Help Sending ID with Water Leak Detected

Configuration
1

I finally got my water sensors working. I’m trying to create a single automation to handle everything.

How can I edit my yaml to send the location of the water sensor with the push alert as the mesage? i.e., is there a way to assign an id to the device and use that id as the message for the send notification?

Here is my automation config. I’m new to this, so definitely a learning curve. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Simple mistake; you forgot to include quotes for the template.

Change it to this:

      message: '{{ trigger.id }}'

If you’re interested, you can also do this:

alias: Water Sensor - Water Leak Detected
description: ''
trigger:
  - platform: state
    entity_id:
      - binary_sensor.water_sensor_erics_office_bathroom_ias_zone
      - binary_sensor.water_sensor_laundry_room_ias_zone
      - binary_sensor.water_sensor_lucas_bathroom_toilet_ias_zone
      - binary_sensor.water_sensor_powder_room_ias_zone
      - binary_sensor.water_sensor_water_heaters_ias_zone
condition: []
action:
  - service: notify.notify
    data:
      message: '{{ trigger.to_state.attributes.friendly_name }}'
      title: Water Leak Detected

        push:
          sound:

Thanks, that got it working. @123 I may change to the one you suggested. I have 10 more sensors coming (want to put one under every toilet/sink since the builder used the push on valves that are known to pop off sometimes).

Now I gotta figure out why I get a notification from both HomeKit and Home Assistant.
