Bonjour.

Merci pour votre retour néanmoins je ne possède pas cet équipement. Je galère déjà avec la doorbell je ne vais pas me relancer à l’aveugle.

Si l’équipement générique fourni dans l’appli ne le supporte désolé mais je ne ferais pas plus tant que je n’ai pas cet équipement. Et je n’ai pas prévu de l’acheter.

Désolé.

Hi Pierre,

I have a Hikvision door Bell, but I don’t know if it can be supported.

Because this is the result of mine

Hello, thank you for your reply.  
can you try this one ?  
`curl --digest -k -u admin:doorbellPassword https://192.168.0.90/ISAPI/Event/notification/httpHosts`

Have you changed the listening ports on your doorbell?  
Do you have a port configuration screen like the one in the screenshot(mine is for a camera)?  
Could you send me a screenshot of it?

I didn’t make any changes on port’s and also I don’t have so much to change.

Also the curl answer doesn’t work

**I ran your curl and this is what I get:**

_?xml version=“1.0” encoding=“UTF-8”?  
ResponseStatus version=“1.0” xmlns=“[http://www.std-cgi.com/ver10/XMLSchema”](http://www.std-cgi.com/ver10/XMLSchema%E2%80%9D)

statusString\>Invalid Operation\</statusString  
subStatusCode\>invalidOperation\</subStatusCode  
errorCode\>1073741830\</errorCode  
errorMsg\>invalid operation\</errorMsg  
/ResponseStatus_

**I asked ChatGPT what it means (as I’m clueless) and it said:**

_✅ You authenticated successfully (Digest worked)  
 ❌ But the HTTP method you’re using is not allowed for that endpoint_

_Right now you’re doing a GET request (curl default)._

_On Hikvision ISAPI devices, /ISAPI/Event/notification/httpHosts usually requires:  
GET → to read config (sometimes disabled)  
PUT → to create/update config  
POST → sometimes for add  
DELETE → to remove_

_On many doorbells, GET is not supported, which causes Invalid Operation._

_Hikvision firmware often:  
Allows PUT  
Rejects GET  
Returns Invalid Operation instead of Method Not Allowed_

_🎯 Most Likely Situation_

_You are trying to read the HTTP notification config, but your doorbell firmware only allows writing, not reading._

**Then it suggested to try:**

_curl --digest -u admin:Precision123  
http://DOORBELL\_IP/ISAPI/Event/notification/alertStream_

**That returned:**

?xml version=“1.0” encoding=“UTF-8”?  
ResponseStatus version=“1.0” xmlns=“[http://www.std-cgi.com/ver10/XMLSchema”](http://www.std-cgi.com/ver10/XMLSchema%E2%80%9D)  
requestURL\>/ISAPI/Event/notification/alertStream\</requestURL  
statusCode\>4\</statusCode  
statusString\>Invalid Operation\</statusString  
subStatusCode\>invalidOperation\</subStatusCode  
errorCode\>1073741830\</errorCode  
errorMsg\>invalid operation\</errorMsg  
/ResponseStatus

**ChatGPT conclusion is:**

_So far, from your tests:  
/ISAPI/Event/notification/httpHosts → 404 + Invalid Operation  
/ISAPI/Event/notification/alertStream → Invalid Operation_

_This strongly indicates your firmware uses a different ISAPI structure than the newer Hikvision doorbells._

**I guess I can’t offer much help.**

Why does live streaming from the cameras only work from a web browser and not from the app?

I have 5 cameras linked to the app via NVR. Live image didn’t work for me either, snapshot and last event snapshot did.

In the NVR under Configuration/Video and Audio, adjusted the Video recording for each camera from H.265 to H.264.Now live image also works again with all cameras.

Dear Pierre,

first of all a big thank you for your effort, I waited for this app for 2 years 🙂 I wanted to use it with my door bell, and it works! I have the DS-KD8003-IME1-NS outdoor station. I can see the video stream, but I can’t open the door. Am I missing something, or this function is not available yet in the app? Or the “turn on/off” would be that? If yes, that’s not working.

Hi Guys, maybe this can help. If you need the latest api (isapi/otap) developer guides you can find them on [https://tpp.hikvision.com/download/ISAPI\_OTAP](https://tpp.hikvision.com/download/ISAPI_OTAP) (it includes, ipc,NVR, AxPro,Intercom etc..)

Keep up the great work Pierre!

This is the answer I receive from my doorbel when I execute `curl --digest -k -u admin:doorbellPassword http://DOORBELL_IP/ISAPI/Event/notification/httpHosts`

```auto
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

HTTPS throws an error on untrusted certificates

when adding the -k directive to curl I receive the following resonse:

And it’s not working with https mode ? 🤪  
If you use generic device have you some event ?

Hi,

I’ve vibe-coded a Homey app (with help from my trusty friend Claude!) to connect to my AX Pro.

If anyone would like to take it over and develop/maintain it properly, feel free to reach out.

By default the generic device uses http, so no events are registered with the generic device. I did switch to the ‘Use HTTPS’ = **YES** , but I see no differences.

Using HTTPS in combination with persistent get triggers a connectivity alarm, so no succes there either.

Hi Pierre,  
Great work on the app. I tested the doorbell ( **DS-KV9503-WBE1** ) and can see the video.

A PUT request to ISAPI/AccessControl/RemoteControl/door/1 opens the gate connected to the doorbell. Any chance to add that to your app?

Happy to do more testing if needed.
