This repository contains the new securitas direct API that can be integrated in Home Assistant
In Apple Home through HomeKit Bridge
What HomeKit Bridge makes of each kind of entity this integration creates, read from its source code. A device only gets the ones that apply to it.
| Entity | Shows up as | Note |
|---|---|---|
lock | Lock | Needs its own HomeKit Bridge in accessory mode |
camera | Camera | Needs its own HomeKit Bridge in accessory mode |
alarm_control_panel | Security system | |
binary_sensor | Sensor (motion, contact, leak, smoke…) | |
sensor | Sensor (temperature, humidity, air quality…) | |
button | Button (as a switch) |
2 reports below say how a device from this integration behaves in the Home app.
What people report
Verisure/Securitas Direct alarms and cameras work through the cloud. In Apple Home via HomeKit Bridge, the alarm panel works but custom bypass states are not understood.

| Securitas QP perimetral camera | Works Cloud | QP camera support and PIRCAM snapshot fixSaved copySummary - QP camera support (#401, #398): Adds `QP` perimetral camera type with `deviceType 107` to `CAMERA_DEVICE_TYPES` and `IMAGE_DEVICE_TYPE_MAP`, enabling discovery and image capture for modern outdoor perimeter cameras. - PIRCAM snapshot fix (#402): Some cameras (e.g. PIRCAMs) always return `idSignal: null` from `xSGetThumbnail`. The capture polling loop waited for `idSignal` to change, which never happened (`None != None` is `False`). Now falls back to comparing the raw base64 image content against the baseline when `idSignal` is unavailable.

I've configured in YAML. [code] > I have enabled HomeKit integration in my Home Assistant and it works perfectly, even the Alarm. That is why I was confused. I can confirm, it works well in HomeKit.
