How to take a photo of person at the door from Nest Doorbell

[ams228]

I need to take a photo of a person who was at my door and attach it to an email or text. How would I do that with my Nest Doorbell camera?

In the Google home app: 

Note: You can only download video clips from detected events in the video history. You cannot download video clips from footage with no activity. The maximum clip length setting for your camera or doorbell will affect how long video clips can be.

Follow the steps below to create and download a video clip:

Open the Home app.

Select your camera.

Tap History near the bottom of the screen.

Scroll to an event in your camera's video history timeline. You can also tap Full history for a list of events.

Choose the event you want, then tap Event details.

Near the top of the screen, tap Download download nest app icon to save the video clip to your phone. From there, you can share the video clip via email or social media app.
