## Common questions

### Do I need a Wyze API key to run docker-wyze-bridge?

Yes. As of May 2024, you must supply your own Wyze API Key and API ID.

### Which ports are exposed in the basic Docker setup?

The quick-start command maps ports 8554, 8888, and 5050, with 5050 used for the web interface. The project warns against forwarding ports or enabling DMZ access unless you understand the risk.

### How can I prevent old snapshot files from accumulating?

Set SNAPSHOT_KEEP when saving snapshots with a custom format to delete older snapshots. Examples are 180 for 3 minutes, 72h for 3 days, and 21d for 3 weeks.

### Can a Wyze update cause stream sync problems?

Users have reported that a Wyze update caused major sync issues with Docker Bridge. The report involved RTSP firmware on V2 cameras.

### Do some cameras stop getting video over time?

A user reports that at least one camera stops getting video and a restart of the Docker Wyze Bridge fixes it. They were unsure whether changing camera IPs or the bridge caused it.

### What Windows prerequisite must be met before starting the bridge?

Install Docker Desktop first so the Wyze bridge has a container to start. Use the per-user install if you lack admin rights, or the all-users install from an admin prompt.
