Live Capture: How do I access the currently connected clients and update Face Device in script?

You are correct that currently there is no public access to the client list.
For now, you can use reflection to access the clients, something like this:

Code (CSharp):

1. using System;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using System.Reflection;
4. using Unity.LiveCapture;
5. using Unity.LiveCapture.CompanionApp;
6.  
7. public static class ClientUtility
8. {
9.     public static IEnumerable<ICompanionAppClient> GetClients()
10.     {
11.         var serverType = Type.GetType("Unity.LiveCapture.CompanionApp.CompanionAppServer");
12.         var server = UnityEngine.Object.FindObjectOfType(serverType);
13.        
14.         var getClientsMethod = serverType.GetMethod("GetClients");
15.         return getClientsMethod.Invoke(server, null) as IEnumerable<ICompanionAppClient>;
16.     }
17. }
18.  

I've not tested it, but the general approach should work. Since this uses reflection, it is not guaranteed to work going forwards, but should work in the mean time until this functionality is exposed publicly. I hope this helps!

I've tested it and fixed the issue, here is a version that should work:

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2.     public static IEnumerable<ICompanionAppClient> GetClients()
3.     {
4.         var serverType = Type.GetType("Unity.LiveCapture.CompanionApp.CompanionAppServer, Unity.LiveCapture.CompanionApp");
5.         var server = ServerManager.Instance.CreateServer(serverType);
6.  
7.         var getClientsMethod = serverType.GetMethod("GetClients");
8.         return getClientsMethod.Invoke(server, null) as IEnumerable<ICompanionAppClient>;
9.     }
10.
