The `synology` camera platform allows you to watch the live streams of your [Synology](https://www.synology.com/) Surveillance Station based IP cameras in Home Assistant.
|
||
|
||
To enable your Surveillance Station cameras in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
# Minimum configuration.yaml entry
|
||
camera:
|
||
- platform: synology
|
||
url: IP_ADDRESS_OF_SYNOLOGY_NAS
|
||
username: YOUR_USERNAME
|
||
password: YOUR_PASSWORD
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Configuration variables:
|
||
|
||
- **url** (*Required*): The URL to your synology, including port.
|
||
- **username** (*Required*): The username for accessing surveillance station.
|
||
- **password** (*Required*): The password for accessing surveillance station.
|
||
- **timeout** (*Optional*): The timeout in seconds used when connecting to the Surveillance Station. Defaults to 5.
|
||
- **whitelist** (*Optional*): A list of which cameras you want to add, the names must be the same as in Surveillance Station. If omitted all cameras are added.
|
||
- **verify_ssl** (*Optional*): True to require a valid certificate, False to disable certificate checking. Defaults to `True`.
|
||
|
||
A full sample configuration for the `synology` platform is shown below:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
||
camera:
|
||
- platform: synology
|
||
url: https://192.168.1.120:5001
|
||
username: YOUR_USERNAME
|
||
password: YOUR_PASSWORD
|
||
timeout: 15
|
||
verify_ssl: False
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
<p class='note'>
|
||
Most users will need to set `verify_ssl` to false unless they have installed a valid SSL certificate in place of the built in self-signed certificate.
