Anyone know of a way to control the new Unifi Siren PoE from Home Assistant? I have the Unifi Protect integration running, but doesn’t look like the Siren is supported in the integration yet…so looking to see if there are any other “creative” ways to control it.
Found one way to do this. You can configure a Webhook alert within Unifi Protect and then call it from Home Assistant using the RESTful Command action.
Hi, can you please give more details? I tried also to make a webhook but it doesn’t work. The webhook in the Unifi Alarm Manager is in on the left in the trigger side, right?
Thanks in advance
Create an alarm in unifi protect alarm manager with webhook as the trigger and siren as the action. It will give you a trigger url. you will also need to generate an api key from control plane - integrations
curl -k -X POST
’https://trigger url from unifi protect’
-H 'X-API-KEY: your api key’
Thanks for the hints, it works ![]()
Just to get it straight, what am I able to do with the webhook?
In other words, is it possible to control the siren and the siren colors from HA?
Edit: this made it much clearer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NnyRBX-1qLk
