Luup request VeraAlerts in Openluup

I am using reactor in openluup which I installed on my Pi4. Now I also use VeraAlerts on my VeraPlus. VeraAlerts does not work on openluup. To activate VeraAlerts, I have to use scene on my VeraPlus again what I don’t want. Is it possible to activate VeraAlerts via Luup Requests in openluup (reactor) on my Pi4?

I can switch on my lamp with a luup request

http: // ip_adress: 3480 / data_request? id = action & output_format = xml & DeviceNum = 1118 & serviceId = urn: upnp-org: serviceId: SwitchPower1 & action = SetTarget & newTargetValue = 1

In VeraPlus I activate VeraAlerts with the Luup code below.

luup.call_action (“urn: richardgreen: serviceId: VeraAlert1”, “SendAlert”, {Message = “backdoor open”, Recipients = “office”}, 1133). I may also be able to activate it in openluup with a luup request.

Who can help me?

something like this should work.
http://ip_adress:3480/data_request?id=action&DeviceNum=1133&urn:richardgreen:serviceId:VeraAlert1&action=SendAlert&Message=backdoor%20open&Recipient=office

Concur.
On openLuup, a reactor activity includes a “Run Lua” activity like . . .

luup.call_action("urn:richardgreen:serviceId:VeraAlert1","SendAlert",{Message="Debbie Left Work{tone:3}",Recipients="VAProfile"},10029)

I would also point out that Reactor now natively has many of the notification options VeraAlerts has. It’s a simpler model than that of VeraAlerts, but that’s not always a bad thing.

See: Notify Action in Reactor docs. This does not describe the recently-added support for Pushover and Telegram.

Yep! :grinning:
And I’m migrating my alerts to Reactor’s native Pushover notification. Much Thanks!
But I did want to point out the VA option. (It was easy to use in Reactor)

Thanks,It works.
the plugin doesn’t work in openluup but apparently you can activate it!
