And about the stream?
Is there an alternative way to read the flow of my camera?
You can always manually copy the blueprint yaml into home assistant if import isnât working
If you arenât viewing the stream at the time of the event then the event is likely over anyway.
Change on of your action buttons to open frigate instead and you can load the camera feeds there.
Works like a charm. Thank you.

Hey @SgtBatten, does 0.12.0.3c beta still work with the latest Frigate that was released, 0.14? I ask because I sometimes get notifications of FPs on my phone via Frigate Notifications, but not on Frigate itself. Iâve reloaded and made sure that the Home Assistant Frigate integration has been updated, but still have this happen on occasion. Any ideas?
It should, but you can always update to 12.0.4 which is only minor improvements. The frigate 0.14 update didnât break old stuff, it just introduced new stuff which we are testing in a pull request, not in beta.
I guess what I donât get is why it comes up with a screenshot and a bounding box around the object that it thought it detected, but canât find the video when attempting to the view the clip (it says false in the JSON output). When reviewing Frigate itself, itâs nowhere to be found. Any idea what could be causing it if this update doesnât fix it?
Everything except video attachments are working for me on iOS, Frigate 0.14 (externally hosted, not HA addon), and blueprint 0.12.0.4a.
Anyone have video attachments working? My config:

The âView Clipâ button works and opens the clip in my browser, so it does exist.

Hello,
I would like to edit the âtap_actionâ so that it contains a link to a custom url.
I have created a âtestâ script that generates said url, and also spawns a variable called âpathâ that I intend to use down below the flow.
alias: Test Generate link
sequence:
- variables:
link_id: 0{% for _ in range(39) %}{{ range(10)|random }}{% endfor %}
- data:
link_id: "{{ link_id }}"
entity: camera.porche_sub
open_limit: 1
time_to_live: 60
action: webrtc.create_link
- variables:
path: /webrtc/embed?url={{ link_id }}
- data:
message: path={{ path }}
action: persistent_notification.create
Which I then fire this way :
alias: Test Notif IA Frigate
description: >-
Blabla
use_blueprint:
path: SgtBatten/Stable.yaml
input:
camera: camera.porche_2
notify_device: 7ebed67d640b24ff8f3a9789d9b22094
attachment: snapshot.jpg?bbox=1
update_thumbnail: true
tv: false
base_url: https://hass.redacted.com
sound: custom.caf
alert_once: true
custom_action_auto:
- action: script.turn_on
metadata: {}
data:
myvar1: zzz
myvar2: ggg
target:
entity_id: script.test
tap_action: "{{base_url}}{{path}}"
This does not work. What I am trying to do in this yaml code is to run the âscript.testâ so that it returns/publishes the âpathâ variable, that i then need to use in the tap_action.
When testing, âpathâ returns ânoneâ, so when i tap the notification on my phone it redirects me to âhttps://hass.redacted.comnoneâ.
When i run my âscript.testâ individually through âsettings > automations > scriptsâ, i can see it generates a string fine, and the message in the âpersistent_notificationâ contains correct values.
What is the correct way of achieving this ? I am new to scripting in HA. Could it be a variable scope issue ? How to solve this ?
Thank you
I have been working with the new blueprint and have the same issue with video clips. I donât see them at all but I suspect it is because of my Frigate config. I donât create a video clip for the events I am testing with. If I look in the Frigate media folder there are no clips associated with the specific object and zone I am testing with. I need to test with a different area that I do store clips for and see if that shows the video clip via the action button.
With these notifications, it appears possible to create alerts without having the associated clips actually stored in Frigate. In this case, the expectation of video clips being available and the underlying Frigate config need to match.
The Front Street zone is what I am testing with. Based on this config, there are no clips being stored. I would need to add the Front Street to the alerts and then it will probably work. TestingâŠ
The frigate/events topic is not 1 to 1 with stored events, never has been.
Could be that,
Could be you arenât recording clips on that camera or situation
The reviews topic uses in the latest 0.14 frigate and also in the pull request on the blueprint GitHub is a 1 to 1 detection.
Iâm not super familiar with what you are doing but The blueprint doesnât wait for the script, it wasnât intended to get data back, just to trigger the action.
What if you didnât use a random string but the frigate event ID instead that way you manually set the tap action to the known url that will be created by the script.
The link is random because the link is set to expire after X seconds and/or after it has been open Y times. This adds extra layers of security because the link is reachable from the world wide web (not a LAN url).
What does custom_action_auto do ? I does not even run script.test in my example above. Isnât it what it is supposed to do ? Would a delay solve the problem ? Or is âcustom_action_autoâ supposed to be executed AFTER the tap_action has been interpreted ?
Thank you.
Whatâs your suggestion here? Are you suggesting to try another âtopicâ besides âfrigate/eventsâ? Is there a âfrigate/reviewsâ that I could try instead?
Look at the pull request for frigate 0.14 on the GitHub page for this blueprint. You can use that version of the blueprint.
Yes but the frigate ID is also unique and random and known. So instead of trying to create a random link and feed it back, use the ID from the event which doesnât need to be fed back to he blueprint.
Are you certain? What logs are you getting. Is it being triggered by an update?
custom action auto fires only during the initiation of the automation if all conditions are met. If they arenât met at the beginning it wouldnât work.
âYes but the frigate ID is also unique and random and knownâ â I need, on top of the uniqueness and randomness, the id to be expirable. So that if an attacker guesses/finds the url, it will only work during X seconds or X times (as I explained earlier). For such a protection, you need a id that is rolling, not an id that is âknownâ, aka âfixedâ or âstaticâ, no matter how long/complex chars. It has to change so that past links/urls/ids become obsolete.
âAre you certain? What logs are you getting. Is it being triggered by an update?â Where do I find such logs ? I donât know, I expected you to tell me how to run a script in your yaml tbh 
All I know is my âscript.testâ within âcustom_action_autoâ is not fired.
So I understand I canât have callbacks. How about the following trick then : I would have a script than runs once a day a sets an entity like âinput_text.my_unique_idâ. Is it possible to retrieve âmy_unique_idâ inside your âtap_actionâ, such as â{{{ my_unique_id}}}â. How ?
Thank you.
thatâs not true. The frigate integration has a configuration option to set how long after the event started that the unauthenticated access is allowed, so you could make it so the link only works for 5 minutes for example. Or you can disable that and make it only work if you provide an auth token.
Frigate does not have such a thing.
