here is a little guide with the Tasker App for android (without the plugin)
Guide: Eufy Push-Notifications to Homey via Tasker

This method safely extracts the exact notification content directly from the Android status bar and forwards it to Homey using universal event parameters.

1. The Homey Flow Setup

  • Create a New Flow (or Advanced Flow) in Homey.

  • WHEN: Logic → A webhook event has been received

    • Event Name: eufy_event

  • THEN: Add your action (e.g., Push notification). You can use the local text variable Tag provided by the Webhook trigger card to access the incoming notification text.

for me the “Kinderzimmer” is one of the camera i use as a babyphone → this is in the text value and i can react now to this instead of the eufy “when” card as a workaround…

2. Tasker Profile Configuration

  1. Open Tasker, go to the Profiles tab, and tap the + icon (bottom right).

  2. Select Event → UI → Notification.

  3. Configure the Event as follows:

    • Owner Application: Tap the lens icon and select Eufy Security.

    • Leave all other fields (Title, Text, etc.) blank.

  4. Tap the Back arrow (top left) to save the profile.

3. Tasker Task Configuration

Tasker will prompt you to link a task. Select New Task +, name it (e.g., Eufy to Homey), and add the following action:

  1. Tap + (bottom right) → search for HTTP Request (under Network).

  2. Configure the HTTP Request like this:

    • Method: GET

    • URL: [https://webhook.homey.app/YOUR_HOMEY_ID/eufy_event](https://webhook.homey.app/YOUR_HOMEY_ID/eufy_event) (Replace with your actual Homey ID)

    • Query Parameters:

      Plaintext

      tag:%evtprm2 - %evtprm3

      (Note: %evtprm2 passes the Notification Title/Camera Name, and %evtprm3 passes the actual message text).

  3. Tap the Back arrow to save the action.

=> you can test the thing with the little Play Button on the left down corner

should look like that in the end

4. Critical Android Settings (Don’t skip!)

For this to work smoothly in the background, make sure the following system settings are applied:

  • Notification Access: Go to Android Settings → search for Notification Access → ensure Tasker is enabled.

  • Battery Optimization: Go to Tasker’s App Info → Battery → set to Unrestricted.

  • Save in Tasker: Don’t forget to tap the Checkmark icon in the top right corner of the main Tasker screen to apply and activate the changes!
