4 months ago At this stage it is not possible to communicate with a uninitialized camera since the HTTP(S) port of a unintialized camera is in most cases closed so the API that the Reolink integration uses will not be available. See this part of the documentation: https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/reolink/#1-initializing-and-configuring-camera-credentials
