The instapush platform uses [Instapush](https://instapush.im) to delivery notifications from Home Assistant to your Android or iOS device.
|
|
|
|
The Instapush [Getting Started page](https://instapush.im/home/start/) will guide through the process of creating the required items.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
notify:
|
|
name: NOTIFIER_NAME
|
|
platform: instapush
|
|
# Get those by creating a new application, event, and tracker on https://instapush.im
|
|
api_key: ABCDEFGHJKLMNOPQRSTUVXYZ
|
|
app_secret: ABCDEFGHJKLMNOPQRSTUVXYZ
|
|
event: ABCDEFGHJKLMNOPQRSTUVXYZ
|
|
tracker: ABCDEFGHJKLMNOPQRSTUVXYZ
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Setting the optional parameter `name` allows multiple notifiers to be created.
|
|
The default value is `notify`. The notifier will bind to the service
|
|
`notify.NOTIFIER_NAME`.
|
|
|
|
To retrieve those values for existing settings, log into your account at https://instapush.im and go to your **Dashboard**. Then click **APPS** tab, choose an app, and check the **Basic Info** section. The *Application ID* is the ``api_key`` and ``app_secret`` is the *Application Secret*.
|
|
|
|
It's easy to test your Instapush setup outside of Home Assistant. Assuming you have an event *notification* and a tracker *home-assistant*, just fire a request and check the Instapush dashboard for a new entry.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -X POST \
|
|
-H "x-instapush-appid: YOUR_APP_KEY" \
|
|
-H "x-instapush-appsecret: YOUR_APP_SECRET" \
|
|
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
|
|
-d '{"event":"notification","trackers":{"home-assistant":"Switch 1"}}' \
|
|
https://api.instapush.im/v1/post
|
|
```
|
|
