How do I connect my Nest Camera to the Ambient Weather Network?
You can not directly upload your camera image from your Nest camera to AmbientWeather.net, but you can reference a static URL from your Nest account.
- Go to your Nest account and login using a web browser: https://home.nest.com/ from your computer. You cannot change your privacy settings from your phone or tablet.
- Select the camera that you want to share and click on Settings settings icon for Nest in the top right corner of your browser window. Note: If you don’t see the Settings icon, increase the size of your web browser window to reveal it.
- Tap Camera Sharing . You will need to scroll down the page a bit.
- You now have two options: Share with password or Share publicly. Choose Share publicly: This lets anyone with t he link view your camera’s stream. No password is needed. Tap Agree & Share
- SHARE THIS LINK will be provided by Nest. It looks something like this:
https://video.nest.com/live/W0vWkESnqZ
This is NOT the share link you will use with AmbientWeather.net. - Open a new browser window, and Copy and Paste this share link (do not use the example link above – your link will look different).
- Right click on the video and select Inspect Element
- Look for a line that looks like this
“background-image: url(https://nexusapi-us1.camera.home.nest.com/get_image?uuid=62e9db0…&width=540&public=iXXXXXXXX);
Note: Please remove any “amp” in the code as this will cause issues.
- Below is an example of how it will appear
- Copy only this part for AmbientWeather.net:
https://nexusapi-us1.camera.home.nest.com/get_image?uuid=62e9db0…&width=540&public=iXXXXXXXX - Here is an example image link (your image link will look different):
https://nexusapi-us1.camera.home.nest.com/get_image?uuid=c248c1e78c1a4fc0814b2582e23e26eb&width=540&public=W0vWkESnqZ
- Enter this into the URL option on AmbientWeather.net:
- Note: URL cameras are currently no support by the AmbientWeather.net time lapse feature
