Whilst the Frigate support in this card is the best among camera engines, the name incorrectly suggests that Frigate is a requirement. Instead, to broaden the appeal, change to more camera agnostic name. This does not suggest any change in priority, role or support for Frigate. This change is likely to be bug prone, due to the size of the rename -- the code contains 1500+ references to "Frigate" most of which make sense to rename, some which do not, all of which needed human assessment. - Closes #1298 BREAKING CHANGE: References to `frigate-card` in all kinds of configuration need to be updated to `advanced-camera-card`. An automated config upgrade should take care of the majority of usecases (click `Edit -> Upgrade -> Save`), though may not be perfect.

# URL Actions
|
|
|
|
It is possible to pass the Advanced Camera Card one or more
|
|
[actions](../configuration/actions/README.md) from the URL (e.g. select a particular
|
|
camera, open the live view in expanded mode, etc).
|
|
|
|
### When actions are executed
|
|
|
|
The Advanced Camera Card will execute these actions in the following circumstances:
|
|
|
|
- On initial card load.
|
|
- On 'tab' change in a dashboard.
|
|
- When a `navigate` [action](https://www.home-assistant.io/dashboards/actions/)
|
|
is called on the dashboard (e.g. a button click requests navigation).
|
|
- When the user uses the `back` / `forward` browser buttons whilst viewing a
|
|
dashboard.
|
|
|
|
## Instructions
|
|
|
|
To send an action to _all_ Advanced Camera Cards on a dashboard:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
[PATH_TO_YOUR_HA_DASHBOARD]?advanced-camera-card-action.[ACTION]=[VALUE]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To send an action to a specific named Advanced Camera Card:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
[PATH_TO_YOUR_HA_DASHBOARD]?advanced-camera-card-action.[CARD_ID].[ACTION]=[VALUE]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
?> For backwards compatibility, the card will also respond to `frigate-card-action` as a query-parameter with the same syntax.
|
|
|
|
| Parameter | Description |
|
|
| --------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `ACTION` | One of the supported Advanced Camera Card custom actions. See below. |
|
|
| `CARD_ID` | When specified only cards that have a [`card_id`](../configuration/README.md) parameter will act. |
|
|
| `VALUE` | An optional value to use with the `camera_select` and `live_substream_select` actions. |
|
|
|
|
?> Both `.` and `:` may be used as the delimiter. If you use `:` some
|
|
browsers may require it be escaped to `%3A`.
|
|
|
|
!> If a dashboard has multiple Advanced Camera Cards on it, even if they are on
|
|
different 'tabs' within that dashboard, they will all respond to the actions
|
|
unless the action is targeted with a `CARD_ID` as shown above.
|
|
|
|
## Supported Actions
|
|
|
|
Only a subset of all [actions](../configuration/actions/README.md) are supported in URL form.
