MICROSOFT DYNAMICS 365: [TIPS] Issue &solution: Use Camera Capture Button in Power Apps Canvas App

[TIPS] Use Camera Capture Button in Power Apps Canvas App

Issue:

I created a Canvas App using a button to capture the picture.

In "On Select" property of the button, I used below script:

Collect(
    colCameraImages, 
    {
        Name: Text(Now(),"yyyy-mm-dd-hh-mm-ss.jpg"),
        Value: Camera.Photo
    }
);

But when I click the button, the camera captured a blank screen.

Later, I found only after I have clicked the screen once, then the button can be working.

Solution:

Step 1: Change script "Value: Camera.Photo" to "Value: Camera.Stream".

Collect(
    colCameraImages, 
    {
        Name: Text(Now(),"yyyy-mm-dd-hh-mm-ss.jpg"),
        Value: Camera.Stream
    }
);

Step 2: Change "Stream Rate" property of camera from 0 to 100.

Done.
