The `zoneminder` sensor platform let you monitor the current state of your zoneminder install including the number of events and the current state of the cameras.

<p class='note'>
You must have the [ZoneMinder component](/components/zoneminder/) configured to use those sensors.
</p>

To set it up, add the following information to your `configuration.yaml` file:

```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
  - platform: zoneminder
```
