That’s a good point that I did not face in my use case.
I’ll have to do some digging into the docs to see if we can use some data payloads when triggering the script.
It’s a great suggestion and valid use case, I’ll add that to the list of things to think about! 
Maybe just to help me understand better, could you go into a little more detail for your use case? The ideal flow you’re expecting the script to be capable of, and the context would be helpful!
Sure thing!
I have this triggered from my garage door opening. I have it set to persistent, with the actions being Close Door and Dismiss.
I don’t want the notification to timeout, and there’s no action I want to perform after a timeout.
So I left timeout action blank and timeout time set to the default, 0.
The problem is the actions didn’t work, as it would see that as timing out immediately and the “triggered by” would run with the timeout action (none)
So my other action buttons didn’t work, as the timeout action already “ran” and the script was no longer listening for the other actions.
Update: Version 1.2
When enabled, will not trigger Timeout Actions.I’m glad to say the changes this time are all backwards compatible.
Replace blueprint file at config/blueprints/script/samuelthng/notifications.yaml with intended version.
Reload your scripts on the Developer Tools Yaml page, or use this button:
Check your scripts!
It should show the new options and trigger properly if the upgrade went well.
)This is an amazing blueprint, thanks a lot for sharing!
How is Timeout supposed to work on iOS? I’m setting tag, timeout action and timeout duration but the action is never triggered
Looks like clear_on_timeout is not properly initialized so turning it off and back on fixed the issue.
Changing line 131 from
default: "leave_notification"
to
default: true
Fixes the variable and creating a new notification executes the timeout action correctly
EDIT 2: I see you already had a PR for this issue, nice!
Good eye! Yeah I missed that in the initial commit, should be fixed after V1.1
@samuelthng I have a few other ideas I’d like to see about implementing. Namely a clickAction so that if you tap on the notification it opens a URL/navigates to a specific spot in the app.
It’s a simple call under data, in the same spot as the icon and color. Unfortunately, it’s named clickAction for Android, and just url for iPhone… so there’s probably not a good way to implement this universally and easily.
clickAction: "lovelace/home" #Android
url: "lovelace/home" #iPhone
Another idea I had is in regards to timeouts.
I had a weird case today where the timeout occurred when my phone was without reception. It did not receive the clear_notification notification from the automation timing out, so the notification remained even though the script had already timed out.
It might be a bit cleaner to include the following in the notification itself if timeout is enabled. That way the app on the phone removes the notification instead of relying on home assistant to send a clear_notification to the device. This is also under data: in the notification setup and would only be set if clear_on_timeout and timeout_duration are both set.
timeout: 600 # How many seconds the notification should be received by the device
I’ve had a few different blueprints for notifications and this has quickly become my favorite by far!
Great suggestions yet again! Yeah we could probably work those in.
We might still need the current timeout just for the sake of triggering timeout action HA side, but using the same timeout variable.
I’ll give it some brain cell time 
Exactly. I didn’t come up with a clean solution myself… I’m more of an ideas guy!
Eventually it could get so complicated you might as well just copy and paste all the code anyway! 
Update: Version 1.3
Breaking ChangeAgain, thanks to joe.cole1 for the insights in this minor release.
Also, thanks to RemyyB for identifying the incorrect variable and raising a PR.
Sorry to everyone for taking a week to fix this. 🙇🏻‍♂️
(
Color picker is easy enough to configure, so it shouldn’t be absolutely breaking to warrant a major)
Clear Notification is correctly set/unsetIcon Color and Enable Icon Color are correctly set/unsetThis script would notify the user that a new update is available, with an option to call the update service, or the skip update service.
Upon clicking the notification - not the action buttons - it will navigate the user to the Home Assistant updates page.
If nothing has been selected for 30 minutes, the notification will be cleared automatically without taking any actions.

Bugfix: Version 1.3.1
This is an Android only fix, iOS users may ignore this patch.
Enable Icon Color - No longer overrides icon colour if disabled.Icon Color hex template - Remove unrequired code, minor change.Apologies for the frequent update - similar bug to last time, incorrect flag for Enable Icon Color.
Enable Icon Color disabled, should not override icon colour on Android phones.
iOS Action Icons: Version 1.3.2
Fine to ignore if you don’t need icons for iOS, and won’t be creating new scripts anytime soon.
Action Icons -  iOS Only - Thanks @ChrisMancini
Version: 1.3.2
Clear on Timeout since Version 1.3For your issues with iOS clear on timeout… I don’t have apple devices so I can’t test, but with my modifications to use notify. groups instead of individual devices, I needed to add back in your old style of clearing notifications so that when one device chose an action or dismissed it would do so on all devices. So my modified blueprint has both the “built into the notification” dismiss function as well as your older timer based clear notification.
Works great! That might be a good solution to cover all bases.
Yup thank you for the suggestion, that’s also exactly what I did! Just wanted to test ithe changes extensively before the next release.
There’s also be some additional features coming up!
iOS Action Icons: Version 1.4
Fine to ignore if you don’t use iOS, new additions are optional.
Subtitle, Notification Grouping, Lockscreen Visibility options, details in blueprint label.🏷️ Tag is no longer required for some features to work.Version: 1.4.tag field if you have added one previouslyThere is at least one case where a user is unable to receive notifications on their iOS device
The issue is not reproducible on my end, but is probably due to an optional feature.
If this is happening to you, you may try to use an older version of the blueprint.
Known working version: Version 1.0
good job to both.
What should I change to use another service, i.e. pushover, if already integrated in HA?
This is an example I use for Internet disconnection:
Sorry for the italian language but it’s pretty clear.
Thanks
I’m assuming you’re trying to call another action besides sending the notification alert?
If so, you have a couple of options:
You may simply add another action just like in this example below:
This applies to all action fields.
You may store all the actions you want into a separate script, then call the single script you’ve created to trigger all actions. The best part about this is it allows you to house more complex logic into that script and to compartmentalise functionality on your setup.
Hi.
In “Device to notify” it doesn’t tell me any devices. Which one should I put?
My notification service is called notify.mobile_app_nanu
Thanks
Hello @KameDomotics, thanks for taking time to try the script out.
The script only supports devices that has the official Home Assistant Companion app installed.
The domain expected would be mobile_app.<something>.
Could you check that you have your Mobile App integration in your Devices page?
Hi, yes I use the Companion App and I have the integration. I use it for push notifications and everything works. But with this script it doesn’t work, the notification service is not detected…
