Notifications sent to mobile, displayed on HA dashboard

I’m looking to display all notifications which are sent to my mobile on the dashboard, I don’t need them to be actionable or anything like that just displayed in a card.

It would be good if they had the time and date sent, and possibly be able to dismiss them individually.

I use persistent notifications for this very purpose. The bonus is that I don’t have to clutter up my dashboard with another card and the notifications stay around as long as I need them to.

Yes, this would be perfect. How did you get this to work with the notifications sent to your mobile.

In my automations and scripts, I just add a call to persistent_notification.create and have it mirror what was sent to my mobile. I keep meaning to make that bit into a script, but I haven’t gotten around to it yet.

Ahh brill thanks @code-in-progress. Just got to update all my notifications now :slight_smile:

Anytime, happy to help.

Be smart! Create a script (I say as I STILL need to do that lol)… :smiley:

I am also using the persistant notification, but is there a way to display it on a dashboard (for example missed calls) instead of in the “notificaihons” menu on the left side of HA ?

Many thanks !

Coming back to this, and asking again, in case someone can answer … is there a way to “copy” a persistant notification to any card on a dashboard ?
For the moment I am getting the notifications in the persistant notification menu on the left … would like to have them as well on a dashboard …

Many thanks !!

I created a new way of doing this

First I use this integration to create a variable
enkama/hass-variables: Home Assistant variables component

Defined the variable as sensor.messages with the attribute history_1

then I created an automation to copy the notification into the attribute

alias: Benachrichtigungen
description: ""
triggers:
  - event_type: call_service
    event_data:
      domain: persistent_notification
      service: create
    trigger: event
conditions: []
actions:
  - action: variable.update_sensor
    target:
      entity_id: sensor.messages
    data:
      replace_attributes: false
      value: Nachricht
      attributes:
        history_1: >-
          {{ states.sensor.messages.attributes.history_1  }} 

          {{ now().strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') }} - {{
          trigger.event.data.service_data.title }}: {{
          trigger.event.data.service_data.message }}

then I have a markdown card which shows the attribute

type: markdown
content: "{{ states.sensor.messages.attributes.history_1 }}"

and a script to clean it again

sequence:
  - action: variable.update_sensor
    target:
      entity_id: sensor.messages
    data:
      replace_attributes: false
      value: " "
      attributes:
        history_1: " "
  - action: script.notify_clean_messages
    metadata: {}
    data: {}
alias: Benachrichtigungen leern
description: ""

I finally did it a bit differently.
I am writing the message I want in a text helper :

  - action: input_text.set_value
    metadata: {}
    data:
      value: |
        {{ now().strftime('%d/%m/%Y %H:%M:%S') }} : {{ Réponse.text }}
    target:
      entity_id: input_text.generative_ai_doorbel

Then displaying this helper in a markdown card on the dashboard :

          - type: markdown
            content: |-
              <center>        
              {{ states('input_text.generative_ai_doorbel') }}
            card_mod:
              style: |
                ha-card {
                  background: transparent;
                  border-radius: 10px;
                }

It does the job :wink:
