I'm on the latest version of BI and trying to setup immediate actions in a trigger, specifically for a push notification. The documentation and other posts I've seen have entries at the top for 'Requred AI objects' and 'Skip with'. These are missing for my setup and I need to know how to have them available.

Immediate Actions don't have them, simply because "Immediate" means instantly when a motion trigger occurs. A blunt tool.
If you want to fine tune them you need Alert actions. Since they work after CPAI etc, they DO have those extra boxes, and you can fine tune them with car, dog etc. Hope that helps

Oh got it now, thank you. FYI, the immediate actions were including the AI data so that is getting processed before the notifications is sent.

Interesting ! I think in my case where I have ALPR checking 30 images with 100ms between them that I would see a 3 second difference. I spotted this when I was trying Immediate and Alert actions to turn on the drive lights when motion was detected. Alert actions (CPAI car or person only) seemed to work when a person left the image, but Immediate actions really caught them just entering the image. Unfortunately Immediate also meant the lights were triggered by absolutely anything
