I have configured a notification-group in my configuration.yaml
notify:
- platform: iq_notify # the platform to use
name: familie # alias name for notify.{name}
time: 2 # time offset in which we assume someone "just left/arrived" or "is staying"
pairs: # a list of presence entities are corresponding notify services
- entity: device_tracker.pixel_4a_mob
service: mobile_app_pixel_4a
- entity: device_tracker.iphone_von_marc
service: mobile_app_iphone_von_marc
- entity: device_tracker.patriks_handy
service: mobile_app_patriks_handy
- entity: device_tracker.pixel_6_pro_mob
service: mobile_app_pixel_6_pro
and I use it in several automations
since a while I get error messages, that the notify service ist unknown
Sometimes it is mobile_app_iphone_von_marc, on the other day it is mobile_app_patriks_handy.
All seervices are online without an error
Does anybody have an idea how to solve the problem?
That’s a device_tracker, that has nothing to do with the notification service. Search through your notification services and find the one that pairs with your phone. It most likely has a different service name. Developer tools → services.
The error is coming from your missing notify service… Please just look for the service in your services tab. You’re just making this harder on yourself by not looking for it.
I don’t think that’s the case. I think this is simply one of those rare instances where the device is set up correctly, but the notification service doesn’t detect it when it tries to send the message.
