Text Alert when Fingbox detects unknown device
How this automation works
Automatically trigger a web request when Fing detects that one of your selected users has arrived on the network. This Applet runs whenever a Fingbox user is detected nearby and sends a web request through Webhooks to update another platform or service. Perfect for syncing home automation systems, such as Home Assistant, ioBroker, or eedomus, when users return home. Note: This requires a reachable webhook endpoint (URL).
