Implemented Smart actions should be added as a trigger for notifications
Hi!
Background
I have a few T110 magnetic sensors on doors. Have created a smart automation when any of the doors have been open more than 1 minute.
I have turned off notifications for all sensors, because I don't want to get spammed as soon as a door opens or closes.
Problem
I can not recieve a notification when this new smart automation occurs when I have turned off notifications for the sensors.
The problem here is that if I turn notifications on for all my sensors, I will be flooded with notifications as soon as any door opens, closes or is left opened more than 1 minute.
Notification settings are unfortunately somewhat simple and binary in their current design and are recieved on any action (open/close/automation).
Need
1) I only want a notification when the door has been left opened for too long (the automation triggers).
2) I want to be able to control in more detail when I want nofications and what should happen after the automation triggers.
Suggestions
Make it possible to recieve notifications only when an automation occurs.
- This can be set in the item's settings for notifications (see screenshot), and/or
- In the settings for the smart automation (which now is pretty scant in its possibilities),
Make it possible to customize more types of triggers and also be able to customize more events after triggering the automation, such as having an alarm chime in the hub AND send push notification (see screenshot), or only recieve a push notification without the hub sounds the alarm (for situations when I don't need the hub chimes).
Also, if I want the automation to send me a notification when it triggers even if I've turned notifications off (to save me from spam), I should have the possibility to override that, but only for the automation.
Best regards
Nils
