Attach IP Cam snapshot to email on trigger

Hi RTS,

how can I create a snapshot (of a vera imported CAM ID 190) to an email on a triggered event?

I see:
Messages can use Templates to access just about any variable from any device in Vera. No need for luup code … but the syntax can be detailed.
You can also enhance your messages with the following:

{Picture(DeviceID)} Send a snapshot of the camera identified by DeviceID and associate it with the alert.
You can send multiple pictures.
{url:Destination;Description}
{To=XXX@YYY.com} you can override the default to.
{From=XXX@YYY.com} you can override the default from.
{Subject=Your Subject For This Message} you can override the default Email Subject.

But where can I “add” templates?

To the message string itself … Look at the “Notification Configuration” tab on the Vera Alerts Plugin.
This allows you to override the default notification message for your notifications.
You can add the {Picture(xxx)} to the modified message string for your motion Notification.

very cool, learned something new, did not know it was that easy, thanks

did not know could send pictures in email, “{Picture(10)} test” worked like a charm

It now works. Thank you!
