This is an app that can subscribe to events posted from the Swedish police.

- Install the app
- Add a new Polisnytt API Device
- Make sure to set one or more locations in the settings for the device

Currently there is only one trigger card (An event occured) but let me know if there is something you’re missing except for the actual type-o (occured → ocurred). I’ll fix that in a future release.

Note that all events that comes from this API is in swedish.

For every event there’s a link to a one pager more detailed text.  
Would it be possible to add either the link to polisnytt.se/happening or the text body as a separate variable for easy access?

Yeah, I can get you the full URL to the article page as a token if you want. Unfortunately they don’t provide the full body in the API. It might be possible to scrape the page though for that info but that can be a little shaky. Here is how the API response looks like:

</div>

Yes, it would be good to have full link in a URL tag.

Also wonder if a ‘Tap to copy link’ on the notification itself (much like Chrome is able to do) could work, as a link text in e.g push notification isn’t that useful.

Unfortunately there is no support for adding any actions to the push notifications since that’s a part of Homeys architecture

Not yet, but let’s hope actionable notifications is part of the roadmap. 😋

Is there a limitation of number of characters in summary “Polisens ledningscentral har dirigerat en polisbil till trafikplats Gubbängen för att utföra en fordons- och f”  
missing last word “förarkontroll.”

Hmm, yeah unfortunately this seems to be the response we get from their API. In other words, not much I can do about it

@To_Lou, On the latest version I’ve added some new tokens: URL, Location, Latitude and Longitude.

Hi Lasse. You would just pipe the output of the “when”-cards tags and do whatever you want with it. Here is an example of how to send a push notification

Hi,  
First of all, thanks for a great app!

I miss the option to use “and” or logic cards for filtering.  
For example, my police region has recently begun to send out messages about spokes person is not avalaible during the night shift almost every day. I would like to not get this messages at all.

Thanks! You should be able to use the normal logic cards for filtering what you want or do not want

I can’t reach anything from the app Polisnytt in And-card?

You have to connect the lines in order for the Logic card to get the available tags from that card

Can we do that on the Widget? I want everything except the spokes person that they are sending out 2 each day.

Maybe 2 fields when setting up widet,

Does include

Does not invlude

Thank you for your app!
