Send notifications to devices

Hello

what is the best way to configure automation like the alarm is gone off, right now i have to create 5 lists on each automation that i need to send notifications to my family, i tryed using helpers but they dont show my devices

thanks

Notification integrations are in the middle of an overhaul.

Most notifiers are still using the platform-based method and can only be grouped via YAML configuration.

is there a github for the middle of the overhaul so i can track it?

use a script for the sending notifications, call the script in your automations

hmm what could work how could achive this?

in


define sequence

in automation, call the script

The only thing I am aware of is the arch. discussion https://github.com/home-assistant/architecture/discussions/1041, but it has been quite for a few months. It seems like it might be stalled because they are trying to figure out an approach that will work with the notifiers that use more extensive data configurations. But, that’s just an assumption on my part.

There may be more active discussions going on elsewhere like Discord.

I have seen the idea of a Template Notify entity floated as an option in the meantime, but AFAIK there hasn’t been any firm proposal or development on that.
