Hi,  
What is the best way to add real time video to a dashboard block as a blob attribute etc ?  
Can I just use a wifi security camera stream or is it more complicated than that ?

Hello @SEAN_O_CONNELL,

Losant does not support video currently.

You can, however, do something similar to this [blog post](https://www.losant.com/blog/analyzing-iot-image-data-using-losant-and-the-google-vision-api) where images are captured, processed, and sent to Losant via Blob attributes.

Then, leveraging the [Image Dashboard Block](https://docs.losant.com/dashboards/image/) to display a picture, you can display the image on a dashboard.

Thank you,  
Heath
