Hi,

In my plugin I have the FQID of a certain cameragroup.

When I try this line of simple code:

Item item = Configuration.Instance.GetItem(FQID);

from plugin in MC, this works and I get the item (cameragroup).

From plugin in Event Server I get Null.

I think this is not normal or am I doing something wrong?

I’m using version 2021 R2 with latest hotfixes and SDK.

Kind regards

Milestone Development will start an investigation.

There is a difference in implementation here when you compare the Manage Client and the Event Server. The Event Server does not have the knowledge about camera groups in the VideoOS.Platform.Configuration class.

You might be able to work around this shortcoming by using VideoOS.Platform.ConfigurationItems.CameraGroup instead. https://doc.developer.milestonesys.com/html/index.html?base=miphelp/class_video_o_s_1_1_platform_1_1_configuration_items_1_1_camera_group.html&tree=tree_search.html?search=cameragroup
