Pushover Notifications

Source: https://pushover.net/
Icon Support: No
Attachment Support: Yes
Message Format: Text
Message Limit: 512 Characters per message

There isn't too much configuration for Pushover notifications. The message is basically just passed to your online Pushover account and then gets relayed to your device(s) you've setup from there.

Getting Your User Key

Once you log into the website, your dashboard will present your {user_key} in front of you.

Getting Your API Token

On the dashboard after logging in, if you scroll down you'll have the ability to generate an application. Upon doing so, you will be provided an API Token to associate with this application you generated. This will become your {token}.

Syntax

Valid syntax is as follows:

pover://{user_key}@{token}
pover://{user_key}@{token}/{device_id}
pover://{user_key}@{token}/{device_id1}/{device_id2}/{device_idN}
pover://{user_key}@{token}?priority={priority}
pover://{user_key}@{token}?priority=emergency&expire={expire}&retry={retry}

Parameter Breakdown

Variable	Required	Description
user_key	Yes	The user key identifier associated with your Pushover account. This is NOT your email address. The key can be acquired from your Pushover dashboard.
token	Yes	The token associated with your Pushover account.
device_id	No	The device identifier to send your notification to. By default if one isn't specified then all of devices associated with your account are notified.
priority	No	Can be low, moderate, normal, high, or emergency; the default is normal if a priority isn't specified. To send an emergency-priority notification, the `retry` and `expire` parameters should be supplied. You may also set the priorities as documented on the Pushover API where `-2` is low, `-1` is moderate, `0` is normal, `1` is high and `2` is emergency
expire	No	The expire parameter specifies how many seconds your notification will continue to be retried for (every `retry` seconds). If the notification has not been acknowledged in `expire` seconds, it will be marked as expired and will stop being sent to the user. Note that the notification is still shown to the user after it is expired, but it will not prompt the user for acknowledgement. This parameter has a maximum value of at most 10800 seconds (3 hours). The default is 3600 seconds (1 hr) if nothing is otherwise specified.
retry	No	The retry parameter specifies how often (in seconds) the Pushover servers will send the same notification to the user. In a situation where your user might be in a noisy environment or sleeping, retrying the notification (with sound and vibration) will help get his or her attention. This parameter must have a value of at least 30 seconds between retries. The default is 900 seconds (15 minutes) if nothing is otherwise specified.
sound	No	Can optionally identify one of the optional sound effects identified here. The default sound is pushover.
url	No	Can optionally provide a Supplementary URL to go with your message
url_title	No	Can optionally provide a Supplementary URL Title to go with your message

Custom Sounds

Pushover integration constrains notification sounds to a predefined list. This change adds support for custom sound in notifications, which must be uploaded and given a name. This change updates the pushover integration to allow for that name to be specified instead of throwing an error.

Go to Settings -> Alert Settings -> Manage custom sounds -> Upload a sound
Upload a sound and specify a name (e.g. "mysound").
Validate the sound is accessible and present in the sounds list for your app via https://api.pushover.net/1/sounds.json?token={app-token}
Specify a sound in your pover call, i.e. apprise -vv -t "title" -b "test message" pover://user@app?sound=mysound

You should hear your custom sound on the notification. In cases where the custom sound name is not found, the default pushover notification sound will play.

Example

Send a Pushover notification to all of our configured devices:

# Assuming our {user_key} is 435jdj3k78435jdj3k78435jdj3k78
# Assuming our {token} is abcdefghijklmnop-abcdefg
apprise -vv -t "Test Message Title" -b "Test Message Body" \
   pover://435jdj3k78435jdj3k78435jdj3k78@abcdefghijklmnop-abcdefg

Send a Pushover notification with the Emergency Priority:

# Emergency priority advises you to also specify the expire and
# retry values.
# Assuming our {user_key} is 435jdj3k78435jdj3k78435jdj3k78
# Assuming our {token} is abcdefghijklmnop-abcdefg
# The following will set a 1hr expiry and attempt to resend
# the message every 10 minutes:
apprise -vv -t "Test Message Title" -b "Test Message Body" \
   pover://435jdj3k78435jdj3k78435jdj3k78@abcdefghijklmnop-abcdefg?priority=emergency&retry=600&expire=3600
