Must be accompanied by the `x-auth-scheme` header set to `api-token` (or `partner-api-token` for partner endpoints). - `Authorization` (header): instead of an API key, an OAuth access token (`Bearer `) with the `read` scope. - `x-auth-scheme` (header, string, default: `api-token`): Authentication scheme identifier. Use `api-token` or `partner-api-token` with the `x-auth-apikey` header, `api` or `partner-api` with `x-auth-apikey` plus a client certificate, `api-oauth-token` or `partner-api-oauth-token` with `x-auth-access-token`, and `federated-token` with `x-auth-ft`. A request with `Authorization: Bearer ` and no `x-auth-scheme` is treated as OAuth, and `federated-token` may also be sent as the `x-auth-scheme` and `x-auth-ft` query parameters. One of: `api-token`, `api`, `api-oauth-token`, `federated-token`, `partner-api-token`, `partner-api`, `partner-api-oauth-token`. - `x-auth-org` (header, string): Client organization UUID (22-character RUUID), for partner credentials only. With it the call runs in that client organization with the partner support authority's role. Without it a partner credential runs as the partner organization, which outside the partner endpoints is deprecated (responses carry `Deprecation` and `Sunset: Tue, 05 Jan 2027 00:00:00 GMT`). A malformed value returns 400 `INVALID_AUTH_ORG`; a client organization the partner cannot access returns 403 `PARTNER_CLIENT_ACCESS_DENIED`. ## Request body Content type: `application/json`. Request to retrieve the current state of a camera (deprecated). - `cameraUuid` (string | null): RUUID with optional appended facet information - `force` (boolean | null): Whether to force a refresh of the camera state ## Response 200 OK. Content type: `application/json` - `cameraState` (object): Current state information for a camera. - `error` (boolean | null) - `errorCode` (string | null): Stable, machine-readable code for the failure (one of the ApiErrorCode catalog) when error is true. Branch on this, not on errorMsg. - `errorMsg` (string | null) - `warningMsg` (string | null) ## Errors Also 400, 401, 403, 429, 500, 503 with the standard error body (`errorCode`, `errorMsg`): https://developer.rhombus.com/errors ## OpenAPI ````yaml openapi: 3.0.1 info: title: Rhombus API version: "1.0" servers: - description: Production Server url: https://api2.rhombussystems.com security: - ApiKeyAuth: [] paths: /api/camera/getCurrentState: post: deprecated: true description: Use /getFullCameraState instead operationId: getCurrentCameraState parameters: - description: "Authentication scheme identifier.
