Anybody else order a ton of crap through amazon and/or other such services? Thinking something similar to https://home-assistant.io/components/sensor.usps/ that could be used with your My Choice UPS account to notify you of approximate package arrival times etc.

This is currently already possible with the imap email content sensor with a little templating.
That said, something built in would be simpler, provided it is easy to set up. I think the new USPS sensor works by scraping the web interface, so it wouldnât likely be easy to adapt to the UPS site.
UPS does offer its own API.
Shippo offers a single API for multiple shippers. It might be another option for this. Havenât dug into the docs too deeply yet.
I found a few other projects on github, but most havenât been updated in awhile.
Unlikely to happen currently as UPS doesnât have an API for My Choice.

Will this be integrated into the next release? Or does this need to be manually imported? New to HA
Next release.
Hey, Just tried using the UPS Sensor, but getting the following error, any ideas?

If it matters, running Home Assistant on Raspberry Pi using HASSbian
Upgraded Hassbian, now get the following Error:-

Sorry, no, I ended up removing it from HASS.
Were you able to get this working?
nope and even todays update to 0.46 doesnt seem to do the trick either. Not sure whats wrong but i get this error still

I tried upgrading to 0.46, but no go, HASS wonât load after upgrade, reverted back to 0.45.1.
