Hello, I have a problem with the app image grabber and telegram.
When my doorbel rings i get a telegram message and a picture. The problem is i allways get the same picture its not a new one. So its a cache thing i think. But how can i clear it so i will get everytime a new picture.
When i use the image url in the browser i will get everytime a new one. So its a problem with the memory of homey ? @Jorden maybe you can help me ?
Can somebody help me with the correct setting for my hikvision camera.
I have build two flows
One to grab the image and the second to send the image via telegram.
But i dont get any image grabbed with the next url. http://user:pasword@192.168.178.XX:Portnumber/ISAPI/Streaming/channels/101/picture
thks for responding so quick on this special evening. can you help me more with “the image grabber field” where can I find? Can you add a screen shot?
First flow is if the doorbell rings then take a image.
Second flow if a image is grabbed then image send to telegram. And the tag image is the one you can select in the if part. If you have homey V2 then you need to select the local image.
is with the latest RC2 for Homey and App, Image Grabber still working? Not with my setup. When testing the flow with either a direct link incl user:password or via the secure option, both don’t resolve in a grabbed image.
I hope it works with you, can you let me know? Thx!
I have a 15 euro chinese webcam that I ordered once a long time ago. It didn’t have a snapshot function but I was able to hook it up to my Synology NAS and can use the builtin snapshot function of Synology Surveillance Station together with the app (version for Homey 2.0 coming up real soon!)
Can somebody send some screenshots on the “Tag stuff”?
I was able to let homey send something (text) to my Telegram so that is up and running.
I than have a flow:
If: Doorbell is pushed -> Than: Grab image Http://IP:port/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=snapPicture2&usr=EMAIL&pwd=PASSWORD
And a second flow:
If: Image is grabbed -> Than: Telegrambot -> (Tag) image Send image to me.
So I only use a tag in the second flow in the THAN column. And there is only 1 tag present. It’s called Image (in purple).
In the IF there are 2 tags under tags saying Image I.e. and URL. i.e. http://
Here I didn’t do anything.
