Proper steps for working on Theta API v2.1

On step 5, when you run takePicture(), does it return the URL of the last image taken?

doesn’t look like it. This is the response that I get.

{ “name”: “camera.takePicture”,
“state”: “inProgress”,
“id”: “1”,
“progress”: { “completion”: 0 }}

I remember talking to another developer about this problem. I think the API documentation may be slightly out of date.

Automatic Face blur plugin

thank you for your reply. yes the blur plugin api doesn’t return the filename but contrary to the base api /osc/commands/execute it doesn’t return the id either e.g. { "id": "133", "name": "camera.takePicture", "progress":{ "completion": 0 }, "state": "inProgress" } without the id I cannot query the api to find out when the picture is ready and get the file URL like you would normally do using the base osc api e.g. POST /osc/commands/status request { "id" : "133" } response { …

Based on your comment and the comment from @strangerism , I’m assuming that takePicture() no longer returns the fileUri and that Ricoh needs to update their API documentation.
