The `usps` camera component allows you to view the mail piece images made available through USPS via the Informed Delivery service. You must "Opt-In" to [Informed Delivery](https://informeddelivery.usps.com/box/pages/intro/start.action) to see mail images. This works in concert with [USPS sensors](/components/sensor.usps).
<p class='note'>
You must have the [USPS component](/components/usps/) configured to use this camera. The camera will be setup if the `usps` component is configured and the required configuration is set.
</p>
## {% linkable_title Configuration %}
To customize the interval that mail images are rotated in the mail camera you can edit your `configuration.yaml` file with the following settings:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
camera:
- platform: usps
scan_interval: 5
```
To enable this camera in your installation, set up the [USPS component](/components/usps) with your username and password.

The `usps` platform allows one to track deliveries and inbound mail from the [US Postal Service (USPS)](https://www.usps.com/).
In addition to having a USPS account, you will need to complete the "Opt-In" process for packages by clicking "Get Started Now" on [this page](https://my.usps.com/mobileWeb/pages/intro/start.action). You must also "Opt-In" to [Informed Delivery](https://informeddelivery.usps.com/box/pages/intro/start.action) to see inbound mail.
There is currently support for the following device types within Home Assistant:
- [Camera](#camera)
- [Sensor](#sensor)
## {% linkable_title Prerequisites %}
This component requires that a headless-capable web browser is installed on your system - either PhantomJS or Google Chrome. Preferably use Chrome if your operating system supports it, since PhantomJS is deprecated.

The USPS sensor logs into the MyUSPS website to scrape package data. It does not use an API.
