[Axis Communications](https://www.axis.com/) devices are surveillance cameras, speakers, access control and other security-related network connected hardware. Event API works with firmware 5.50 and newer.
Home Assistant will automatically discover their presence on your network.
## Configuration
For configuration go to the `Integrations pane` on your Home Assistant instance.
<div class='note'>
It is recommended that you create a user on your Axis device specifically for Home Assistant. For all current functionality, it is enough to create a user belonging to user group viewer.

## Troubleshooting discovery
If your device is not discovered. On your camera, go to **System Options** -> **Advanced** -> **Plain Configuration**. Change the drop-down box to `network` and click `Select Group`. If `Network Interface I0 ZeroConf` contains the `169.x.x.x` IP address, unchecked the box next to `Enabled` for this section and click `Save`.
