What you are expecting is a Windows 8 Store app experience, that the user can find the permission toggles by opening Charm Bar and then selecting Settings->Permissions.

On UWP, there is no Charm Bar. You are expected to provide a convenient link to launch the Settings app to a specific page for the permission the app is requesting.

Use the ms-settings scheme in the link.

await Windows.System.Launcher.LaunchUriAsync(new Uri("ms-settings:privacy-webcam"));

You can put the convenient link in the Settings panel of the app.
