> Page 1908 "Camera" in System Application (System.Device). 7 public procedures. Present since at least BC23, still in BC30.

System Application · System.Device · BC23-30 · [source at ea08af5e](https://github.com/microsoft/BCApps/blob/ea08af5ef2d6a9b5c5af4a029288abbe2c883220/src/System%20Application/App/Camera%20and%20Media%20Interaction/src/Camera.Page.al) · facts from BC29

## Properties

| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Caption | Camera |
| Extensible | true |
| PageType | Card |

## Procedures

- `IsAvailable(): Boolean`: Checks whether the camera on the client device is available.
- `SetAllowEdit(AllowEdit: Boolean)`: Indicates whether simple editing is allowed before the picture is stored.
- `SetEncodingType(EncodingType: Enum "Image Encoding")`: Sets the returned image file's encoding. The default is .
- `SetQuality(Quality: Integer)`: Sets the quality of the saved image, expressed as a number between 0 and 100, where 100 is the highest available resolution. The default is 50.
- `GetPicture(var TempBlob: Codeunit "Temp Blob")`: Gets the picture that was taken when the page was opened. An error is displayed if the function is called without opening the page first.
- `HasPicture(): Boolean`: Checks if the picture is available and can be obtained with a method.
- `GetPicture(InStream: InStream)`: Gets the picture that was taken when the page was opened. An error is displayed if the function is called without opening the page first.

## Triggers

OnOpenPage, CameraProvider::PictureAvailable

## Calls

From the extracted call graph of BC29 (graphify-al on the snapshot checkout): calls whose target is known from a declared type or an `Object::"Name"` argument. Interface dispatch and calls through events are not counted, so the list is not complete.

- [Codeunit 1908 "Camera Page Impl."](../codeunit/1908.md) (8 calls: `CameraProvider::PictureAvailable → CameraInteractionOnPictureAvailable`, `GetPicture → GetPicture`, `HasPicture → HasPicture`, …)

## Across versions

- Present in: BC23-30
- Changed (declaration) in: none

Source: AL metadata extracted from the code (names, ids, signatures, properties); no code bodies (D10).

## Ask your agent

Procedure bodies are not stored here (D10). The call sections above are our own, per object, from the BC29 call graph. For a procedure body or the calls of one procedure, ask bc-code-atlas (external, by Stefan Maron, MIT; default corpus w1-28), which the bc-observatory plugin connects: `bcatlas_resolve_node(object_type: "page", object_name: "Camera")`, then `bcatlas_get_procedure_body` or `bcatlas_get_neighbors` on the returned id.
