- **RTSP**: These devices have an HLS stream served by the Home Assistant Core. These cameras support server-side `camera` actions like stream recording or image preview. See [Low Latency HLS](/integrations/stream#ll-hls) as a great option to enable to reduce stream latency.
|
||||
- **WebRTC**: These devices support direct browser to camera communication and a super low latency stream. A [Picture Glance Card](/dashboards/picture-glance/) can show the live stream in the grid with the *Camera View* set to `live` (not recommended for battery-powered cameras). `camera` actions like stream recording are *not supported*.

Nest event entities do not yet expose media for use in attachments.

## Automation and device triggers
|

|

The Nest integration provides [device triggers](/docs/automation/trigger/#device-triggers) to enable automation in Home Assistant. You should review the [Automating Home Assistant](/getting-started/automation/) getting started guide on automations or the [Automation](/docs/automation/) documentation for full details.
|
||||
|
||||
Device triggers will wait to fire after any media associated with the event is downloaded. Use an
|
||||
event entity for immediate notifications without media.
