# GetImageToBlob

This method is used to acquire an image from the attached camera, and storing the image blob storage (in localblobstorage).

### **Method Name:**

GetImageToBlob

### **Payload:**

The direct command requires a container, a blob file name and optionally an exposure time measured in microseconds.

```
{
    "container": "mycontainer",
    "blobName": "image.bmp",
    "exposureUs": 25000
}
```

The above command acquires an image with an exposure time of 25000 microseconds (25 milliseconds), with the blob name "image.bmp". The blob is saved in the container "mycontainer". If the container does not already exist, it will be created.

ExposureUs is optional, and the default value is 15000 microseconds.

### **Return value**

The direct command returns an OperationResult that indicates either success or failure.
