Where does the imageCaptue.take() action stores the photo ? Is it stored on SmartThings cloud ? If YES then for how long and how can we access it ? If NO then do we have to provide 3rd party cloud storage upload mechanism in the device handler ?

It’s stored in the SmartThings cloud but isn’t supported anymore so I’m not sure you’ll get an answer… @unixbeast any info you could share?

I’ve been trying to get an answer to that for several weeks.

Documentation for Image Capture, carouselTile, and storeImage? Writing Device Types

I was able to figure out how to retrieve images, save them and display them using the carouselTile, but I haven't been able to find any information that mentions the following things: What's the difference between storeImage and storeImageInS3? Where are the images stored? Is there a way to see all the images that have been stored? Can you manually delete the stored images? Do the images automatically get deleted when the device/smartapp is removed? Can you use multiple carouselTiles that display different images? Can you prevent the storeImage command from displaying the image in the Activity Feed? When the carouselTile has multiple images, can you programmatically change which image is active? Any information/materials you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
