#Turn 1 camera on/off with hass-aarlo?

Hello,

I have the integration set up and working and can view and trigger the siren on the cameras. I can't seem to figure out how to toggle an individual camera on/off. I do this with the interior cameras when we are home. I found this (https://github.com/twrecked/hass-aarlo/issues/898) and it looks like I should be able to but I'm not understanding how. I'm in the process of testing HA out vs my SmartThings deployment that I've had for years so most devices are duplicated and wasn't sure if that conflicts some how? The SmartThings version of the device has a switch I can easily toggle.

Thanks!

So I found I guess what I think is more of a workaround than a real fix. I can create a script and use the "turn off the camera" action on the camera as a target and it works. But it really seems like there is a better way.

Does anyone know if there's a way to put that script process directly into an automation instead of needing the extra step? I still haven't been able to find a better answer.
