Nicest Video. Real stuff. Result was successful. Good Stuff ! Following your steps, I got the notification working finally. After Running around here and there for a week and rigrous effortsm without this video....i wasn't able to get it.
Just altered one of my existing notifications implementing this. Have a zone notification when I'm arriving home to tell my partner to clear the history on her browser 😉. Have altered it now so I get the notification and if I'm on my bike I can open one gate on the carport without getting the rf fob out of my pants, or jacket, or backpack, or shopping bag or ... Should be very useful. Using a Broadlink RMPro. Great device. BTW yours seemed to be the most accessible of the tutorials as far as understanding for a competent but confused HA user. Thanks for all your efforts.
That is awesome! I just saw a video on the broad link today. Looks very interesting. I keep trying to find a nice open source remote, but the closest I got was the Yio remote, but looks like version 2 software will have an open API but not be open at it’s core. Shame.
@@AwesomeOpenSource There was one thing that I had to change. I had to turn off the "continue on timeout" because if I didn't it just ran the next action whether I pushed the button or not after the time out. Unless I did this wrong?
one question ~ HomeAssistant(VM on ESXI) and NodeRed(pi Zero W) are running separately for me. And i would like to send these actions over mqtt messages to the Noderead(pi Zero) for turning on and off some relays etc... How to do that. Could you please guide. one suggestion ~ If you could make a video for your subscribers to get notifications for HomeAssistant(Running Frigate NVR) notifications on their ios and Android devices. That will be super cool. Reason there's none of the videos that talk about stuff like you do...cut to the chase. You're Awesome !
I'm not sure how to get a push notification into NodeRed, that one is beyond me a bit. I have videos on frigate and Notifications. The notification process is the same, but you're using a frigate trigger. Here's a video where I setup the notification near the end of the video when triggered by Frigate. ruclips.net/video/43E5bxuaVj4/видео.html
Hi, really helpful video, thanks for the great effoert. I hope you don't mind but may I ask, if I want two buttons to perform two call to service events one each depending on which button you press, how would I add a second button and event to this so both showed on the notification please. Cheers Dave
Something you're doing got me thinking about how useful it would be, and that's the shelly button being 300 miles away (for my own grandfather). I'm not looking for a full depth breakdown, but is there a simple way to explain how you're doing this? I'm sure your dad has wifi at his house and the button is connected to shelly cloud? how are you bringing that into HA if its not on your local network that HA is running on? Great Video as always and thanks for making me brainstorm different uses and applications!!
None of my shelly stuff uses shelly cloud. It's all local. Yees it is on wifi as that's how their stuff works. I use MQTT via the button to send a message that Home assistant is listening for (essentially any click), and when it receives that message I have it notify all devices. In fact my mother-in-law was out of town visiting her other children 350 miles away and my dad pressed it one night, and she called right away to make sure we all got the notification too. If you're interested in seetting it up, let me know and I'll be happy to get on a call and go through it with you. Definitely the best automation I have.
Awesome video, really helpful. I cant for the life of me get it to work... i've tried different to-from states (even trying blank), i have no time parameters, i'm using the same CALL SERVICE action.. when i select "RUN ACTION" nothing happens... even when i select NOTIFY.NOTIFY service... no notification to my iphone... any ideas?
@@AwesomeOpenSource you were exactly correct… I didn’t realize within the iOS app there were device specific naming and push notification settings allowed - thank you!
Hi! I've got the impression to be the only ANDROID (12) user, here 🙂 I don't see how my screen can display a button, like an iPhone. Instead, I duly receive the msg from HA and, of course, if I tap on the msg, it opens the HA Compagnon. So sad. Any help? Thanks!
There is definitely a difference in how the Android buttons show in notifications. I want to say it was under some work back when I did this video, but should have been available by now. Let me point you to the @EverythingSmartHome channel. Lewis does incredible content, and covered this very topic (with android as well). Maybe it will help fill the gaps.
Do you mean two response options? If so, then just add a second block for the next response option, and then add the appropriate action to take after that option is selected.
@@AwesomeOpenSource I got it to work - but it's not that simple. i mean, adding another button is simple. how do you add the 2nd option for action tough? you should use IF for each button.
@@zivgin86 seems like I recall each button could be tied to its own action, or several actions, but essentially each action could call an automation or scene. I want to say after that video, they made it even easier with the flow in HA.

Glad I could help.
What's a Ligth? As in "Shop Ligth". 🤣 Great vid. Will set up our carport gate so I can open when my partner gets home from a bike ride.
Hahaha. You know that’s my code so only I know what the heck I’m thinking.
@@AwesomeOpenSource at least you know what you're doing! 😉
That's great! I always forget to turn off some of my lights so I see some possibilities here 😄
Yep the notifications really take HA to another level.
Harıl harıl kaynak arıyordum bu işi nasıl yapabilirim diye, çok teşekkürler güzel insan. Benden size kocaman best regards! :)
Rica ederim, yardımcı olduğuma sevindim.
Thank you. Very helpful.
You're welcome!
You make the best Videos -- seriously you real do , any chance on making Frigate notifications with pics or go to video ? well done
Let me see what I can do, It's been a while since I looked at it, but I want to do a frigate update this summer.
Thanks, worked for me
My Pleasure

Oh, you mean software buttons on the notification itself? or do you mean two physical buttons (like Aqara or Shelly) that do two things?
@@AwesomeOpenSource hi software actionable buttons. Have now managed to get two working but can't get a third which I thought android allowed 3

If it continues on timeout won’t it always turn off the ac after 60 seconds?
The timeout (as I understand it) is so it's not waiting for a response from you, and blocking other tasks.
@@AwesomeOpenSource Incorrect, it will turn the AC off after 60 seconds of no action the way you set it up. "Continue on Timeout" toggle is on
Awesome video, really helpful.

i've even looked at the HA troubleshooting guide and can confirm i am getting notivations to the web GUI (Persistent notification)
Make sure your user is assigned to a device, and make sure the devices are identified by different names. Is it iOS or Android?
@@AwesomeOpenSource you were exactly correct… I didn’t realize within the iOS app there were device specific naming and push notification settings allowed - thank you!

@@AwesomeOpenSource Thank you very much for your response. I also "follow" Lewis, but did not find a solution in his tutorials. Merry Christmas!
How do i do it with 2 options?

My IOS device does not show up to track.
Have you installed the homeassistant app on it and logged in to it?
