I set up my octoprint instance as per https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/octoprint/
The camera entity is set up as this:
I can access the live feed just fine but how do I access the snapshot entity? I would like to take that and pass it to a notification so I can see the snapshot on my mobile app.
Look for the camera.snapshot service in Services…
Example at bottom of the docs page
Yes I got it to work with that service but I was wondering if you can just call it like you can call the camera.octoprintcam entity since you give it the snapshot url (what is the point of still_image_url otherwise?)
If you don’t use the stream service or if it cannot load the stream that will be the image you see for the camera view… updates about every 10 seconds by default I believe.
I see, thanks for explaining, got it setup with the camera.snapshot service and works ok like that
