displays an image fine.
Edit: Seems that it might be related to the fact the default option in the list is to view clip. I dont have clips enabled hence the 404. If i view snapshot it opens the image but it still shows it in the app and i have no UI other than just an image.
I skimmed through this thread and didn’t see someone post this issue.
On iOS. When I click on the notification, takes me to the snapshot but I can’t seem to exit out of the image and cannot access rest of the app. Anyone else figure out how to exit out of just seeing the screenshot?
Literally posted that above your comment
Many thanks for this awesome blueprint.
Also having the same issue as above, when clicking on and loading the screenshot I am then unable to exit it and or get back in to the HA app (ios).
I note when getting stuck like this, if I exit the app (although being ios it never actually refreshes anything) and reopen the app I get the yellow cog bottom right of app screen (connection) and the only way I can solve this is to switch from wifi to 4g or vice versa to get the connection and therefore the app back
One Question, i want to get notified between 11pm and 8am. How to configure this condition into the blueprint?
