The data structure of the yaml file in the examples is radically different than what is in the current version of Home Assistant. I’m trying to add a Channel but notify.moblie_app_<your_device_id_here> is incorrect as far as I can tell. What I see is:
device_id: ################################
domain: mobile_app
type: notify
message: Someone rang the back doorbell
Where/how do I enter the Channel name?
Hello Gene V,
I found this… Notifications - Home Assistant
Introduction | Home Assistant Companion Docs
Example:
actions:
- data:
title: The house is on fire and the cat is stuck in the dryer!
message: Messages
data:
ttl: 0
priority: high
channel: TEST
action: notify.mobile_app_YOUR_DEVICE_NAME_HERE
Edit:
Changed action entry to generic device name to make things clearer
Clicking on Device or Entity says no device found yet I have multiple Android devices that show up under Devices.
I do not have a Pixel, I have a Samsung. If that works for all Androids it needs a better name. Sorry for being dense but I don’t see how/where to set my moble as the destination.
action: notify.mobile_app_YOUR_DEVICE_NAME_HERE
Your device name can be found in the mobile app integration.
You can also find (& change) the name you gave your device in the companion app settings under ‘Servers & devices’ where you configured your HA server.
Thank you @chairstacker for the clarifications. Attached is what I see at the location you indicated. How do I enter that with spaces and apostrophe.
The best way to find the correct action ID is to actually look at the available Actions. This can be done in the editors for scripts and automations or by using the Action tool. Simply type “notify.mobile” in the search field and you will be provided with the available notification actions from the Mobile Apps integration.
In the “Add Action” menu of the script or automation editors that will look like:
