Frigate

Control Frigate over its real-time /ws API

Restart

AI-generated

Summary

Publishes a restart command to Frigate over its /ws API, causing Frigate to exit so Docker can restart the container. The optional payload is sent with the command; the node returns the operation, topic, payload, and a published: true flag after sending it.

Inputs

  • Payload (`restartPayload`) — Optional string sent as the payload with the restart command; defaults to an empty string.

Output shape

One output item per input item, each containing a JSON object.

The JSON includes operation, topic (restart), payload, and published. The node requires configured Frigate API credentials and opens a WebSocket connection to publish the command; it does not wait for a state confirmation.
