I’ve been thinking about getting into home automation and slowly adding controls/switches down the road. My main concern is if can restrict users and/or family members access to only see certain devices. I’m not sure if my terminology is correct but by devices I mean light switches, outlets, HVAC…etc… And by restrict access I mean once they log in either via the web or mobile app, they would only see the devices that I set them up to see. Example… The wife and I would only need access to the HVAC remotely. Or setup the brother-and-law to only have access to the front door so he can let himself in and not monitor the rest of the house remotely when we’re home (or jokingly playing with the lights). I realize that actions are logged so we know who did what (I think we would be able to find that out) but being able to set up permissions like that would simply make things easier IMO.
There are no device-level permissions that can be setup in Vera. It’d be nice if there was the ability to do this, as well as allow permissions for the cameras on a per-user basis, as it’d be nice to have the ability for family to get in if needed, but not be able to view my indoor cameras.
