  • For now there is a synology security station app that can connects cams to homey and you can send snapshot images tru a telegram message if im not mistaken
  • The easiest way is if your camera has a snapshot URL that produces a JPG file. Then you can use this app:
    https://apps.athom.com/app/image.grabber
    Google for the brand and type of your camera to see if it has a snapshot URL. For example, all Foscam IP cameras are shown at https://www.ispyconnect.com/man.aspx?n=foscam

    If your camera does not support this, you can make screenshots if you add the camera to a Synology NAS with Surveillance Station, as @mruiter mentioned. The app can be found here: https://apps.athom.com/app/com.synology.surveillance
