App Screenshots in Oculus Screenshots folder/Sharing Menu

Our goal is to allow a user to capture screenshots in our app with our custom camera tool, and have these screenshots appear in the Oculus "Sharing" menu.

 

Currently we have a custom camera tool in our app. We are successfully saving the images we capture to:

/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.company.app/files/filename.png

 

However, we receive an UnauthorizedExeption: Access to path "" is denied when we attempt to move our images, or save our images to:

/storage/emulated/0/Oculus/Screenshots/

 

What is the proper way to ensure our custom screenshots show up in the Oculus system "Sharing" menu?

 RickEGM did you ever find a solution? I'm facing the exact same problem despite having the WRITE permission enabled. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, we are trying to achiev the same thing. Did you find a solution how to add the images captured by the app to appear in the Sharing/Camera menu?
I am able to save images to DCIM folder using the UnityNativeGallery ( https://github.com/yasirkula/UnityNativeGallery ). But then I am only able to see the files in the File Viewer or Files menu and I am unable to share the images from those.
