The second option is to use STDIN inside add-on and use the service `hassio.addon_stdin` to send data. More about this options look into [developer documentation][communication] for internal add-on communication. There is also describe how do you can easy access to Home-Assistant Rest API.

The third option is to make a local add-on for Hass.io that sends the data to Home Assistant via MQTT. Before we dive into this, read up on [Hass.io add-on development][addons-tutorial] first.

For security and speed, Hass.io does not provide a way for containers to communicate directly. So the first step is to set up a communication channel. We're going to use MQTT for this using the [MQTT broker add-on][mqtt-addon].

We wait for incoming data from the MQTT broker. We can also use an `input_boolean` that triggers an automation to publish a custom command to MQTT topic that can process multiple things in one add-on.
