Answer 1

For capturing the image on click of button added at HTML file:

takePicture(){
    Camera.getPicture({
        destinationType: Camera.DestinationType.DATA_URL,
        targetWidth: 1000,
        targetHeight: 1000
    }).then((imageData) => {
      // imageData is a base64 encoded string
        this.base64Image = "data:image/jpeg;base64," + imageData;

    }, (err) => {
        console.log(err);
    });
  }
sharePicture(){

// Share via whatsapp

this.socialSharing.shareViaWhatsApp(this.message,this.base64Image,this.url).then(() => {
  // Success!
}).catch(() => {
  // Error!
});
}

Just declare the message, image and url as string.

Answer 2

the parameter image should be a path(URL) to the Image. and not the Image data.
