| Option | Default | Description |
| ------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `camera_name` | Autodetected from `camera_entity` if that is specified. | The Frigate camera name to use when communicating with the Frigate server, e.g. for viewing clips/snapshots or the JSMPEG live view. |
| `client_id` | `frigate` | The Frigate client id to use. If this Home Assistant server has multiple Frigate server backends configured, this selects which server should be used. It should be set to the MQTT client id configured for this server, see [Frigate Integration Multiple Instance Support](https://docs.frigate.video/integrations/home-assistant//#multiple-instance-support). |
| `labels` | | A list of Frigate labels used in the default media filter for events (clips & snapshots), e.g. [`person`, `car`]. |
| `url` | | The URL of the frigate server. If set, this value will be (exclusively) used for a `Camera UI` menu button. All other communication with Frigate goes via Home Assistant. |
| `zones` | | A list of Frigates zones used in the default media filter for events (clips & snapshots), e.g. [`front_door`, `front_steps`]. |
