This document describes how to call the meeting APIs to create a video meeting and perform related operations. First, create an internal app, and then use the meeting APIs to create a video meeting, close a video meeting, and batch query video meeting information.
Process overview
Prerequisite: Complete the app creation and configuration process.
Step 1: Obtain the app credential to get the client ID and Client Secret.
Step 2: Request API permissions for the meeting-related APIs.
Step 3: Obtain the app access credential by following Obtain the access token of an internal app. The access token is used to authenticate the caller when calling APIs.
Step 4: Call the meeting-related Server APIs.
-
Call the Server API Create a video meeting to create a video meeting and obtain the meeting
conferenceId.
-
Based on the
conferenceId, call the Server API Batch query video meeting information to obtain the meeting information and the list of members.
-
Based on the
conferenceId, call the Server API Start cloud recording for a video meeting to start cloud recording.
-
Based on the
conferenceId, call the Server API Start cloud recording for a video meeting to stop cloud recording.
-
Based on the
conferenceId, call the Server API Close a video meeting to close the meeting.
-
Query meeting recording information.
- Based on the
conferenceId, call the Server API Query recording details of a meeting to retrieve information such as the recorder, recording start time, and recording duration.
- Based on the
conferenceId, call the Server API Query video information of a meeting recording to retrieve information such as the video download URL, video file size, and video duration.
- Based on the
conferenceId, call the Server API Query text information of a meeting recording to retrieve information such as the recorded text content, text record start time, and text record end time.
Prerequisites
Complete the app creation and configuration process.
Step 1: Obtain the app credential
- Select the target app to open the app details page, and click Basic information > Credentials and basic information.
- Obtain the client ID and Client Secret.
Step 2: Add API permissions
Click Development configuration > Manage permissions. In the permission search box, enter VideoConference.Conference.Write and VideoConference.Conference.Read respectively, and request the permissions.
Step 3: Obtain the app access token
For differences between Server APIs, see Legacy API vs. New API. The following APIs all use the Server API. For SDK downloads, see Server-side SDK Download.
Using the client ID and Client Secret from Step 1, obtain the app access token by following Obtain the access token of an internal app.
-
Call the Server API Create a video meeting to create a video meeting and obtain the
conferenceId.
-
Based on the
conferenceId, call the Server API Batch query video meeting information to obtain the meeting information and the list of members.
Note
Only ongoing video meetings can be queried.
-
Based on the
conferenceId, call the Server API Start cloud recording for a video meeting to start cloud recording.
-
Based on the
conferenceId, call the Server API Stop cloud recording for a video meeting to stop cloud recording.
-
Based on the
conferenceId, call the Server API Close a video meeting to close the meeting.
-
Query meeting recording information.
-
Based on the
conferenceId, call the Server API Query recording details of a meeting to retrieve information such as the recorder, recording start time, and recording duration.
-
Based on the
conferenceId, call the Server API Query video information of a meeting recording to retrieve information such as the video download URL, video file size, and video duration.
-
Based on the
conferenceId, call the Server API Query text information of a meeting recording to retrieve information such as the recorded text content, text record start time, and text record end time.
