Notify using TTS
The notify TTS platform lets you use the TTS integration speak or legacy say service and a media_player to alert you of important events. This integration provides a simple interface to use in your automations and alerts.
In order to use this integration, you must already have a TTS platform installed and configured, and a media_player working with the TTS platform.
To enable this platform in your installation, consider the following example using google_translate and an example media_player.living_room
.
In your configuration.yaml
file type:
notify:
- platform: tts
name: in_the_living_room
entity_id: tts.google_en_com
media_player: media_player.living_room
Please note that the tts_service
parameter, must match the service_name
defined in the TTS integration.
