HI
I was wondering if someone could point me to the right direction, Currently i have working Z-Wave JS
and connected 2 devices MultiSensor 6 and Water Sensor 7 Pro and working great
but cant seem to find how to configure alerts, i already configured telegram bot but not sure what guide i should use to configure those two to get alerts to my telegram bot
I see many guide but each guide seems to be different so not sure which to look at
Thanks for the reply,
im trying the example but im getting this error
Invalid config for [alert]: required key not provided @ data['alert']['garage_door']['repeat']. Got None. (See /config/configuration.yaml, line 37).
# Example configuration.yaml entry
alert:
garage_door:
name: Garage is open
done_message: Garage is open
entity_id: binary_sensor.multisensor_6_home_security_motion_detection
state: "on"
skip_first: true
notifiers:
- telegram
# Example configuration.yaml entry
alert:
garage_door:
name: Garage is open
done_message: Garage is open
entity_id: binary_sensor.multisensor_6_home_security_motion_detection
state: "on"
repeat: 30
skip_first: true
notifiers:
- telegram
tested going to the the sensor checked on the webGUI and showed state on but no telegram alert not sure what else i missed?
You have skip first as True, which means the notification will get sent on the second repeat.
So, 30 seconds after the sensor triggers the notification should get sent, if that doesn’t happen then look at your telegram configuration and the home assistant log for errors.
# Example configuration.yaml entry
alert:
garage_door:
name: Garage is open
done_message: Garage is open
entity_id: binary_sensor.multisensor_6_home_security_motion_detection
state: "on"
repeat: 30
notifiers:
- telegram
but still cant seem to get the alert
I was checking the logs and found this
