Hi @mick88,

Does your project live on github? I’d like to take a look at the integration. Could you point me to your source code?

Haven’t really worked with cordova before, but I will see what I can do.

Thanks

In the meantime - could you verify that no error was emitted via the initError event emitter?

Thanks!

Hi @mick88,
were you able to check the initError event emitter for messages?
Thanks

[mick88]

No, sorry, I don't know how to. I used a cordova camera plugin instead. I think camera permission isnt allowed because cordova web content isnt served over https.

[basst314]

Okay, yeah at least common browsers require an https connection in order to access sensitive devices such as the camera. Might be the same in cordova if content is only served over http.

Is it possible to serve this content over https as well? Could you try if that solves your problem?

I might also be going to test this library with a cordova app if I have time to build one. ;)
Leaving this ticket open for now.

Hi @monikagupta78,

can you share your project and/or project-code?

Things to check:

• Do you serve your content over https?
• Did you check whether there are any errors in the initError event emitter after initialization?
• Did you allow camera access?
• Does your browser support the necessary APIs? (Validate by visiting the demo page); if it shows the webcam, you're good.

Thanks
