Image not show in notification

Configuration

Hi. Im trying to send a snapshot of my doorbell in a notification, I already try sending the image like this:

service: notify.mobile_app_androidluis
data_template:
  title: Están Tocando el timbre...
  message: Esta persona esta tocando...
  data:
    color: red
    image: /media/local/facesnap/snap.jpg

With the image saved in:
/media/facesnap/snap.jpg

And also using a hosted image in my hassio in the WWW/snapshots/ folder with the URL: https://mycloudflaretunnel/local/snapshots/snap.jpg?raw=true

Already check and in the pc and phone I can see the image in that Url, but in the notification do not show either both methods.

2

the image should load, check for errors in the HA logs

you can also try the local relative URL for the image too

4

Already check the logs and there isn´t one related to that automation or notifications :confused:

What is “local relative URL” ?

5

check the companion app logs instead of HA core logs

/local/snapshots/snap.jpg

6

In the companion app I don´t see nothing wrong either

I also try the local relative URL with this path:

/media/facesnap/snap.jpg

and sending this url:

And this work some times but the least I would say that 3 of 10 times works. The Url as the image work perfect all the times the first may be 4 days and then… nothing :confused:

I also notice that it works better in iphone than android

this is not the log but notification history, please first open the app, reproduce the issue then go to Settings > Companion App > Troubleshooting > Show and share logs

this means there is probably a network issue that the logs will indicate…there is only 1 attempt made to download the image and that is when the notification is posted.

Something interesting is if I recieved a notification while the app is open it works perfect.

This are le logs when it works (with the app open when i recieved it)

Im thinking that maybe it cloud be related with something of battery saving but not shure its only one idea…

9

check to make sure the app has permission to run in the background, this will vary from device to device

10

Final results:

No always work with the battery saving ON or OFF no make any diference.

This way work fine but it dont work with the saving battery i dont know why if i selected the Home Assistant app to never suspense, I have to search more.

Thanks for the help!
