Scheduling a Recurring Meeting Series

BookCycleConf

API Description

This API is used to schedule a recurring meeting series.

Precautions

  1. Call this API after login.
  2. This API is an asynchronous API. The return value only indicates whether the API is successfully called. The actual service processing result is returned in the corresponding callback function.
  3. The meeting start time must be later than the current time, and the meeting duration must be longer than 15 minutes.
  4. The attendees parameter must be passed if participant information needs to be carried.
  5. The maximum time span of a recurring meeting series is one year. The number of recurring meetings in a series cannot exceed 50. Otherwise, only the first 50 meetings are scheduled.
  6. The callback function returns details about scheduled meetings. For details, see HwmConfDetail. If only meeting IDs are returned, meeting details fail to be obtained.
