Can anyone help me with Notifications? Not the normal questions though, I want to be notified when HA gives me a certain notifocation in HA, the little red 1 that pops up (feddit.uk)

So long story short, Google Nest thermostat just disconnects from HA every once in a while. It used to be when I did a reboot I'd get a notification in HA telling me an integration needs setting up again, always Nest and Google Calendar.

But now it seems to disconnect and not tell me. I realise when it's fucking freezing and my heating hasn't kicked on (I control it with HA rather than Nest because I get better results.)

So what I've done is have Node Red reload the integration every 4 hours, because when I manually do this it'll come up that the integration needs reconfiguring.

So now all I need is to be notified when the integration needs reconfiguring. A Google just brings me up threads on how to send a notification. I can do this already, I just want a notification when I get a notification...

See, the problem is that it's called "Notifications" in HA.

I've played around some with the events node feeding into a debug node and trying to find "Notifications", but no luck so far.

Yeah I've had a look around myself and not found anything. Honestly just refreshing the integration required a little digging.
