Validation of rule test_pushover has failed! Required input "message" of the condition "2" not connected

[plysdyret (Torkil Svensgaard)]

openhab:latest with podman

I am unable to send messages through any pushover item when I create a rule in the GUI. I’ve been using pushover for years with rules and items defined in files and just recently tried to do it through the graphical interface. The error is this:

Validation of rule test_pushover has failed! Required input "message" of the condition "2" not connected

But I have a message:

Any suggestions? There’s nothing in openhab.log.

Mvh.

Please post the contents of the code tab.

Use code fences.

Everything looks as I would expect it to look.

Are you able to call this Thing Action from an Inline Script?

Please provide the full log line including the timestamp and the logger name. The logger name in particular is vital to know whether this is coming from Pushover or OH core.

Hi

I am not sure exactly what is it I should do, I haven’t used inline scripts before nor called Thing Actions. Do you have a template perhaps?

I can do this, which works

And there is nothing in the log files, the error message is only showing in the GUI.

OK, that shows the problem is with the UI or core or possibly with the add-on.

I think it’s with the UI so file an issue on the openhab-webui repo.

In the mean time, you’ll have to use an inline script for your rule action to send messages to Pushover.

You can use Blockly if you install the Pushover Block Library first. You can find it under Add-on Store → Automation → Block Libraries. Then in the Blockly editor you’ll find it under Libraries.

Unable to use pushover from rule UI due to " Required input "message" of the condition "2" not connected"

Thanks, I’ve created a ticket and I’ll try Blockly.

Mvh.
