ST CLI for Ring Cam

Devices & Integrations
1

I have a Ring Cam and I have a question regarding Ring device control from ST CLI.

  1. Inaccurate motionSensor status
    When I checked from Ring app, the cam Motion Detection is “On”. However, when I tried
    smartthings devices:component-status “DEVICE_ID”, it is still “inactive”.

imageCapture image
imageCapture encrypted
imageCapture captureTime
healthCheck checkInterval 60 s
healthCheck healthStatus
healthCheck DeviceWatch-Enroll
healthCheck DeviceWatch-DeviceStatus “online”
motionSensor motion “inactive”

  1. Get history
    Can we get motion detection history from CLI?

ST app shows motion detection history as follow. Can we get this information from CLI?

  1. Turn on/off Motion Detection from CLI
    Can we switch on/off motion Detection from CLI?

Could be a matter of timing.

Yes.

No. These are the commands available for a Ring camera:

bep@debian12:~$ smartthings devices:commands xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxx
