Use the built in Lenovo monitor Webcam on a Macbook pro

I have a solution, not a question. Thought this might be useful for other users.

My Lenovo monitor (T24v-20) has a built in webcam. It comes with 3 cords/leads:

HDMI
USB

3 Another cord/lead that has USB at one end and a square "SS" at the other end (see pic)

You need to use two cords/leads - 2 & 3 for the Lenovo monitor to be your second screen and to get the camera to work.

Using an external webcam with my MacBook Air I've attached an LG monitor/display to my MacBook Air and am wondering if I can now attach a small webcam to the top of the monitor -- will the MacBook Air accept it? I don't see anywhere in Settings for changing the camera. Thanks folks!

How can I use continuity camera with my Mac studio when it isn't connected to a webcam to begin with? I connect my mac studio to a monitor that doesn't have a camera. So when using any video call related app the camera is immediately off. Zoom for example there is no option to "change camera". There is no camera connected to begin with so I have no drop down menu to select my iPhone in zoom or meets. It works with my macbook, but my macbook has a webcam. I want to use this continuity camera with my desktop because it doesn't have a webcam to begin with.
