Download Doorbell event video from API

[jakehatinen]

Hi,

I would like to download event video from Nest doorbell (battery) events. I get push subscription messages and I can download the video preview, but how can I download the whole clip? I know that phone I can download it, but how about API?

Br,

Jake

Hi Jake,

Thanks for reaching out to the Community. I’d be glad to help you with your questions. Let’s check them out.

If you're enrolled in the Public Preview and you have 24/7 continuous video history with a Nest Aware Plus subscription and a compatible Nest Cam or Doorbell, you’ll be able to download custom-length clips from any part of your video history. You can trim an existing event video clip by simply picking a start time and selecting the clip length from a set of options.

If you’re not already enrolled in Public Preview, follow the steps here to sign up.

I hope that helps.

Best,

Lance

Hi,

thank you for replying. I have public preview and subscription. And I know how to do this from phone app. Question is about API, https://developers.google.com/nest/device-access/api/doorbell-battery

Documentation does not provide information about downloading event related videos, but since it can be downloaded from the phone app, it should be available for my archive server to download too.
