Documentation

OpenAlarm is an alarm alerting platform. You keep your own alarm system, and an alarm here is the record you create in the console for it. Your sensors, cameras or automations trigger that alarm over HTTP, and OpenAlarm texts, calls, and emails the people you trust - in order, until someone acknowledges. It does not watch anything and has no siren of its own. These docs cover the console, the integrations, and the public core API (api.openalarm.io) - the contract the Home Assistant integration and @openalarm SDKs consume.
