Hello,
In my Aqara system, with MS1 Gen 2 hub and various sensors, I add the G100 chamber. As a result, I want to subscribe to Home Guardian to receive notifications (sms, emails) every time the alarm system goes off. Is this possible for every event or just for chamber motion detection? Does it work if you detect the opening of the door equipped with sensors? Does the Aqara cloud record all my events? Thanks for the answers to my questions!
@liveraniroberto Hello! Let’s break down your questions about Home Guardian notifications and event recording:
1. SMS/Email Notifications for Events
You can receive SMS and email notifications for critical events when using Home Guardian. The system supports setting up emergency contacts to trigger alerts via these channels. This isn’t limited to just chamber motion detection—events from other sensors (like door/window openings, motion, or vibration) can also trigger notifications if they’re part of your security setup.
2. Door Sensor Triggering Alerts
Yes, door opening detection works! If you have a door sensor (e.g., Aqara Door and Window Sensor), it acts as the “first line of defense.” When triggered in HomeGuardian’s arming state, it will trigger an alarm and recording, which should also prompt notifications.
3. Aqara Cloud Event Recording
With the HomeGuardian Protect Plan, event cloud storage is included (e.g., 90 days of event storage as part of the free trial). However, “all events” depends on your setup—only events configured in your security automation (like sensor triggers) will be recorded and stored in the cloud.
If you need help setting up specific sensors or refining notification rules, feel free to share more details! 
Thank you! When I add (in a few days) the G100 camera and test its features, I will proceed to activate Home Guardian, hoping not to have problems with payment as someone in the forum said.
@liveraniroberto You’re very welcome! It’s great to hear you’re planning to add the G100 camera and activate Home Guardian soon—excited for you to experience the enhanced security features like the 90-day event cloud storage and integrated notifications that come with the HomeGuardian Protect Plan. If you do encounter any payment-related issues as mentioned, feel free to contact the Aqara Home App Customer Service Team (Profile> Help & Feedback > Customer Service) or scan the QR code:
