Hi Leema,

You can use this web page to generate sample API calls

http://www.omarshammas.com/bbbapibuddy

Enter the URL and salt for your server (all the logic occurs within
the web page itself, so there is no storage of your URL and salt on a
server).

You can generate create, join, and end calls and compare them with
those generated by your application.

Regards,... Fred

Hi many thanks for your response. I tried from the url you've
specified but still i'm unable to end the meeting. its giving
'invalidMeetingIdentifier'. is there any setting in conf or other way
to try?

Hi Leema,

It should work for you on your server. Can you try it with the
default values on the API Buddy.

I just tried it and the steps I followed were

1. Goto

http://www.omarshammas.com/bbbapibuddy

2. Changed the meeting ID (make it unique)
3. Clicked the create link (actually I right-clicked this link and
subsequent links to open in a new window)
4. Clicked the join link
5. Clicked the end link

For (5) I received back the following XML

<response>
<returncode>SUCCESS</returncode>
<messageKey>sentEndMeetingRequest</messageKey>
<message>
A request to end the meeting was sent. Please wait a few seconds,
and then use the getMeetingInfo or isMeetingRunning API calls to
verify that it was ended.
</message>
</response>

Try the above using the default values for Server and Salt on the API
Buddy, then enter values for your server. Let us know if you can do
the above with the default values and with your server.
