Is it possible to monitor the state of an integration via events? I have an integration that needs to be periodically reconfigured (credentials re-entered). When this happens, there is a notification in Home Assistant, but I’m looking to make this more visible, and wanted to see if I could trigger something through a NodeRed flow when this happens. I’m not seeing an obvious event that I could monitor to trigger this and was wondering if anyone has suggestions.
Does this help?

Thanks! That looks like it will give me an event when a persistent notification is created, which I should be able to key off of. Much appreciated.

In case it helps anyone else, I adjusted this slightly and wrapped it up into a sub-flow. This gives me a node I can use as an input to other flows that outputs a message with a couple custom properties I can key off of (notification_title and notification_message).
In another flow, I then have this as an input into a switch, which checks the notification_title property and based on what it matches, I can choose actions to take (in my case, firing off a push notification).
