What is the correct way to create a live streaming session in Panopto?

in API

Hi, I have a simple .Net 5 web app(c#) that generates a block of recording sessions. It's working fine for normally scheduled sessions, but not live sessions.

I am trying to create the live webcast Panopto session that users can live stream like this:

scheduleResult = await recorderClient.ScheduleRecordingAsync(

recorderManagementAuth,

schedulingEvent.SessionName,

schedulingEvent.SessionCatalogId,

schedulingEvent.IsBroadCast,

schedulingEvent.SessionStart.ToUniversalTime(),

schedulingEvent.SessionEnd.ToUniversalTime(),

recorderSettings.ToArray()

);

Even if I manually set `IsBroadCast` to true, I never get a live streaming session.


Is there any other property I need to set?


Thanks!

    Chris,

    Thank you for posting.

    Am I correct that you succeeded to schedule a recording as a live streaming in the end?

    For your secondary question about the link to the session, you may query the target session by GetSessionById method (Panopto.Server.Services.PublicAPI.V46.Soap.ISessionManagement) and refer ViewerUrl field.

    UPDATE: So what I did is correct. However, I now realize my issue is getting the link to the session that is webcast. How does one get this URL?

    thanks!
