Setting Up the sip_notifier Service

The add-on is running, but you need to add the service to Home Assistant manually.

Add to your configuration.yaml

Add this to /config/configuration.yaml:

rest_command:
  sip_notification:
    url: "http://088d3b92-sip-notifier:8099/send_notification"
    method: POST
    content_type: "application/json"
    payload: >
      {
        "destination": "{{ destination }}",
        {% if audio_url is defined %}"audio_url": "{{ audio_url }}",{% endif %}
        {% if message is defined %}"message": "{{ message }}",{% endif %}
        "duration": {{ duration | default(30) }}
      }

Restart Home Assistant

Settings → System → Restart

Usage

After restart, use the service:

service: rest_command.sip_notification
data:
  destination: "+15551234567"
  message: "Hello from Home Assistant!"
  duration: 20

Or with audio URL:

service: rest_command.sip_notification
data:
  destination: "+15551234567"
  audio_url: "https://example.com/alert.mp3"
  duration: 30

Alternative: Create a Script

If you prefer a more friendly name, add this to configuration.yaml:

script:
  sip_voice_notification:
    alias: "Send Voice Notification"
    description: "Place a SIP call and play audio"
    fields:
      destination:
        description: "Phone number (+15551234567)"
        example: "+15551234567"
        required: true
      audio_url:
        description: "HTTP(S) URL to audio file"
        example: "https://example.com/alert.mp3"
        required: false
      message:
        description: "Text message for TTS"
        example: "Emergency alert"
        required: false
      duration:
        description: "Call duration in seconds"
        example: 30
        default: 30
    sequence:
      - service: rest_command.sip_notification
        data:
          destination: "{{ destination }}"
          audio_url: "{{ audio_url | default('') }}"
          message: "{{ message | default('') }}"
          duration: "{{ duration | default(30) }}"

Then use:

service: script.sip_voice_notification
data:
  destination: "+15551234567"
  message: "This is a test"

Example Automation

automation:
  - alias: "Water Leak Alert"
    trigger:
      platform: state
      entity_id: binary_sensor.water_leak
      to: "on"
    action:
      - service: rest_command.sip_notification
        data:
          destination: "+15551234567"
          message: "EMERGENCY! Water leak detected!"
          duration: 40

Troubleshooting

Service not found after restart

  1. Check configuration.yaml syntax
  2. Check Home Assistant logs for errors
  3. Verify add-on is running (Settings → Add-ons)

Call fails

Check add-on logs: Settings → Add-ons → SIP Voice Notifier → Log

Look for SIP connection errors or audio conversion issues.
