For anyone, like me, who is looking for a working a camera and screenshot per mail solution.
Hardware:
Reolink Video Doorbell Wifi
SD card (in the camera unit - this might not be necessary)
Domoticz on Raspberry 4
Setup Hardware
Setup you doorbell/camera on local network (preferably on static ip adress) for example: 192.168.100.200
Setup user/admin account on the Reolink and a password (example: User: admin, PW: Welkom2020!)
Enable HTTPS > in the app: Doorbell > Device Info > Network Info > Advanced
Check in the Reolink app;
- IP adress (example: 192.168.100.200)
- the UID of the camera (you can find it at: Doorbell > Device Info) (example:X1234XY455677XYXY91)
Setup in Domoticz:
- Email notifications: Link to wiki
- Camera Setup: Link to wiki
For camera settings fill in the:
Name: (anything you fancy)
IP adresss: your camera IP
The Port: your camera port (standard should be 443 when on HTTPS)
Username: the camera username
Password: the password to the camera username
Image URL: [this consists of:] HTTPS://< IP of your camera > / cgi-bin/api.cgi?cmd=Snap&channel=0&rs= <UID of your Camera > & <user=YourUsername&password=YourPassword >
For Example it should look something like this:
https://192.168.100.200/cgi-bin/api.cgi ... Welkom2020!
Snapshot or not?
Copy this line into a browser and you should see a snapshot. If not, there is something wrong and it must be fixed first as the setup may not work.
You may also test the setup using the "test' option in Domoticz, but this did not work for me. The screenshot appeared when saving though.
Send notification / email action:
When all is fine and a snapshot is shown;
- link the setup to the -newly created < see above > - button: Link to wiki
- Setup notifications on the button to email you with the snapshot of the camera (use the notifications option on the button) [
Check the WIKI at: wiki.domoticz.com/Managing_Devices#Edit_Notifications%7C when unsure.
PS: You can now "push" the [doorbell] button to trigger it and it should send a snapshot. At my place it also rings the chimes

PS: Here I think the WIKI is not completely correct; you should setup a -new- button to link the camera to (see: Send notification / email action: below). Do this first.
