Message Examples

This content is no longer actively maintained. It is provided as is, for anyone who may still be using these technologies, with no warranties or claims of accuracy with regard to the most recent product version or service release.

Requests are submitted to the request URL, which is obtained from the GetPostingURL operation.

The root element is PlaceWareConfCenter. Each request and reply consists of one instance of PlaceWareConfCenter, which contains the request or reply element.

Requests must be encoded in UTF-8 or UTF-16. Any Content-type or Content-encoding HTTP headers in a request are ignored.

Replies are encoded in UTF-8 and include a Content-type HTTP header with the value application/xml. Replies do not include a Content-encoding HTTP header.

Requests must include the authUser and authPassword attributes or the authTicket attribute in the PlaceWareConfCenter element type. These attributes contain the user credentials for the user making the request. This user must be a conference center administrator or a meeting organizer.

A request is executed based on the permissions granted for the user's role. The scope of requests from an organizer is limited to that organizer's user account and meetings and recordings owned by that organizer. Requests from an administrator can operate on any meetings, recordings, or users in the conference center.

Request elements have the form OperationRequest, where Operation is the name of the operation to perform. If the operation succeeds, the reply element is named OperationReply. If the operation fails, the reply contains a Fault or InfoWarn element.

The following sample shows a request to get the details for a particular meeting and the reply. The sample includes the HTTP headers. The Content-Length values are omitted. The conference center is named Contoso in this example.
