Dear all!

As read on FAQ, i know session will be cretaed once a room is created (the create request succeeded). Then users can join the session and interact within the session.

My problem:

 iframe bigbluebutton on asp.net. the link iframe will like that: https://domain.com/bigbluebutton/api/joint!meetingID=meetingid&fullName=fullname&password=mp&checksum=*******'. It work and create a room , but if i copy that link to another browser or other pc, it will join with the same person (duplicate people).

so how to make https://domain.com/client/bigbluebutton.html/?sessionToken=**********  when iframe

 Or is there any way to get session value?

Please help

I'm not really sure why you need that sessionToken. The sessionToken is browser specific and is associated with a Java Bean in bbb-web (tomcat). The token can't be transferred and used elsewhere. The token also can't be generated by your front-end because bbb-web needs to create it.

If you want your users to join with different names all you need to do is generate a join request for that user. A good tool for exploring the different API properties and URLs is Mconf's API Mate http://mconf.github.io/api-mate/. Every time you change the "fullName" property a new join URL is created.

Dear Chad Pilkey

I will look at Mconf.

Thanks
