http listening

[tommi]

Hello, everybody,
I'm trying to send out an alert using http. Concretely: A relay should be triggered when an intrusion is detected. Using a browser this works without problems. I can't do it from the camera.

This works in a browser: http://192.168.179.41:8087/toggle/shelly.0.SHSW-1#C489E5#1.Relay0.Switch?

The Settings in the Hikvision cam:

Intrusion Alarm Settings:

Recording or sending emails in case of intrusion detection works without any problems.

Sorry for the screenshots in german, I wasn´t able to switch to english.

Greetings,
tommi

Interesting thing @tommi. I didnt even know about this.
What is it suppose to do? Trigger that http when Event / Smart Event is triggered? Or arm the camera when that http is triggered from somewhere else?
How are you using that? Some home automation tool?

I could be wrong but it sounds like a limitation of that camera model. The image below is from the R3 series and it offers more options for Alarm handling. As @rompik mentioned, what is the function of the relay?

I am currently exploring the possibilities.
Actually an alarm should trigger the http command. But that doesn't work.

Thanks @tommi.
I have that option as well in my camera but it wasn't even mentioned in documentation hence my question.

I have always wanted to integrate Hikvision cameras to Smartthings but I don't think it is supported. In Smartthings you can create virtual switches that send HTTP command to another device (same as Hikvision) but I don't think there is an option to listen for HTTP commands.
What did you want to use to respond to alarm from cameras? Some home automation tool??
