1C new version has collaboration system and we can use web camera with video call. But how can we connect a usb web cam and take photo with coding?

Hello Eyup,

sorry, but i didn't quite understand your question. Do you want to take photos from 1C?

Yes sir. I want to use a web cam (with usb connection) then take a picture with 1C. Is it possible?

Hello Eyup,

as far as I know, the 1C platform does not have the ability to work with USB cameras.

The collaboration system can work with cameras, but only in video call mode.

If we want to use the camera directly from 1C, then we need to use additional software.
The scenario can be as follows: from 1C we call this software, a photo is taken there, this photo is saved to a specific folder, then from 1C we get access to this photo.

But: all of the above is true only for the desktop version of 1C. If we work with the mobile version of the 1C platform, then there are built-in methods for working with the device's camera.

Thank you so much sir, I got it.
