Invitation URL missing from public chat

Open fvlasie opened this issue 1 year ago • 5 comments

Hello,

When creating a meeting via Greenlight a link to invite people shows in the public chat:

To invite someone to the meeting, send them this link:
https://bbb...

When creating a meeting via API the message is missing. What can I do to create an invitation link when creating a meeting via API?

Thank you!

Hi @fvlasie are you using the PHP library to create API calls?

Yes I am!

@fvlasie Can you please share the generated create URL?

@fvlasie This library has two different methods that you can use to get the URL (to send in your invitation), depending on your needs:

https://github.com/bigbluebutton/bigbluebutton-api-php/blob/aaa77710d5e352fce2c96e59293e3bdeae8b6f77/src/BigBlueButton.php#L123

This method calls BBB API with create parameter - https://docs.bigbluebutton.org/development/api#create

https://github.com/bigbluebutton/bigbluebutton-api-php/blob/aaa77710d5e352fce2c96e59293e3bdeae8b6f77/src/BigBlueButton.php#L147

This calls the join parameter on BBB API - https://docs.bigbluebutton.org/development/api#join

In both cases (if I'm not wrong) you will get the publicly accessible URL of the meeting.

A third option is to retrieve the meeting info with joinMeeting method to get a JoinMeetingResponse

@fvlasie is the issue still happening in the latest version of the library?
