Icloud photos integration

I’m currently running Home Assistant with one page integrating a DAK board screen. Currently the layout of the Calendar is much better but also there is a slide show with a specific shared album from my icloud account. If that would be possible with Home Assistant, I would gladly get rid of DAK entirely.

Does someone have an idea if that is possible or who else tried this?

Hi,
Do you found some function soltion?
I woudl like to use same usecase as you.

THx.

I’ve been trying to do the same thing with no luck so far!

Just today I started with to extend the Home Assistant “iCloud integration” with “media-source”. This would allow for having access to your iCloud Photos via the “Home Assistant media functionality”. I’m not sure if I’ll ever finish and publish my implementation. But the low-level pyicloud library allows for accessing iCloud Photos and files.

My use-case is that I would like to auto-download my photos from iCloud to some storage. After download I would delete the photos from iCloud to free up space on iCloud. I now use a python-package for this, which I trigger as a shell-command.
