Add Notification Controllers

[balli]

I must be missing something obvious here.  I'm trying to setup a pushover notification controller.  I know by pushover User Key, but the admin console wants Name, Node Address And Primary Node Address.  I have no clue what any of this means.

I also tried using the Polyglot Notifications Add pushover, but it wants Node Name (I assume this is something I make up), User Key which I know(though typing in that random 30 character code will be a chore), and Application Key (I have no idea where to find this).

You'll need to say where you are on the journey to set up pushover on the notification plugin

• You have the paid for version of the notification plugin? That's required
• There's setup steps for the notification plugin on the pg3 page for the plugin, have you done that?
• Here's what mine looks Iike when I setup a pushover node under custom typed config

Yes, I have the paid notification plugin.  I'm on exactly the same page you posted.  I just don't know what to fill in for Application Key.

 

I see this note

You must have a user key for the Pushover Service and you will need at least one application key which are listed at the bottom of that page under "Your Applications".

I'm just not sure what "that page" means.  If it's the pushover app settings page, I see no "your applicatons" there

Those values come from pushover to integrate with it. The user key points pushover to your account. The application key is what pushover uses for each group, which you define. Here's how I use mine. Operation Log, Battery Alerts, House notices and House Alerts on the left are what pushover calls Applications. Each organizes the notifications you place into them and each has a unique key when you create it on pushover.

 

 

To use each in a program, it looks like this. This one is a House alert. (I know it doesn't show up in my graphic above, but there would be one if there was a house alert message. The center, where it says 'Set' is the node you create for each pushover 'application'

It's not super straightforward but once you go through and complete one you'll see.

Here's where I define my pushover "applications"
