Try this

• Action: android.intent.action.MAIN

• ActivityPackage: com.android.camera

• ActivityClass: com.android.camera.Camera

This works for me

I really appreciate the help, but I don’t know what’s going on. I even saw in the video you mentioned that it worked.
I am studying.

Try this one

• Action: android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE

It opens the camera but you won’t be able to get a result after activity as mentioned above. Is there a specific reason that you want to use activity starter instead of camera component?

[Anu10 (Anu)]

@dora_paz

The problem is that after activity is not working @Anu. Not getting any output, get result is an empty string

Thanks @dora_paz I was not knowing about this

I just checked it returns empty string.
