Enabling the Events Notification Server

User-level and room-level events, such as a user logging in or joining a room, or a room being added or deleted, can be published in the JSON format over a TCP connection. Therefore, API users do not need to poll the VidyoPortal to see what rooms exist and which users have joined those rooms. As a result, events get pushed in real-time so that users can immediately apply business rules to those events.

• User events include the following:
  • Offline
  • Online
  • Busy
  • Call Ended
    
    
• Room events include the following:
  • Add Room
  • Update Room
  • Delete Room
