hello, I am looking for a way to send a notification from HA to my pixel watch 3 without install the app on the watch, is there a way?
if not, is it possible to send a notification to the app on pixel watch in dnd mode?
thanks!

send a notification to the HA app onn your phone and it will relay to the watch
ancient wadi
yes, but it doesn't happen in DND mode, how can I do it?
hazy snow
set the notification channel settings to override DND
you should consider creating a new channel so you can separate when a notification should override or not
ancient wadi
data: sticky: "true" action: notify.mobile_app_pixel_6a
I have this in my automation
hazy snow
that does not create a new channel, see the link above
ancient wadi
yes, reading it, but all these settings with notification to my phone, will reflect to the watch notification too?
hazy snow
yea should hopefully respect that
ancient wadi
ok, I will try, thanks
ancient wadi
but how can I create these channels? I mean how can I see them on the phone to select which one can bypass the dnd?

you follow the steps to create them, these are features of your phone that the app uses

I tested it, then it is not working as expected, when the watch is in bedmode I can receive the notification, but silenced and without vibration
even if I set priority high
hazy snow
priority wont matter there but importance is used the first time you create the channel, did you override the channel setting for DND?
ancient wadi
what do you mean?
I think the problem is with bedmode and not DND, they seem to work differently, but bedmode should be able to alert on "alarms", but I don't understand what is an alarm for the watch
btw, I am using importance
channel: "Alarm" importance: high
but I added importance later, not the first time I created the channel, does it matter?
hazy snow
but I added importance later, not the first time I created the channel, does it ...
as long as you overrode the channel settings later it should be ok, otherwise that value can only be used the first time a channel is created. youll need to create a new one assuming you did not override the "alarm" channel in your channel settings
ancient wadi
yes, did it, but same behaviour
