Pushover KNX integration: notifications with Link’nX

Link’nX sends Pushover notifications from the installation’s scenarios. A KNX event or another trigger starts the scenario, whose action sends a text to one or more declared Pushover accounts. This page sums up the steps, from declaring the account to diagnosing a missing notification.

What the Pushover integration does

Need	Where to configure it	Guide
Save a recipient account with its user key and API key	Other → Pushover	Declare a Pushover account
Write the message and choose the recipient accounts	Pushover action	Prepare a Pushover notification
Send the notification on a KNX event	Scenario with a KNX trigger	Create a KNX trigger
Find out why no notification arrives	Action, scenario and provider account	Diagnose missing notifications

Step-by-step commissioning

1. On pushover.net, note the account’s user key and create the application that provides the API key. If the Pushover entry is missing, check the context and options with Link’nX navigation.
2. Declare the account in Other → Pushover, then review it with Edit.
3. Create the Pushover action: Name, one or more accounts in Pushover account and Notification text.
4. Add the action to a scenario, with a KNX trigger if sending starts from the bus, then save the scenario.
5. Trigger a test and check that the notification is received in the recipient’s Pushover app.

If nothing arrives, the “Troubleshooting” section of the Pushover action guide gives the order of the checks.

Good to know

• User key and API key are both required and are not interchangeable. The Link’nX form does not create a provider account.
• An action can target several accounts, or all of them with Select all. Always fill in the text: the form accepts an empty text, which is not a usable notification.
• The action offers no emergency priority, repetition until acknowledgment, sound, attachment or choice of a particular phone within an account.
• The Pushover declaration has no KNX gateway table: the link with the bus goes through the scenario’s trigger.
• Saving the account or the action sends nothing and does not prove that Pushover accepts the keys.
