The easiest way to define profiles is to use the Frigate UI. Profiles can also be configured manually in your configuration file. The easiest way to define profiles is to use the Frigate UI. Profiles can also be configured manually in your configuration file.
### Defining Profiles ### Using the UI
To create and manage profiles from the UI, open **Settings**. From there you can:
1. **Create a profile** — Navigate to **Profiles**. Click the **Add Profile** button, enter a name (and optionally a profile ID).
2. **Configure overrides** — Navigate to a camera configuration section (e.g. Motion detection, Record, Notifications). In the top right, two buttons will appear - choose a camera and a profile from the profile selector to edit overrides for that camera and section. Only the fields you change will be stored as overrides — fields that require a restart are hidden since profiles are applied at runtime. You can click the **Remove Profile Override** button
3. **Activate a profile** — Navigate to **Profiles**, then choose a profile in the Active Profile dropdown to activate it. The active profile is also shown in the status bar at the bottom of the screen on desktop browsers.
4. **Delete a profile** — Navigate to **Profiles**, then click the trash icon for a profile. This removes the profile definition and all camera overrides associated with it.
### Defining Profiles in YAML
First, define your profiles at the top level of your Frigate config. Every profile name referenced by a camera must be defined here. First, define your profiles at the top level of your Frigate config. Every profile name referenced by a camera must be defined here.
