Hello all…
I have a somewhat flaky ip cam…that needs to be restarted once in a while…
So i thought i create an automation that checks if cam is having status “unavailable” and restarts it via “smart” outlet.
BUT…for some reason, my automation doesnt see the status or doesnt care…
Can anyone take a look and let me know what part i am missing?!
