`width`, `height`, and `fps` are only used for the `detect` role. Other streams are passed through, so there is no need to specify the resolution.

sidebar_label: Home Assistant
---
The best way to integrate with Home Assistant is to use the [official integration](https://github.com/blakeblackshear/frigate-hass-integration). When configuring the integration, you will be asked for the `Host` of your frigate instance. This value should be the url you use to access Frigate in the browser and will look like `http://<host>:5000/`. If you are using HassOS with the addon, the host should be `http://ccab4aaf-frigate:5000` (or `http://ccab4aaf-frigate-beta:5000` if your are using the beta version of the addon). Home Assistant needs access to port 5000 (api) and 1935 (rtmp) for all features. The integration will setup the following entities within Home Assistant:
The best way to integrate with Home Assistant is to use the [official integration](https://github.com/blakeblackshear/frigate-hass-integration).
## Sensors:
## Installation
- Stats to monitor frigate performance
- Object counts for all zones and cameras
Available via HACS as a [custom repository](https://hacs.xyz/docs/faq/custom_repositories). To install:
## Cameras:
- Add the custom repository:
- Cameras for image of the last detected object for each camera
- Camera entities with stream support (requires RTMP)
```
Home Assistant > HACS > Integrations > [...] > Custom Repositories
```
## Media Browser:
| Key | Value |
| -------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
| Repository URL | https://github.com/blakeblackshear/frigate-hass-integration |
| Category | Integration |
- Use [HACS](https://hacs.xyz/) to install the integration:
```
Home Assistant > HACS > Integrations > "Explore & Add Integrations" > Frigate
```
- Restart Home Assistant.
- Then add/configure the integration:
```
Home Assistant > Configuration > Integrations > Add Integration > Frigate
```
Note: You will also need
[media_source](https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/media_source/) enabled
in your Home Assistant configuration for the Media Browser to appear.
## Configuration
When configuring the integration, you will be asked for the following parameters:
| Variable | Description |
| -------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| URL | The `URL` of your frigate instance, the URL you use to access Frigate in the browser. This may look like `http://<host>:5000/`. If you are using HassOS with the addon, the URL should be `http://ccab4aaf-frigate:5000` (or `http://ccab4aaf-frigate-beta:5000` if your are using the beta version of the addon). Live streams required port 1935, see [RTMP streams](#streams) |

## Options
```
Home Assistant > Configuration > Integrations > Frigate > Options
```
| Option | Description |
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| RTMP URL Template | A [jinja2](https://jinja.palletsprojects.com/) template that is used to override the standard RTMP stream URL (e.g. for use with reverse proxies). This option is only shown to users who have [advanced mode](https://www.home-assistant.io/blog/2019/07/17/release-96/#advanced-mode) enabled. See [RTMP streams](#streams) below. |
## Entities Provided
| Platform | Description |
| --------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `camera` | Live camera stream (requires RTMP), camera for image of the last detected object. |
| `sensor` | States to monitor Frigate performance, object counts for all zones and cameras. |
| `switch` | Switch entities to toggle detection, clips and snapshots. |
| `binary_sensor` | A "motion" binary sensor entity per camera/zone/object. |
## Media Browser Support
The integration provides:
- Rich UI with thumbnails for browsing event clips
- Rich UI for browsing 24/7 recordings by month, day, camera, time
## API:
This is accessible via "Media Browser" on the left menu panel in Home Assistant.
<a name="api"></a>
## API
- Notification API with public facing endpoints for images in notifications
### Notifications
Frigate publishes event information in the form of a change feed via MQTT. This allows lots of customization for notifications to meet your needs. Event changes are published with `before` and `after` information as shown [here](#frigateevents).
Note that some people may not want to expose frigate to the web, so you can leverage the HA API that frigate custom_integration ties into (which is exposed to the web, and thus can be used for mobile notifications etc):

## RTMP stream
In order for the live streams to function they need to be accessible on the RTMP
port (default: `1935`) at `<frigatehost>:1935`. Home Assistant will directly
connect to that streaming port when the live camera is viewed.
#### RTMP URL Template
For advanced usecases, this behavior can be changed with the [RTMP URL
template](#options) option. When set, this string will override the default stream
address that is derived from the default behavior described above. This option supports
[jinja2 templates](https://jinja.palletsprojects.com/) and has the `camera` dict
variables from [Frigate API](https://blakeblackshear.github.io/frigate/usage/api#apiconfig)
available for the template. Note that no Home Assistant state is available to the
template, only the camera dict from Frigate.
This is potentially useful when Frigate is behind a reverse proxy, and/or when
the default stream port is otherwise not accessible to Home Assistant (e.g.
firewall rules).
###### RTMP URL Template Examples
Use a different port number:
```
rtmp://<frigate_host>:2000/live/front_door
```
Use the camera name in the stream URL:
```
rtmp://<frigate_host>:2000/live/{{ name }}
```
Use the camera name in the stream URL, converting it to lowercase first:
```
rtmp://<frigate_host>:2000/live/{{ name|lower }}
```
## Multiple Instance Support
The Frigate integration seamlessly supports the use of multiple Frigate servers.
### Requirements for Multiple Instances
In order for multiple Frigate instances to function correctly, the
`topic_prefix` and `client_id` parameters must be set differently per server.
See [MQTT
configuration](https://blakeblackshear.github.io/frigate/configuration/index#mqtt)
for how to set these.
#### API URLs
When multiple Frigate instances are configured, [API](#api) URLs should include an
identifier to tell Home Assistant which Frigate instance to refer to. The
identifier used is the MQTT `client_id` paremeter included in the configuration,
and is used like so:
```
https://HA_URL/api/frigate/<client-id>/notifications/<event-id>/thumbnail.jpg
```
```
https://HA_URL/api/frigate/<client-id>/clips/front_door-1624599978.427826-976jaa.mp4
```
#### Default Treatment
When a single Frigate instance is configured, the `client-id` parameter need not
be specified in URLs/identifiers -- that single instance is assumed. When
multiple Frigate instances are configured, the user **must** explicitly specify
which server they are referring to.
## FAQ
### If I am detecting multiple objects, how do I assign the correct `binary_sensor` to the camera in HomeKit?
The [HomeKit integration](https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/homekit/) randomly links one of the binary sensors (motion sensor entities) grouped with the camera device in Home Assistant. You can specify a `linked_motion_sensor` in the Home Assistant [HomeKit configuration](https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/homekit/#linked_motion_sensor) for each camera.
