startCapture
An intent schema that starts a capture or opens the camera in a specified mode with a timer setting.
Declaration
var startCapture: some AppSchemaIntent { get }Discussion
To make your app’s actions available to Apple Intelligence, conform your AppIntent to a schema that describes your action to the system. If your app’s functionality aligns with the camera domain and one of your app’s actions matches the startCapture schema, you can generate the properties and protocol conformance the schema requires for your intent implementation with the @AppIntent( .camera.startCapture) Swift macro. To make your app work with Siri, see Apple Intelligence and Siri AI.
The following example shows an intent that conforms to the startCapture schema:
@AppIntent(schema: .camera.startCapture)
struct StartCameraCaptureIntent {
var captureMode: <#CaptureMode#>
var device: <#CaptureDevice#>?
var timerDuration: <#CaptureDuration#>?
func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult {
<#code#>
}
}The schema supports the following system experiences:
Siri
Shortcuts
