Hello ! I would like to know from scratch how can I make push notification on my phone with the picture taken from motion

Is it possible ? I would really like to know how Thx !

Many thanks for your request.

For a push notification, if you don't mean one send by browser while the motionEye web UI is opened, one would need a phone app and use a 3rd party service, e.g. Firebase Cloud Messaging. So I think this is out of our scope. But sending a push notification through the browser should work, while I'm not sure whether this is sufficient benefit.

Best replacement currently is the sendmail feature.

@Saku241 I wonder if you can use webhook feature in motioneye to achieve "push notification" on your phone. I'm trying to do the same thing with a combination of endpoint in Node-RED and these Alexa nodes . Unfortunately the webhook feature seems to be broken as I reported in issue https://github.com/motioneye-project/motioneye/issues/2573

Webhook should work with development version: https://github.com/motioneye-project/motioneye/tree/dev#installation

I already achieve to get push notification with webhook and ifttt app but I was wondering to have a picture attached to the notification with the motion just like mail notification

Right, with the webhook feature no image can be transferred, unless you can do some custom scripting at the webhook server and images are uploaded to a server where the webhook has access to.
