How to detect camera permission in Niantic Studio

You could try something like the following, however it would need to check in tick since there’s no way to listen for the permission granted as far as I know.

async function onCameraPermissionGranted(onGranted) {
  if (!navigator.permissions) return;
  try {
    const status = await navigator.permissions.query({ name: 'camera' });
    if (status.state === 'granted') onGranted();
    status.onchange = () => {
      if (status.state === 'granted') onGranted();
    };
  } catch (err) {
    console.error('Could not query camera permission:', err);
  }
}

onCameraPermissionGranted(() => {
  console.log('Camera permission is granted – go ahead and use the camera!');
});
