Unifi Protect Crossing Lines Support

It would be great if crossing line notifications were added to the Unifi Protect integration.

The problem is not to distinguish between different types of detections. The problem is that currently Crossing line does not come up in the status of “detected_object”-entity at all. It just stays “none”. So Crossing line can’t now be used i HA. It’s ok if it detects as “person” or “vehicle” like other smart detections. Great if this could this be fixed in the Protect integration.

I am new to HA but just about anything can be done
and HA has access directly to unifi already with the intergration

One can scrape this page

https://[console ip]/protect/detections/grid?type=smartDetectLine

all lines crossing are shown:
Jun 25, 19:30

camera name is shown:
<span class="text-base_xxxxxx data-label=“Driveway”>Driveway

i just don’t know how to do this with HA at the moment :slightly_smiling_face:

thanks

With the latest version of protect 4.1.31, it adds an alarm manager and you can use webhooks as actions. There is a trigger for line crossing so this is now possible to trigger an automation in HA
