Is there a method to create a schemata/configuration/status report of my system ? I want to create a text file that allows me to manage my system. A report that is an overview. i aplogize for what may be dumb question.
Nothing dumb about that. Feel free to be open-minded.
There might be someone here that has a suggestion.
I’m having some difficulty understanding what the request is here. One thing that came to mind when I saw this was a Wishlist item asking for an easy way to see network information about all Wyze devices:
I don’t know what the ultimate goal is in this topic, though. This part especially puzzles me:
How would you use a text file to manage your system? I can imagine a use for a data table of some sort as a reference document (and some community members create and manually update spreadsheets with their devices’ network information), but any actual management that I’m aware of would have to be performed within the Wyze app itself (with the exception of things like managing IP address assignments on a router, say, so that each Wyze device essentially has a static IP address on one’s LAN—which is something else some community members have reported doing).
What detail can you provide about the kinds of data you’re trying to collect and what you expect to be able to do with it?

Two examples:
I do not remember which cameras have SD cards and how big the SD card is.
I do not remember how I set up the smart detection for each camera.
I would rather look at a text document than to navigate my way through a graphical interface. … to refresh my memory.

That would be nice if you could ping or query for a micro SD card. Maybe use telnet? Interesting.
I happen to be playing around with Wyze Docker Bridge last night. One of the API calls actually listed all my cameras and all the settings. It was a big text file. I think I saw something about the presence of an SD card in each camera.
Edit -
Double-checking, it doesn’t say anything about SD cards. He’s a sample entry:

That would/could be useful.
Not sure a typical user would want to go through extra effort. Maybe they can phone a friend.
Okay, that makes more sense. You want it more as a reference than as a tool that actually effects management. Thanks for the additional detail.
I’m not aware of any way to do that with the app itself, though it seems like it could or should be a Wishlist item, like maybe a request for a report generator or something. I could see utility for that, especially if Wyze is marketing themselves as a business security company, as they seemed to be doing in an announcement video last year.
Even if it doesn’t include µSD card data, that’s actually pretty cool. It makes me think of doing queries on Windows with WMIC, and I could imagine someone could use text processing and/or scripting tools to pull and tabulate only those entries of interest to the user. Thanks for sharing that!
