The Get Thumbnail Link API endpoint allows users to extract thumbnail links from cameras within their Command organization by inputting a camera ID as well as a Unix timestamp in seconds.

The returned thumbnail link pulls images stored in our cloud backend, not directly from the camera in real-time. The frequency of these thumbnails is directly related to camera's activity:

• Normal Operation: Cameras transmit a new thumbnail approximately every 60 seconds.

• Person Detected: If a person is detected, up to 6 additional thumbnails may be transmitted within that 60-second window.
• No Motion: If there is absolutely no motion in the scene, the camera may wait up to 5 minutes before transmitting a new thumbnail to conserve resources.

When calling this endpoint, the API response will return a link for the closest available thumbnail. However, due to the asynchronous nature of thumbnail transmission, there may be a variance of up to 5 minutes when no motion is detected.
