getSnapshot method only returning snapshot of current time even when setting a timestamp in the past

[hammocktester]

Describe The Problem:

Unable to use the getSnapshot method to get historical timestamps. I am able to log in and get camera list and pass the camera info into the getSnapshot method but the method is only returning the live snapshot and not historical ones. Is there a bug here or did I miss a setting on the unifi side or something on the javascript side?

To Reproduce:

var image = await ufp.getSnapshot(cam, 1280, 720, 1721019600000, false)
fs.createWriteStream('b.jpeg').write(image);

Not seeing anything relevant in the logs besides the logins from the api user

UniFi’s deprecated the snapshot API by and large for reasons they have stated in their support forums. Grabbing the current snapshot is as good as it gets for the time being. Thanks for raising it to my attention.
