[Feature Request]: Pushover support
Describe what you are trying to accomplish and why in non technical terms I want to be able to send notifications via Pushover API instead of the native Home Assistant app. https://pushover.net/
Describe the solution you'd like A new option in the BluePrint to configure sending a notifcation via Pushover.
Additional context Currently, my Home Assistant is not accessible over the internet for security reasons. Becuase of this, when my phone is outside of the local network, images will not display in the notification.
I would like to utilise Pushover's API so that I can still receive images when outside of the local network
I'd like to second this request. I use pushover for notifications with various applications/services that are not reachable over internet. Pushover handles notifications in a single interface. It also handles various alerting levels like critical notifications that require acknowledgment to silence.
@SgtBatten: Came back to state that this is no longer an issue with "Frigate Notifications (0.12.0.4a)".
I was able to set up Pushover notification using "Custom Action (Auto Trigger in Loop)". For some reason initial custom action "Custom Action (Auto Trigger)" would not work as "Entered Zones" was always empty, not even when I added a 10 second delay (bug?). "Custom Action (Auto Trigger in Loop)" works fine with a 30 second cool down to prevent multiple notifications.
Other thing to note is that I did not want standard notifications via Home Assistant App, so I created an empty notification group to use with automation:
notify:
- name: doNotNotify
platform: group
services:
Thanks for adding custom actions 👍
Can you support this officially? Being able to in dropdown actually define the notify.
whats needed?
need to be able to send notifications to notify.pushover or whatever the individual calls it.

I understand the request. I dont have much time to look into whats needed to make it work. Hopefully someone can make a pull request or provide the necessary config details.
