[Config Support]: Android not being sent the notification.

[Handrail9]

Describe the problem you are having or the outcome you are trying to achieve.

Hello, I am trying to set up notifications, but I can't seem to get the blueprint working. I did not customize the blueprint past giving it the camera and device to send the notification to. I'm not sure what I need to provide so please be very in depth with where to get more information if you need more information. I appreciate the help in advance

Any other information that may be helpful

Frigate, MQTT and Home Assistant are all run in Docker. I tried referencing this guide when I could not get it to work reading the official Frigate documentation but it did not fix the issue.

Any traces? screenshot the trace tree if there is. If not, mqtt probably isnt configured in a way that home assistant is getting the messages from frigate

wait also you dont have the record roll defined for your camera in frigate

Thanks for catching that, I've added - record under - detect and restarted Frigate & HA.

I had tried manually running the automation in HA to test the notification and didn't receive anything. This trace is what shows up when I hit run, when I make a new one and walk in front of the camera myself it's blank after.

Here's the trace:

What can I post to verify if MQTT is configured correctly? I'm a little dull and am not sure which parts will be important to debugging.

you cant manually trigger it by pressing run, nothing will happen. You need to walk in front of the camera as you mentioned.

To check on mqtt you need to install something like mqtt explorer in home asisstant and then look for the frigate/events channel. if frigate events arent showing up in the mqtt explorer then HA isnt recieving the messages.

Okay, I've got MQTT explorer installed on my main PC and I went ahead and reset the MQTT password just to make sure that wasn't the issue. I'm out of the house for the next couple days but other people will be there so I'll check back in when I have an update. (Either when I can test it when I get back or if theres a ping sent to my phone while im gone)

nvm

My wife just returned from work, and I got a notification from the new automation. No clue why it didn't work when I walked in front of my cameras the first 15 times...
