I setup Frigate and connected 2 cameras (reolink doorbell and hikvision) both cameras are working fine, both have a live feed in frigate tab and the clips are being saved in my external NAS.

to add the cameras to any dashboard I used frigate-hass-card, but the card only recognising reolink doorbell since I installed reolink add-on before frigate. it's not recognising any entities from frigate, frigate didn't export/create cameras entities. how can I fix it?

Just to be clear, you've added the Frigate integration to home assistant? The add-on and integration are 2 separate pieces.

Oh I wasn't aware it's 2 different things.
So I added Frigate (Full access) add-on
this part is working good. I can see both cameras feed if I go to Frigate menu on the left.
is this the integration part?

Nope, that's the add-on UI

Thanks. I tried that and seems the integration is not working. im getting Failed to connect
the URL is http://ccab4aaf-frigate:5000
Tried with IP with same result.

I ssh to the HA to check that docker expose the port looks like it does
docker ps --all
56ace7b88463 ghcr.io/blakeblackshear/frigate:0.14.1 "/init" 10 hours ago Up 10 hours (healthy) 5000/tcp, 8554/tcp, 0.0.0.0:8555->8555/tcp, 0.0.0.0:8555->8555/udp, :::8555->8555/tcp, :::8555->8555/udp addon_ccab4aaf_frigate-fa

Looks like its valid. docker logs I dont see something there
What am I missing?

that's the wrong hostname to use if you have the full access addon installed

ummm from inside HA

➜ ha curl http://localhost:5000
curl: (7) Failed to connect to localhost port 5000 after 0 ms: Could not connect to server

But from inside frigate docker I do get a web result...

#

What is the right address?

#

maybe something in the add-on configuration?

I got it to work
Thanks for the help.
in the configuration I open port 5000 restart the add-on
and used homeassistant.local:5000
