Send command from nodered to blue iris cam to start recording/snapshot #97

I'd like to send a command from nodered (homeassistant) to my camera to start the record whenever one of my pir sensors is triggered.

My PIR sensors are configured with mqtt and my nodered picks the commands up to alert me via telegram.

Would love to be able to send a command to the BI cameras to start the record snapshot (>goes to my deepstack/AI tool) whenever a PIR picks up motion. (in cases the camera does not pick up motion)

Can you suggest a method of doing this please?

Thanks!

Sorted:

I used the http request node. PIR's send a trigger to the http request which triggers the BI cam record and the deepstack picks it up :) GET http://192.168.1.249:81/admin?camera=Backyard&trigger&user=admin&pw=xxxxxxx
