Can Home Assistant trigger a Reolink recording event?

I installed the Reolink integration and now I’m struggling to figure out how an integration in HA would trigger a recording event in a Reolink camera. The use case is when a sensor goes active, trigger a recording event in a Reolink camera. For example a motion sensor around a corner would go active, trigger an automation, send a notification and start the Reolink camera to record for a set interval. This ensures recording is underway when the motion trigger comes around a corner.

I used to have this functionality with Zoneminder being triggered by a wifi door contact. Every camera near the door contact sensor would start recording.
