One of the things most people want at some point in their home automation is to get notified when certain events occur. For this reason there is a `notify` component in Home Assistant.
|
||||
|
||||
Home Assistant currently supports the awesome [PushBullet](https://www.pushbullet.com/), a free service to send information between your phones, browsers and friends.
|
||||
|
||||
To add PushBullet to your installation, add the following to your `home-assistant.conf` file:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
[notify]
|
||||
platform=pushbullet
|
||||
api_key=YOUR_API_KEY
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Automation example
|
||||
|
||||
Notifications are great to be used within Home Automation. Below is a an example configuration that you can add to your `home-assistant.conf` to be notified when the sun sets.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
[automation]
|
||||
alias=Sun set notification
|
||||
|
||||
platform=state
|
||||
state_entity_id=sun.sun
|
||||
state_from=above_horizon
|
||||
state_to=below_horizon
|
||||
|
||||
execute_service=notify.notify
|
||||
service_data={"message":"YAY"}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
For more automation examples, see the [getting started with automation page]({{site_root}}/components/automation.html).
