No no events are recorded, only in debug mode do I see some squares happening sometimes. I have also required_zones set and
detect:
stationary:
interval: 0
threshold: 50
max_frames:
objects:
car: 50
person: 50
Every wind blow that moves the bushes triggers a notification, but no recording.
I donât have an exact answer but Iâd suggest putting a zone for cars that does not include the closest part of the normal car parking location. Frigate looks at object zones only based on the bottom of the object box. If the car when parked is not in the car zone, it shouldnât cause issues.
You can use the disable times option also
The problem if I at home I got - not critical notification between 7AM-12AM why?
I cannot figure out the problem

I had an issue with the _2 name on my camera, rename the camera to living instead of living_2 and now the notifications are working! Thanks SgtBatten!
Hello, I have a question about the âBase URLâ. My current setup is I have the cloudFlared for remote access. I believe that means I will need to add the cloudFlared domain in the Base URL section. When I do that, clicking the âview clipâ button will bring me to the url https://mydomain.com/api/frigate/notification/some_numbers/camera_name/clip.mp4. I noticed this url can be accessed anywhere without login (I can see the clip in the incognito window). My concern is if this is going to become a security/privacy issue?
correct. this is what the frigate notification api gives us. The event id is different for every event and provides some obfuscation. You can set an expiry time in the configuration of the frigate integration also.
One issue I have identified with this update btw. Although the Live View entity selection lets you have the iPhone real-time stream work well, this now causes an issue on the Apple Watch alert (video animation doesnt appear anymore). For the apple watch, it works with the frigate camera entity, but not the MJPEG generic camera entity, however this setup doesnât work on the iphone, since the iPhone requires the MJPEG generic camera entity.
What should a group target look like? I created a YAML notify group, like this:
But it doesnât seem to be working.
In that example where it has name: "My notification group"
There are two options. Either My notification group or notify.my_notification_group
Capitalisation and spaces instead of underscores do not matter
I have setup everything as per instructions in Hassio. Frigate is working and creating events. MQTT is getting messages from Frigate. The only problems seems to be frigate/events is not getting any messages. I get frigate/camera name message, frigate/stats and so on. I have check logs and all seems ok. Any suggestions on where I should look to solve the problem. I am keen to get this automation firing.
this seems somewhat contradictory? Can you share the mqtt portion of your frigate config?
Yes it does sound contradictory. Thanks for your help.

Sorry.

3rd time lucky
thanks, by the sound of it that is working fine. is home assistant also connected to the same mqtt server?
I am runing mosquitto from Integrations within Hassio. So I assume so.
Thanks for your help. For some reason after several days I have received some messages to events. Let me keep investiggating.
if you go and trigger your camera you should see events in real time.
