To get your Skybell.com cameras working within Home Assistant, please follow the instructions for the general Skybell component.

{% linkable_title Configuration %}

Once you have enabled the Skybell component, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
camera:
  - platform: skybell

{% configuration %} monitored_conditions: description: The camera images to display. Default is avatar. The full list is avatar, activity. required: false type: list avatar_name: description: Name to append to the device name for the avatar image. Default is empty string. required: false type: string activity_name: description: Name to append to the device name for the last activity image. Default is empty string. required: false type: string {% endconfiguration %}

{% linkable_title Camera Types %}

There are two available camera types "Avatar", which is the default, displays the Skybell avatar image. It is periodically updated with a fresh image. The other type is "Activity", which displays a snapshot from the latest event (motion, bell, or on demand) captured by the camera. You may show either camera, or both, by specifying its name under monitored_condtions. It's recommended, but not required, to set either avatar_name or activity_name if you are showing both cameras so you can tell them apart. The name will be appended to the skybell device name.

# Example configuration.yaml with both images
camera:
  - platform: skybell
    monitored_conditions:
    - avatar
    - activity
    activity_name: "Last Activity"
# Example configuration.yaml with just last activity image
camera:
  - platform: skybell
    monitored_conditions:
    - activity
