Following this post because I am also interested in the support of this product.

Would be really happy if some of the Developers here can integrate the cameras. Recently I’m experimenting a lot with Home Assistant (connected to Homey via MQTT), they have an unofficial Integration which isn’t working great either. They also discussed it over here [https://community.home-assistant.io/t/eufy-camera-integration/121758/150](https://community.home-assistant.io/t/eufy-camera-integration/121758/150)

Someone also mentioned that they changed a few things in the background not so long ago.

The biggest problem I see with the Eufy Cam products is the missing connection to other Smart Home products.

A quote from that thread: “I’ve seen rumors that the doorbell will soon support RTSP”

Homey doesn’t support RTSP, so even _if_ the device will become more open, you’ll still be running into a wall with regard to Homey-support.

</div>

I don’t have the door bell! I only have the battery powered security cameras which already support RTSP. I tried to add them to my Synology Surveillance. Connecting the camera was possible but unfortunately RTSP support is extremly unstable (I wouldn’t even call it Beta).

</div>

In any case, Homey doesn’t support RTSP so the same applies. If the camera’s support snapshotting though HTTP(S), they should already be supported by Homey.

In lack of a app for Eufy, you can use eufy for triggering other homey flows through Amazon alexa.  
( no image capture or video)

Connect your eufy doorbell to amazon alexa with the correct skill.  
Connect your homey to amazon alexa with the correct skill.

In homey create a virtual switch.

Now create a routine in Amazon alexa:

When (eufydoorbell) is pressed --\>action : turn on “virtual switch homey” on or off.

Now in Homey you can use the status of the virtual switch (on or off) in any flow.

Simple, clever, effective! I created a special zone in Homey called “virtual devices” and give those the exact name of the routine. Works!

What kind of Alexa do I need for this? Dot? Echo? Whats the cheapest? Does it work on the wired doorbell also?

You need an amazon alexa account, I guess it does not matter what device you use.

Never used Alexa before, sorry, didn’t know if you can use it without hardware.

It’s working now. Bought a second hand Dot for nothing just 5 minutes for your reply 😅

Thanks!
