protect_get_camera
Read-only
Get detailed information for a specific UniFi Protect camera by its ID. Returns camera name, MAC address, state, and settings.
Instructions
Get details for a specific camera by ID. The Protect Integration API returns the SAME field set as protect_list_cameras entries (id, mac, name, modelKey, state, activePatrolSlot, hasPackageCamera, hdrType, isMicEnabled, micVolume, videoMode, featureFlags, lcdMessage, ledSettings, osdSettings, smartDetectSettings) — there is no extended/by-id-only payload (confirmed live on 7.1.83). Recording state, motion events, zones, and channel/RTSP config are NOT exposed by this API surface.
