  description: 'Endpoints for browsing cameras that are publicly accessible. A camera appears here if it has the Broadcasting service active and has been marked as public — either because it uses free public broadcasting, or because the camera owner has explicitly enabled public access.

    > **Access restricted:** These endpoints are available only to partners who have arranged access with Angelcam. Please contact [support](https://www.angelcam.com/support/) if you are interested in using them.
