notification by device?

[mstewart14]

I'm quite new to Home Assistant and may be missing something fundamental here but when I set the blueprint up in ha there are no devices to send the notification to... so nothing happens when the notifications are triggered.
I have discord integrated and that provides a service but no devices or entities. Native notification stuff in a new install also provides no device for this blueprint to use.
Any suggestions or help is appreciated.

I haven't used the discord integration, but notify targets are currently not really entities (this is intended to change in the near future, but not yet). The Notification Device(s) selector is intended for the HA Companion App (i.e. your phone). It should be possible to create a Notification Group including your Discord service, though.

Thank you... this is exactly the hinting I needed to move this forward. Much appreciated. I did not have the companion app setup and didn't know anything about notification groups.

For those who might be wanting to setup a notification group, you'll have to hack some yaml in the configuration.yaml file.
I'm using the discord integration and looks something like

# notify groups
notify:
  - name: group_notify_discord
    platform: group
    services:
      - service: my_discord_service_name
