+# Pushbullet
-> ### Note
->
-> This file assumes you have read the [Introduction to Agent alert notifications](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/health/notifications/README.md), detailing how the Netdata Agent's alert notification method works.

+Send notifications to Pushbullet using Netdata's Agent alert notification feature, which supports dozens of endpoints, user roles, and more.
-## Prerequisites
-You will need:
-- a Pushbullet access token that can be created in your [account settings](https://www.pushbullet.com/#settings/account)
-- terminal access to the Agent you wish to configure

-## Configure Netdata to send alert notifications to Pushbullet
+## Setup
-> ### Info
->
-> This file mentions editing configuration files.
->
-> - To edit configuration files in a safe way, we provide the [`edit config` script](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/nodes.md#use-edit-config-to-edit-configuration-files) located in your [Netdata config directory](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/nodes.md#the-netdata-config-directory) (typically is `/etc/netdata`) that creates the proper file and opens it in an editor automatically.
-> Note that to run the script you need to be inside your Netdata config directory.
->
-> It is recommended to use this way for configuring Netdata.
+### Prerequisites
-Edit `health_alarm_notify.conf`, changes to this file do not require restarting Netdata:
+####
-1. Set `Send_PUSHBULLET` to `YES`.
-2. Set `PUSHBULLET_ACCESS_TOKEN` to the token you generated.
-3. Set `DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_PUSHBULLET` to the email (e.g. `example@domain.com`) or the channel tag (e.g. `#channel`) you want the alert notifications to be sent to.
+- A Pushbullet access token that can be created in your [account settings](https://www.pushbullet.com/#settings/account).
+- Access to the terminal where Netdata Agent is running
- > ### Note
- >
- > Please note that the Pushbullet notification service will send emails to the email recipient, regardless of if they have a Pushbullet account or not.
- You can define multiple entries like this: `user1@email.com user2@email.com`.
- All roles will default to this variable if left unconfigured.
-4. While optional, you can also set `PUSHBULLET_SOURCE_DEVICE` to the identifier of the sending device.
-You can then have different recipients per **role**, by editing `DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_PUSHBULLET` with the recipients you want, in the following entries at the bottom of the same file:
+### Configuration
+#### File
+
+The configuration file name for this integration is `health_alarm_notify.conf`.
+
+
+You can edit the configuration file using the `edit-config` script from the
+Netdata [config directory](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/nodes.md#the-netdata-config-directory).
+
+```bash
+cd /etc/netdata 2>/dev/null || cd /opt/netdata/etc/netdata
+sudo ./edit-config health_alarm_notify.conf
+```

+
+All roles will default to this variable if left unconfigured.
+
+The `DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_PUSHBULLET` can be edited in the following entries at the bottom of the same file:

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# pushbullet (pushbullet.com) push notification options
SEND_PUSHBULLET="YES"
PUSHBULLET_ACCESS_TOKEN="XXXXXXXXX"
DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_PUSHBULLET="admin1@example.com admin3@somemail.com #examplechanneltag #anotherchanneltag"

+
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Test Notification
+
+You can run the following command by hand, to test alerts configuration:
+
+```bash
+# become user netdata
+sudo su -s /bin/bash netdata
+
+# enable debugging info on the console
+export NETDATA_ALARM_NOTIFY_DEBUG=1
+
+# send test alarms to sysadmin
+/usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/alarm-notify.sh test
+
+# send test alarms to any role
+/usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/alarm-notify.sh test "ROLE"
```
-## Test the notification method
+Note that this will test _all_ alert mechanisms for the selected role.
+
-To test this alert notification method refer to the ["Testing Alert Notifications"](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/health/notifications/README.md#testing-alert-notifications) section of the Agent alert notifications page.
