Turning a Webcam on and off using a weblink

Hi,
I had a question regarding the use of an external Logitech USB webcam camera. I am using something called Arduino Yun which has its own network and establishing a weblink is possible. I was wondering how I could make an application in Appery.io that would turn this camera on and off via a weblink. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Karthik

Hello Karthik,

Does your webcam has REST API? If so you can use REST service:

Sergiy,
Thanks for the help, the Arduino Yun does have REST API but how would I integrate this into my application. And what would I fill out when I create a new service in my App?

Karthik, we don't know your Arduino's Yun API. If you give us such API we would help you to implement it in appery.io.
