Every Hikvision alert now arrives instantly in Telegram
Hikvision is one of the world's most popular CCTV brands. Their NVRs, DVRs, and IP cameras can send email alerts for various events — but the built-in email notification system is often unreliable and easy to miss.
With TelegramEmailBot, you simply point your Hikvision email alerts to your TelegramEmailBot address. Every alert arrives as a Telegram message within seconds.

Common Questions
Hikvision Alerts to Telegram — FAQ
Does this work with iVMS-4200 and HikConnect setups?
Yes. Any Hikvision device that can send SMTP email alerts works — DS-2CD bullets, DS-2DE PTZs, NVRs, and HiLook variants. Configure email under Network → Advanced → Email.
Which Hikvision events can be forwarded?
Motion detection, line crossing, intrusion, region entrance/exit, face detection, tampering, video loss, hard-drive errors, and recording exceptions.
Do I need to open ports or punch through NAT?
No. Hikvision cameras send outbound SMTP to our servers. No port forwarding, no VPN, no DDNS required.
Can I filter out false-positive triggers?
Yes. Use Hikvision's smart detection zones and sensitivity sliders to reduce noise before alerts reach Telegram.
