Hi, my name is Markus 👋

Automate Reolink camera notifications with Home Assistant to overcome app limitations like geo-fencing and scheduling. Create custom notifications based on location, time, or other conditions by configuring simple YAML scripts, improving the flexibility and intelligence of your home security system.

In this post, we will walk through the process of integrating Reolink Network Cameras into Home Assistant. With this integration, you can stream live footage, set up motion detection automations, and even record clips based on events.

Smart homes increasingly use temperature and humidity sensors for automation, and I've installed over 10 throughout my house, including the garden, attic, fridge, and pool. ZigBee sensors are ideal for this due to their low power consumption and reliable communication, allowing them to operate on batteries for months or even years.
