Official Plugins

The Official Plugins are a set of Capacitor plugins maintained by the Capacitor team that provide access to commonly used native APIs.

The API documentation for these plugins can be found below.

Versioning

npm Tags (latest and latest-X)

Capacitor provides special npm distribution tags to make installing compatible plugin versions easier.

• The latest tag installs the most recent plugin version available.
• Use latest-X (for example, latest-7) to install the most recent version of official Capacitor plugins compatible with Capacitor X.
• These tags express Capacitor version compatibility, not the plugin's own version number. A plugin may be at v2 or v3 and still be the correct release for latest-7.
• These tags are intended for use in npm install commands and will resolve to the appropriate range in your package.json.
• This tagging convention applies to official Capacitor plugins and may not be consistently supported by community plugins.

Example:

npm install @capacitor/camera@latest
# example: v8.0.1
npm install @capacitor/device@latest-7
# example: v7.0.2
