Credentials for snapshot via http requires wb_password, but stream requires wb_api

[mgrimace]

Describe the bug

When my still image url is http, for example http://IP:5000/img/wyze-doorbell.jpg and the stream is RTSP, for example rtsp://IP:8554/wyze-doorbell then I can enter credentials for one or the other, but not both in something like Home Assistant. Specifically, the stream credentials are user: wb, and password wb_api, while the snapshot/http password is web_auth user and password.

I have DWB as a container via docker compose and home assistant containerized as well, and access my cameras via the generic camera plugin. I cannot enter both my api credentials and my web auth credentials in this setup.

Environment (if applicable)

• Affected Camera(s): n/a
• Affected Camera Firmware: n/a
• Affected Bridge Version: v2.91
• Bridge type:
  • [ x ] Docker Compose/Docker Run

I still need to update the documentation, but you should be able to pass the API key as a query parameter eg:

http://localhost:5000/snapshot/<cam-name>.jpg?api=mywb_apikey

Worked, thanks! As it is, v2.91 is 100% working for me on original doorbell and v1 floodlight, with home assistant and also scrypted+homekit secure video. Thanks for all your work on this!

@mrlt8 i have tried this with http://homeassistant.local:5000/snapshot/<cam-name>.jpg?api=mywb_apikey
(mywb_api_key being the wyze API Key obtained from the developer portal).

In the browser i am redirected to the login page of the Web UI to enter the credentials.

Ok i see my mistake is that is should use the wyze bridge API key, not the authentification seems to go through, hoe ever i get now a "Preview not available" Screen http://homeassistant.local:5000/static/notavailable.svg

The Cam Model is: HL_PAN3

@jak83A You'll usually get redirected to the not available image if it fails or times out to take a snapshot.
Do you see anything in the logs for the bridge?

@mrlt8 i found the "problem": while wyze sdk shows camera names with whitelists with underscores: "my home cam 1" -> "my_home_cam_1", the required format in the snapshot http call is "myhomecam1". Thank you for trying to help!
