Camera SMTP Config

SMTP

Here you can set the SMTP settings for the camera specifically. Normally camera.ui triggers a movement only if the email address it goes to matches the camera name.

But this can be overridden here.

  • Via "email" you can give the camera a different address (without @)
  • With "from" you can tell camera.ui that any email FROM this address should trigger a movement (without @)
  • With "body" camera.ui can (if the camera could not be found by the email addresses) search the content of the email for the word entered in this field

Example:

"name": "My Camera",
"videoConfig": {
  ...
},
"smtp": {
  "email": "My Camera",
  "from": "My NVR",
  "body": "My Camera"
}

Info

Attributes Required Usage Default Options
email The "email to" address (without everything after @) to be assigned to this camera (e.g. my test camera. If not defined, the camera name will be used)
from The "email from" address (without everything after @) to be assigned to this camera (e.g. my test camera. If not defined, the camera name will be used)
body If camera.ui can't find out the name of the camera by the email address, you can enter a term here so that camera.ui can search the text content of the email for this term and thus assign the camera
