I searched varies post online about Cordova Plugin Camera to working in Android 8.0. My problem is captured image cannot be done in Android 8.0. There's some suggestion to use File Folder to capture images but how to make it work in current code?

I get an error when using "saveToPhotoAlbum: true" after upgrading to Android v.8. If i disable this I can take pictures again.
