Get Snapshot from Synology Surveillance Station

This flow can show, in your dashboard, a snapshot from Synology Surveillance Station. I tested it on DSM 5.2 with Surveillance Station 7.1.

Before the first use you must :

  • change the "HOST" (http://HOST:5000...) in nodes "Login", "URL", "URL 1/2"
  • change ACCOUNT and PASS in node "Login" (...&account=ACCOUNT&passwd=PASS...)

You could adapt this flow to Enable or Disable Camera on Surveillance Station.
