description: Ring is an Amazon home-security company (doorbells, cameras, alarm systems, and the Ring Protect subscription)
  that in 2026 launched the Ring Developer platform and Ring Appstore. Third-party developers can build video-powered apps
  against the Ring Partner API — a REST API served from api.amazonvision.com (Amazon Vision API / AVA) that follows the JSON:API
  format and is secured with OAuth 2.0 one-way account linking. The API exposes device discovery, device status/capabilities/location/configurations,
  event history, WebRTC/WHEP live video, media clip and image downloads, subscription queries, and a webhook event surface
  (motion, button press, device online/offline, subscription changes). Ring also publishes a remote Model Context Protocol
  (MCP) server backed by an Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Base so AI coding assistants can query the documentation while building
  integrations, and publishes a HackerOne bug-bounty via a /.well-known/security.txt.

    event history, stream live video over WebRTC/WHEP, download media clips and image snapshots, and query subscriptions.
    All endpoints follow the JSON:API format and require an OAuth 2.0 Bearer token obtained through one-way account linking;
