Notifications Are Global To All Users

I use apprise to send notifications from another applications to HA, but no matter what I do the notifications are global to every user.

My wife and kids don’t need to see every server error, uptime notification, etc in their app waiting to be dismissed.

And when they dismiss it, it means it’s gone for me too. I really want these notifications to not be shown for anyone else but me, but I can’t seem to find a way to make it work.

I Kind of understand the meaning of your “Point”
But if it’s an external Application , you could just create a “Maintenance-View” A Dashboard only you as administrator have access to, and there creatively present those Notifications in appropriate cards
Or are you saying you use Apprise to send Notifications direct to HA’s Notification integration ?

Never heard of Aprise before. From a quick glance at the docs it seems to be a proxy to other notification platforms.

Which notification service are you using with Aprise?

Some platforms support more than one group/channel.

e.g. I use Telegram and have separate chat groups I can notify for

  • general notifications
  • system alerts
  • system log

Sounds like it is sending a persistent notification.

I know nothing about Apprise. But, can it be set to just send a phone notification?

sms, email and httpsms … alot and even send to homeassistant, and bunch of other platforms

So it depends which notification service they are using with Aprise to know if it has the option to send notifications to separate groups of people.

I use Apprise to send messages from other applications directly to Home Assistant. Pulse, Audio Bookshelf, etc. It seems as though the “persistent” notification is default, and there’s really no way around it.

I ended up putting a persistent_notification.dismiss after each mobile action node so I still get the toast popup on the phone, but everyone else doesn’t get the long list of other notifcations in their client area.

I’m matching on {“notification_id”:“{{payload.event.service_data.notification_id}}”}

he most likely use the ha-aprise integration, but but which service he use on his “various” Servers, i have no clue, thought it might be Aprise<>HA , instead of using basic-Unix/linux tools

Yes that is what I said.

Seems as though he was too busy sounding superior to read what you said.

was busy answering Tom, as i thought you were using Aprice externaly, and didn’t know whether you also used the ha.integration, or other “means” in HA, and beside didn’t noticed you had send a “partly” description
