iPad Multitasking with Teams

I have a customer that uses iPads for test assessments and they would like to have the camera remain on for Teams while in multitasking mode. Do we currently support this scenario

    Apparently Microsoft will need to ask for special access to the camera in multitasking API. https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/apple-gave-zoom-access-to-special-api-to-use-ipad-camera-during-split-view-multitasking.2295426/

      PDelplace In iPadOS 16 and later, your app can enable using the camera while multitasking. So it is possible for teams or any other apps to activate it.
