I saw the workflow action to launch the camera – but struggle to figure out how to reference the “camera result” in my app. Looking to simply display that taken image in an image element. Anyone tried this already?
But also getting this error even though I toggled it on in setting: Open camera workflow requires camera and microphone access permissions. Turn these permissions on in mobile settings or delete the workflow.
The toggles completely prevent any actions upon tap, everywhere with browser preview
So the image that is selected is referenced as “Result of Step N”, where Step N is the workflow that opened the camera. You can then save that photo to the database, display it as data in a group, set a state, etc.
Hi [@lukas.lau1],
I saw your post about using the native camera in Bubble and struggling to reference the camera result. I’m currently facing the same issue and was wondering — did you manage to solve it? If so, I’d really appreciate it if you could share how you handled the image capture and display.
Thanks in advance!
hey @ns.nadezda - I haven’t really worked on it since but what I had was this workaround: basically to create a data field on the user called “Photo Cache” with one field type image, then on the open camera > save file to current users photo cache" and then reference it that way afterwards. but that wasn’t really nice and fluid at all, because it also took some time after capturing to upload the photo file to the database.
I hope there is another way soon to save that photo locally somehow
