Hi. I am writing a script which has a field for a device. Target selector targeting a mobile device.
When the user enters their device, the script returns the device ID. But I need to convert it into a notify target such as "notify.mobile_app_bananas_iphone", so that I can send a notification to it!
I can't find an easy way to do that conversion. Does anybody have any ideas or suggestions? Or an alternative way to send a notification to a selected device.
I read another blueprint that used notify.mobile_app_' + device_attr(id, "name") | slugify so that seems to be the solution!

That works unless you rename the device, but not the action.

True. I don't see any way around that though?

Nope, not yet. In the future there will be notify entities instead of notify actions, so then you can find it based on the device entities

Oh that's cool. Any idea when that change might happen? I seen a close architectural discussion on it. But nothing more
