Hi,
I have Dahua Access Controller (ASI6213S-PW) and I need to subscribe to its Face Recognition event from third party application in real time.
I don't need necessarilly the Face Recognition event, I just need to be notified which user got authenticated and by which method.

I found in their API docs endpoint for subscribing to the FaceRecognition: snapManager.cgi?action=attachFileProc&Flags[0]=Event&Events=[FaceRecognition] the request takes maybe 1 minute (sometimes timeouts) and does not return any content. And the endpoint for subscribing to the

There is also endpoint with eventManager.cgi, which does not work either.

I would like to avoid any http polling to Device cgi server, the ideal situation would be if the Dahua device could send a http request to my server with event after it happend.

I don't have available any documentation except for the DAHUA_HTTP_API_V3.26.
Also I found in Device setting "CGI actively registers" but have no idea what does it mean or what can I do with it. I put my server info there, but it seems to do nothing.
