Hello,  
I have a netatmo presence camera. When trying to start a flow when it detects a person, it doesn’t work. This seems strange, as I’m well notified by the Netatmo app.  
Can someone help setting-up a flow using this detection ?  
Thanks

Probably not very helpful but are you trying to detect motion or a person (by its name)? Does Homey have access to the recognised face? Or is it seeing unidentified person? I’m just guessing. I don’t have a Netatmo Presence.

if you share your flow, some one can check where it can go wrong. Good flows always work!

hello,  
my flow is very simple, I just use the human detection event to then create a notification.

Hello,  
Maybe a little late, but i got it work.  
It only works if there is a video.  
The standard is that netatmo is taking 1 video of a known person for the first time he’s coming home or seen for a set time in the app of netatmo.  
If there is a video in the app of netatmo it should work and send to the homey. Otherwise there is a notification without a video, and will not send to the homey.

You’re right. I mixed up netatmo presence and welcome. I’ve used the netatmo welcome.
