Hello,
I have already imported cameras from synology surveillance station and enabled motion_detection: true
But trigger not working. Do you have idea?
alias: sarunas-room-state
description: ""
trigger:
- platform: state
entity_id:
- camera.synology_sarunas_room
attribute: motion_detection
condition: []
action:
- type: turn_on
device_id: <device id>
entity_id: switch.sarunasroom_switch_1
domain: switch
mode: single
I use similar setup, but what I do is on Synology side create webhook call to HA when there is motion detected.
@BeardedConti
How to create webhook in HA?
And did you create action rule in synology home page or surveillance page?
Hi @BeardedConti
I found how to trigger through webhook and it works, thank you, but one problem:
When lights turns off camera detect it as motion and turn lights again and looping turn on, turn off, turn on, turn off, maybe some one has a solution for that?
That’s awesome stuff.
Thank you - it’s really helpful!
Could you please share the solution? I’m looking for the same method
One option would be:
If the automation is triggered by the webhook again, just check, if the “Motion state” changed recently.
And proceed only if it did not:
Means: If your light is on for 3 minutes and motion is triggered after these three minutes (caused by changing lights), just ignore this with:
condition: state
entity_id: sensor.motion_sensor
state: "off"
for:
hours: 0
minutes: 3
seconds: 10
could you please share a step by step ?
too much info out there…
@NCO3
But in that case, we’re not going to leave the light on if I move around the yard, are we?
@loveHomeAssistkevin , @riko
You need to create action rule in synology which sends webhook to the HA:
and create HA automation:
No, you are right - that’s an issue unless is acceptable.
I you are not doing excersises in the yard, a tim of 5 min would cover 95% of your use cases.
But basically my suggestion above is just a workaround and does not cover all use cases.
