Does this replace the need for SGTBattens blueprint in 0.14? I added the automation portion of your code to my automations.yaml, and created a script using the script portion, but I can't get it to do anything. |

From what I can tell, this is no longer the proper way to reference an event id for the purpose of pulling a thumbnail, snapshot, or clip in a Home Assistant notification. I might be misunderstanding the new system with reviews, but this id seems to refer to the overall review item (which can include multiple objects) and not a singular detection like in 0.13. To get a thumbnail in a notification like I would with the regular frigate/events topic, I need to set the variable to It would appear that what I'm familiar with as event id's are listed out under "detections" now as an array. This difference is likely why other users are unsuccessful in getting the template to produce a notification. I imagine (like myself), they used your template for the mqtt trigger and paired it with the provided "simple notification service" (which also uses a variable "label" instead of "objects"). These few tweaks seem to have my notifications working like before, but with customization of what causes a notification done through Frigate's alerts vs. detections instead of a bunch of conditions in Home Assistant. Really liking 0.14 so far and I hope this helps someone passing by! |

Hi Nick, I cant seem to get the preview gif to load, even just as a url outside the notification. |

As part of the new Frigate UI events are now intelligently organized into different categories and combined by times of activity. This means that a person delivering a package is one review item instead of having separate events for the person and the package. This behavior is often also desirable for notifications. In Frigate 0.14 there is a new
/reviews
MQTT topic that can be used for notifications as well.Automation YAML
Example Payload
Here is an example payload
Simple Notification Service
Reference the HomeAssistant notification docsfor how to customize these.
