The `arlo` implementation allows you to integrate your [Arlo](https://arlo.netgear.com/) devices in Home Assistant.

To enable device linked in your [Arlo](https://arlo.netgear.com/) account, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:

```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
arlo:
  username: you@example.com
  password: secret
```

Configuration variables:

- **username** (*Required*): The username for accessing your Arlo account.
- **password** (*Required*): The password for accessing your Arlo account.

It is recommended to create a dedicated user on Arlo website to be used within Home Assistant and then share your Arlo cameras.

Finish its configuration by visiting the [Arlo sensor page](/components/sensor.arlo/) or [Arlo camera page](/components/camera.arlo/).
