HA 2023.7 introduced the new ‘Image’ integration and associated ‘image’ entity, but the documentation is spectacularly unhelpful in working out what I can actually do with this new entity type.
I vaguely understand that an ‘image’ is a subset of the ‘camera’ entity type, but what service calls can I make on an ‘image’ entity? I’ve only encountered this entity type because one of the integrations I use has recently changed from using a ‘camera’ entity to using an ‘image’ entity, and I had some automations tied in to using the ‘camera.snapshot’ service call to make a local copy of said image.
How can I save a copy of the image provided by an ‘image’ entity? Can I access the local path provided by the ‘image’ entity?
You can look in Developer Tools → Services for any new image services. But according to the documentation (which is empty), there are none (because it would be listed there). So you’ll have to come up with a new way to save the image as a new file.
