In todays video we are looking at 3 different methods of adding Eufy Cameras into Home Assistant. Specifically we are looking at RTSP, The Eufy MQTT Bridge Addon and the Eufy Security integration. Using these methods can allow you to access information from your Eufy cameras and doorbells. You can then use this in your automations.

Some of these methods are a work in progress but they are being actively developed.

THINGS IM NOT COVERING IN THIS VIDEO
- MQTT Broker Setup
- WebRTC Camera Setup
- Setup of Eufy Security

This video is aimed at being more of an incite into the available options that a full blown tutorial.
If you want an in depth tutorial for a set method then let me know!
