A full sample configuration for the synology
camera platform is shown below:
# Example configuration.yaml entry
camera:
- platform: synology
url: https://192.168.1.120:5001
username: YOUR_USERNAME
password: YOUR_PASSWORD
timeout: 15
verify_ssl: False
Most users will need to set `verify_ssl` to false unless they have installed a valid SSL/TLS certificate in place of the built in self-signed certificate.
