I’m not sure if I’m too stupid or the documentation is lacking, but I’m unable to setup a simple notification with camera snapshot that works from anywhere, not only on local network.
I’m running HA OS VM on proxmox; installed via helper script.
I can’t save the camera snapshot as a file. I’ve tried the automatic snapshot, and it works but only on local network. /api/camera_proxy/camera.name
service: camera.snapshot
metadata: {}
data:
filename: /www/last_motion.jpg
target:
entity_id: camera.kamera
enabled: true
I’m getting this error:
Failed to call service script/brame_rower. Cannot write
/www/last_motion.jpg
, no access to path;allowlist_external_dirs
may need to be adjusted inconfiguration.yaml
If then I add
allowlist_external_dirs:
- /config/www/
or any other /www/ /www /config variation to “/homeassistant/configuration.yaml”, I’m getting a warning in developer tools check config tool
Configuration warnings Integration error: allowlist_external_dirs - Integration ‘allowlist_external_dirs’ not found
and it doesn’t work, no image is shown.
