      Hello,

      Been using Pushover for notifications for years and finally setting them up with pfSense. What I can't figure out is how to specify a specific pushover device aka Aaron's iPhone. Doing so, sends the pushover notification to just one device and not every device on the account ie Phones, tablets, computers etc.

      Looking at the pfSense API, it looks like they know what a "device" is. But I can't enter anything without pfSense giving me an UI warning. I tried user-key and enter a "comma" and a "ampersand". Like I said, how do I enter a "device=" into pfSenses Pushover configuration?

      
      The following input errors were detected:
      
          User keys are case-sensitive, 30 characters long, and can only use the character set A-Z,a-z,0-9
      

      token = api_key=&user_key=&device=&title=

      Thanks,

        There is no way to do that through the pfSense GUI. Or no intended way at least.

        You are trying to do it by appending it to the user key value?

        You might be able to enter that in the config directly. It also might break it!

          Yes, adding it to the user key. Essentially, its all one long string sent to pushover. I'm doing a similar thing with my home automation, ISY994i. If its going to look for a 30 char value, then this is not going to work.

          Just hoping there was a box for "custom parameters" or something on those lines.

            It doesn't look like the error checking includes a 30 character limit there. But even if it did entering a value in the config directly bypasses that.

            You can open a feature request to include a custom options field:
