RTSP (Beta Firmware) Wyze Cloud API

⚠

Important: Wyze cameras do not natively support RTSP. Local RTSP access requires flashing beta/unofficial firmware on compatible models. Not all Wyze cameras support RTSP firmware. The Wyze Cloud API is the recommended alternative for broader model support.

Supported Models

Wyze Cam v3 Wyze Cam v4 Wyze Cam OG Wyze Cam Floodlight

RTSP Firmware Compatibility

Model	RTSP Firmware	Cloud API	Notes
Wyze Cam v3	Beta	Yes	Community RTSP firmware available
Wyze Cam v4	Beta	Yes	Limited RTSP support, Cloud API recommended
Wyze Cam OG	No	Yes	Cloud-only model, no RTSP firmware available
Wyze Cam Floodlight	Beta	Yes	Based on v3 hardware, same RTSP firmware

Prerequisites

A compatible Wyze camera (see compatibility table above)
A Wyze account with the camera set up in the Wyze app
For RTSP: A microSD card (32GB, FAT32 formatted) for firmware flashing
For RTSP: The RTSP firmware file for your specific camera model
For Cloud API: Wyze API key and secret from the Wyze developer portal
Network access from AgenticEye server to the camera on the local network (RTSP) or internet (Cloud API)

Option A: RTSP Firmware Integration

Download the RTSP Firmware

Download the correct RTSP firmware for your Wyze camera model from the Wyze support site or community repositories. The firmware file is typically named demo.bin.

        Firmware Files
        # Wyze Cam v3 RTSP firmware
# Download from: https://support.wyze.com/hc/en-us/articles/360026245231
# Filename: demo_v3_rtsp.bin → rename to demo.bin

# Wyze Cam Floodlight (uses v3 firmware base)
# Same firmware as Wyze Cam v3
      

⚠

Caution: Flashing RTSP firmware is a beta/unofficial process for some models. It may void your warranty, and you will lose access to some Wyze cloud features. You can revert to the stock firmware at any time by following the same flashing process with the official firmware.

Flash the RTSP Firmware

Follow these steps carefully to flash the firmware onto your Wyze camera.

        Flashing Steps
        # Step-by-step firmware flash process:

Format a microSD card as FAT32
Copy "demo.bin" to the root of the microSD card
Power off the Wyze camera (unplug it)
Insert the microSD card into the camera
Press and hold the setup button on the camera
While holding the button, plug in the camera
Continue holding for 3-6 seconds until the LED
   flashes blue/yellow
Release the button and wait 3-4 minutes
The camera will reboot with RTSP firmware
The LED will turn solid blue when ready
      

Enable RTSP in Camera Settings

After flashing, open the Wyze app. The camera will appear with RTSP firmware. Navigate to the camera's Advanced Settings and toggle on RTSP. The app will display the RTSP URL.

        RTSP URL Format
        # Wyze RTSP stream URL
rtsp://[camera-ip]/live

# Example
rtsp://192.168.1.75/live

# Note: No authentication by default on Wyze RTSP
# The stream is accessible to anyone on the local network
      

Test and Configure in AgenticEye

Verify the stream is accessible, then add it to your AgenticEye configuration.

        Shell
        # Test the RTSP stream
ffplay rtsp://192.168.1.75/live

# Check stream details
ffprobe -v quiet -print_format json -show_streams \
  rtsp://192.168.1.75/live
      

        agenticeye.yaml
        cameras:
  - name: "Garage - Wyze Cam v3"
    brand: wyze
    model: "Cam v3"
    protocol: rtsp
    url: "rtsp://192.168.1.75/live"
    fps: 15
    resolution: 1920x1080
    # Wyze RTSP can be unstable — enable reconnection
    reconnect:
      enabled: true
      interval: 30
      max_retries: -1               # Unlimited retries
    agents:
      - type: security
        sensitivity: medium
      

Option B: Wyze Cloud API Integration

The Wyze Cloud API is the recommended integration method, especially for models that do not support RTSP firmware (like the Wyze Cam OG). It provides reliable access without firmware modification.

Obtain Wyze API Credentials

Generate an API key and secret from your Wyze account. These are used to authenticate with the Wyze cloud platform.

        API Setup
        # Visit the Wyze developer portal:
# https://developer-api-console.wyze.com/

# Generate API credentials:
# - API Key: your_api_key_here
# - API Secret: your_api_secret_here

# Note: Keep these credentials secure.
# Rotate them periodically for security.
      

Authenticate and List Devices

Use the API to authenticate and retrieve your camera list.

        Shell
        # Authenticate with Wyze API
curl -X POST https://api.wyzecam.com/app/user/login \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "email": "your-wyze-email",
    "password": "your-wyze-password",
    "key_id": "your_api_key",
    "api_key": "your_api_secret"
  }'

# List all cameras
curl -X GET https://api.wyzecam.com/app/v2/home_page/get_object_list \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ${ACCESS_TOKEN}" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  | jq '.data.device_list[] | select(.product_type == "Camera")
        | {name: .nickname, mac: .mac, model: .product_model}'
      

Configure Cloud API in AgenticEye

        agenticeye.yaml — Cloud Mode
        # Wyze Cloud API configuration
wyze_cloud:
  email: "your-wyze-email"
  password: "${WYZE_PASSWORD}"
  api_key: "${WYZE_API_KEY}"
  api_secret: "${WYZE_API_SECRET}"
  auto_discover: true
  # Cloud API polling interval (seconds)
  poll_interval: 10
  # Enable event-based triggers
  events:
    motion: true
    sound: true
    person_detection: true
  default_agents:
    - type: security
      sensitivity: medium

Troubleshooting

RTSP firmware not available for my model

Not all Wyze cameras support RTSP firmware. The Wyze Cam OG and some newer models are cloud-only and cannot run RTSP firmware. Use the Wyze Cloud API integration for these models instead.

RTSP stream freezes or drops frequently

Wyze RTSP firmware is beta software and stream stability is a known issue. Enable automatic reconnection in AgenticEye with a 30-second retry interval. Ensure the camera has a strong Wi-Fi signal (at least -60 dBm). Consider using 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi for better range. Reducing the stream resolution in the Wyze app may also help.

Camera not detected after firmware flash

Verify the microSD card is formatted as FAT32 (not exFAT). Ensure the firmware file is named exactly demo.bin and placed in the root directory of the card. Try the flashing process again, holding the setup button for the full 6 seconds before plugging in.

Cloud API rate limiting

The Wyze API enforces rate limits. If you receive HTTP 429 errors, increase the poll_interval in your AgenticEye configuration. For deployments with many cameras, batch your API calls and use event-based triggers instead of continuous polling.

Lost Wyze cloud features after RTSP flash

Flashing RTSP firmware disables some cloud features like person detection, cloud recordings, and AI-powered notifications from the Wyze app. AgenticEye replaces these features with its own AI agents. To restore Wyze cloud features, flash the official firmware from the Wyze website.
