Bring!
The Bring! integration allows you to interact with your Bring! shopping lists within Home Assistant.
For authentication, the integration requires the email and password you used for your Bring! account. If you want to automatically receive notifications via the Bring! app when Home Assistant adds or removes an item from the list, you should use a dedicated account (such as email: your.name+ha@gmail.com) to connect Home Assistant with Bring!.
Configuration
To add the Bring! integration to your Home Assistant instance, use this My button:
If the above My button doesn’t work, you can also perform the following steps manually:
-
Browse to your Home Assistant instance.
-
In the bottom right corner, select the Add Integration button.
-
From the list, select Bring!.
-
Follow the instructions on screen to complete the setup.
Services
