Description

name

string type. Length range 1–32 characters.

The scheduled start time for the meeting before adjustment by the startTimeOffset option specified in the CreateMeetingRequest options. New API client software should instead use the startTime option specified in the options for CreateMeetingRequest Element. The startTime attribute and the startTime option are mutually exclusive; do not send both. If both this attribute and the startTime option are omitted, the default is the current time.

Remarks

If a StringQuery is present, its field name must be personalPlaceOf. The meeting is created in the personal place of the organizer whose authentication credentials (either authUser/authPassword or authTicket, depending on the usage context) are provided in the parent PlaceWareConfCenter element and whose user ID is given in the StringQuery. The request fails if there is already a meeting in the personal place of the given organizer.

If you use a new option in a previous version of Live Meeting, an error message is returned.

If you use both the startTime attribute and option, the meeting is created using the OptionList startTime value.

Child Elements

The OptionList Element child element specifies parameters to be set on the meeting that is being requested. The following options describe supported meeting parameters.

For a list of options that can appear in the OptionList and FieldList child elements, see the following tables.

Read-write meeting options are listed in Table 1. Meeting options that are read-only are listed in Table 2. You can request the values to be returned in the reply to the CreateMeetingRequest by listing them in the FieldList Element element.

Note

The tag option values assigned by a client must not be in the following list of values reserved by Live Meeting: "LRS", "RPD", "OLK" or any value beginning with"_" other than "_EA". "_EA" is only used in the case where the client is creating Easy Assist Sessions.

tag

StringOption Element. Length range 1–3 characters for external systems.

Contains the tag of the current meeting. The value of this option is a string that uniquely identifies the current meeting.

If you do not explicitly specify this option, the two option name/value pairs tag=XML and tagId=null are passed to the server and the meeting is created as a Live Meeting 2007 client Web meeting.

The tag option values assigned by a client must not be in the following list of values reserved by Live Meeting: "LRS", "RPD", "OLK" or any value beginning with"_". For example, "_EA" cannot be used by a client except where the client is creating an Easy Assist session.

tagId

StringOption Element. Length range 1–16 characters.

Contains the identifier of the current meeting. The string value of this option represents an integer that uniquely identifies the current meeting.

If you do not explicitly specify this option, the two option name/value pairs tag=XML and tagId=null are passed to the server and the meeting is created as a Live Meeting 2007 client Web meeting.

The 1, 4, 7, and 10 mappings correspond to the backward compatibility for the audio options.

Note

A new fault code Client.BadSyntax.BadChoice.AudioBroadcast has been added for the error condition 3 and 9 in the above table.

Constraints   If the enableAudioBroadcast is True, enableAudioVOIP is not specified, and the default value for enableAudioVOIP is False, enableAudioVOIP is still set to True instead of giving out the fault code. This is allowed for backward compatibility.

Also, if audioEmbedded for the meeting is True and enableAudioVOIP is True, but the audioConferenceProvider for a meeting is “other,” audioEmbedded is switched off because “Telephone and computer audio conferencing” is not supported if the conference provider is “other.”

Administrative Control of the billing Option

A conference center can be configured to permit only users in the Administrator role to set or change the billing option. When this setting is enabled:

  • The billing option can only be changed for users. Administrators must use the ModifyUser or ModifyUserProfile message to change the value of the billing option.

  • Requests by an administrator to set or change the billing option for a meeting is ignored. No fault is returned in the reply.

  • Requests by a non-administrator user to set or change the billing option is ignored. No fault is returned in the reply.

When this setting is disabled, any Administrator can change this option for users or meetings. Any Organizer can change this option for the user account or meetings that the Organizer owns. You can request a change of this setting through the normal sales channel for your organization.

Autogeneration of a Meeting Name That Is Not Specified

In Live Meeting service API, the CreateMeeting API is updated to autogenerate the meeting name if a meeting name is not specified or is blank. The meeting name is returned as a string option if name is in the FieldList of the request.

The following code provides a CreateMeetingRequest example where no meeting name is specified.

<PlaceWareConfCenter authUser="apiuser" authPassword="Pa$$w0rd">
  <CreateMeetingRequest
      maxUsers="100"
      title="Contoso 2006 Kickoff">
      <OptionList>
      <TimeOption name="startTime" value="2006-04-01T18:00:00Z"/>
      <TimeOption name="endTime" value="2006-04-01T20:00:00Z"/>
     </OptionList>
    <FieldList>
      <Name>mid</Name>
      <Name>name</Name>
      <Name>audiencePassword</Name>
      <Name>presenterPassword</Name>
    </FieldList>
  </CreateMeetingRequest>
</PlaceWareConfCenter>

The code shows the CreateMeetingReply reply with the meeting name returned.

<PlaceWareConfCenter>
  <CreateMeetingReply>
    <MeetingReply>
      <OptionList>
        <StringOption name="mid" value="k77balgqvew2"/>
        <StringOption name="name" value="EFG4D"/>
        <StringOption name="audiencePassword" value="auPa$$w0rd"/>
        <StringOption name="presenterPassword" value="prPa$$w0rd"/>
      </OptionList>
    </MeetingReply>
  </CreateMeetingReply>
</PlaceWareConfCenter>

Application Note: Opaque Options

ApplicationNote:Opaque Options   The meeting options opaque1 and opaque2, and the user option opaque1 specified in CreateUser Message, have different uses as described in CreateUser Message. The opaque options allow you to associate additional data with users and meetings for use in custom applications.Whenever an organizer creates a meeting, the new meeting's opaque1 option value is copied from the Organizers opaque1 option.

The opaque options are also allowed in the StringQuery elements of operations such as the ModifyMeeting Message and DeleteMeeting Message messages.

Example

The code shows how to use enablePersonalRecording in the OptionList.

<PlaceWareConfCenter authUser="apiuser" authPassword="Pa$$w0rd">
    <CreateMeeting ...>
    ....
        <Option List>
            ...
            <BooleanOption name="enablePersonalRecording" value="True"/>
            ...
        </OptionList>
    ...
    </CreateMeeting>
</PlaceWareConfCenter>
