Answer 1

According to information from MDN, permissions API is still experimental and its request method marked as non-standart, but we can use query method:

RaisedButton(
  child: Text("Request permission"),
  onPressed: () async {
    final perm = await html.window.navigator.permissions.query({"name": "camera"});
    if (perm.state == "denied") {
      Scaffold.of(context).showSnackBar(SnackBar(
        content: Text("Oops! Camera access denied!"),
        backgroundColor: Colors.orangeAccent,
      ));
      return;
    }
    final stream = await html.window.navigator.getUserMedia(video: true);
    // ...
  },
),

Answer 2

This's how you request the camera/audio permission.

await html.window.navigator.getUserMedia(audio: true, video: true);

and then check the permission

final status =
          await html.window.navigator.permissions?.query({"name": "camera"});
