Example

The following examples show that when a faulty message is sent to a conference center, an error message is returned.

The following is a request sent to a conference center to schedule a meeting for the Scandinavian market. Unfortunately, an illegal character is used in the name attribute in CreateMeetingRequest. This triggers a Fault element returned.

<PlaceWareConfCenter authUser="apiuser" authPassword="Pa$$w0rd">
  <CreateMeetingRequest
      maxUsers="4"
      name="mte"
      startTime="2000-07-31T09:00:00Z"
      title="Contoso 2001 Scandinavian Strategy">
    <OptionList>
      <TimeOption name="endTime" value="2000-07-31T10:00:00Z"/>
      <StringOption name="timeZone" value=" America/Los_Angeles"/>
    </OptionList>
    <FieldList>
      <Name>mid</Name>
      <Name>audiencePassword</Name>
      <Name>presenterPassword</Name>
    </FieldList>
  </CreateMeetingRequest>
</PlaceWareConfCenter>

The following is the reply returned from the conference center showing an error occurred while processing the request.

<PlaceWareConfCenter>
    <Fault>
        <FaultCode>Client.BadSyntax.BadCharacter.String</FaultCode>
        <FaultString>Value must not contain ''</FaultString>
        <OptionList>
            <StringOption value="name" name="fieldName">
            </StringOption>
            <StringOption value="mte" name="stringValue">
            </StringOption>
            <TimeOption value="2007-09-25T21:23:51Z" name="time">
            </TimeOption>
            <StringOption value="q11fgq5znm" name="rapid.requestId">
            </StringOption>
        </OptionList>
    </Fault>
</PlaceWareConfCenter>

The error occurred because the name attributeof the CreateMeetingRequest cannot contain any letters except a-z and A-Z. Characters outside this range are not permitted.
