Toggle Specific Objects On or Off #13993

Closed codeinstitution closed 1 month ago

Describe what you are trying to accomplish and why in non technical terms I want to toggle detection for certain objects on/off without editing the frigate.yaml. Ideally via API/MQTT/Home Assistant. For example, when I have company over, I don't want to record if it detects people on my porch but still want to record if a new car comes in or pets etc. Then when company leaves, go back to detecting people again. Right now, I have to manually edit the yaml which gets annoying so I just turn off detection all together.

Describe the solution you'd like API/MQTT/Home Assistant ability to toggle detect
