Quickly Joining a Meeting

Scenarios

A third-party application user can schedule a meeting by specifying parameters such as the API Gateway access address and meeting user account. If the meeting is scheduled, the user obtains a link for joining the meeting. After the user clicks the link, Huawei Cloud Meeting Management Platform automatically starts the Huawei Cloud Meeting client to join the meeting.

  1. The third-party application initializes parameters, such as the API Gateway access address and user account.
  2. The third-party application sends a meeting scheduling request to API Gateway and transfers the initialized parameters.
  3. API Gateway sends a meeting scheduling request to Huawei Cloud Meeting Management Platform.
  4. After the meeting is scheduled, Huawei Cloud Meeting Management Platform returns the meeting details to API Gateway.
  5. API Gateway returns the received meeting details to the third-party application.
  6. The third-party application obtains the meeting ID and password. To join the meeting using a link, the third-party application sends a meeting authentication request to API Gateway.
  7. API Gateway sends a meeting authentication request to Huawei Cloud Meeting Management Platform.
  8. After the meeting authentication is successful, Huawei Cloud Meeting Management Platform returns the authentication details to API Gateway.
  9. API Gateway returns the received authentication details, including the authentication random number (random) and the next hop URL (siteUrl), to the third-party application.
