Hello,
I have the following problem that I can not get a snapshot image externally.
if I do it internally in octoprint it works.
but i tried it with
(?action=snapshot)...but I don't receive any image....
the same when i enter in the browser this address:
http://192.168.178.120:8080/?action=snapshot&usr=username&pwd=passwort
i get as answer:
192.168.178.120 has refused the connection.
where is the error ?
tthanks Marcell
What setup are you using? OctoPi?

On OctoPi the webcam is accessible under http://<your-ip>/webcam/?action=snapshot, port 8080 is only available to the Pi internally.
Also while you're here:
Your Pi is power throttled and unstable, it is reporting undervoltage issues. You should get a better power supply.
Okay, i will fix that with the power supply.
But how can i get the snapshot from externally?
Thanks
I gave you the URL;
If you mean outside your network, you will have to setup a remote access solution that will also provide you with the webcam feed.
no, i have a smarthome server (FHEM)
on another raspberry and I would like to send snapshot.
so I would be enough if I knew how I would receive an image.
i have now as path this :
path:/webcam/?action=snapshot
but it does not work
just to be sure - there needs to be a port after the :
If you don't want to use a port, you have to remove the :
so the url should look like http://octopi/webcam/?action=snapshot
Thank you. I ll try it
Mhmm. I get this message
http://192.168.178.120:8080/webcam/?action=snapshot - 192.168.178.120: Verbindungsaufbau abgelehnt (111)
So:
Connection rejected
Any idea? When I try this in the browser it works without credentials
Or do I have to enter additional credentials?
Okay, just to complete... Had all the time the port with specified. That's why it didn't work now with port. Without port it worked now everything.
Thanks for the great support
I also missed that in your last post 
Glad to hear it worked
