Use the following credentials to add a virtual Tapo camera to your Seam sandbox workspace. Your Connect Webview must include tapo in its accepted_providers list. Seam must also turn on Tapo for your sandbox workspace, or the Tapo login in the Connect Webview doesn’t work, along with the camera features you want to test (camera events, event media, or live video). To request them, contact Seam.

Sandbox Seam Bridge Connection

You don’t need to install Seam Bridge in a sandbox workspace. Continue past the Seam Bridge instructions. The Connect Webview prefills a sandbox pairing token, so submit it as is.

Tapo Camera Credentials

The Tapo account password is optional. Enter tapo-sandbox-account-password to test connecting with it, or any other value to see the Connect Webview reject it. The sandbox workspace then includes one virtual camera: a C200 (tapo_camera, online) with tapo_metadata.model set to C200.
The sandbox doesn’t simulate motion, so the virtual camera doesn’t generate camera.activated events. The sandbox camera also has no microSD recordings. Use a real camera in a non-sandbox workspace to test motion events, event recordings, and live video.
