UniFi Network integration - official thread

I’m using the unifi integration to generate a QR code for the guest network. Trying to see if there is a way to “save” the qr image to a png (or other file) in www/local or something along those lines, or is it only generated run-time?

The end goal is to be able to generate the image out of HA (which works fine) but actually host it on a separate page on a LINX dashboard?

so played around a bit with it and found a way to do this relatively easily, tested and looks good. The details to construct the link are actually in the entity state + attributes

this is the template i used to generate the link, where
image.guestnet_qr_code = qr entity from the unifi integration
entity_picture = link to the api with token embedded
state=timestamp that is used in the actual url

http://hassio.local:8123{{ state_attr('image.guestnet_qr_code', 'entity_picture') }}&state={{ states('image.guestnet_qr_code') }}

note - the token changes frequently, but using the template ensures im always pulling the current one being used by the integration

bit of a hack but it works
