    • When not provided, the value is set to { audio: true, video: true }. To fallback to retrieve audio track only when retrieving of audio and video tracks failed, enable the audioFallback flag in the init() method.
    • useExactConstraints {Boolean} Optional
      DEFAULT: false

      Note that by enabling this flag, exact values will be requested when retrieving camera Stream, but it does not prevent constraints related errors. By default when not enabled, expected mandatory maximum values (or optional values for source ID) will requested to prevent constraints related errors, with an exception for options.video.frameRate option in Safari and IE (any plugin-enabled) browsers, where the expected maximum value will not be requested due to the lack of support.
      The flag if getUserMedia() should request for camera Stream to match exact requested values of options.audio.deviceId and options.video.deviceId, options.video.resolution and options.video.frameRate when provided.

    • audio {Boolean | JSON} Optional
      DEFAULT: false

      Note that the current Edge browser implementation does not support the options.audio.optional, options.audio.deviceId, options.audio.echoCancellation.
      The audio configuration options.

      • stereo {Boolean} Optional
        DEFAULT: false
        Deprecation Warning! This property has been deprecated. Configure this with the options.codecParams.audio.opus.stereo parameter in the init() method instead. If the options.codecParams.audio.opus.stereo is configured, this overrides the options.audio.stereo setting.
        The flag if OPUS audio codec stereo band should be configured for sending encoded audio data. When not provided, the default browser configuration is used.
      • usedtx {Boolean} Optional
        Deprecation Warning! This property has been deprecated. Configure this with the options.codecParams.audio.opus.stereo parameter in the init() method instead. If the options.codecParams.audio.opus.stereo is configured, this overrides the options.audio.stereo setting. Note that this feature might not work depending on the browser support and implementation.
        The flag if OPUS audio codec should enable DTX (Discontinuous Transmission) for sending encoded audio data. This might help to reduce bandwidth as it reduces the bitrate during silence or background noise, and goes hand-in-hand with the options.voiceActivityDetection flag in joinRoom() method. When not provided, the default browser configuration is used.
      • useinbandfec {Boolean} Optional
        Deprecation Warning! This property has been deprecated. Configure this with the options.codecParams.audio.opus.useinbandfec parameter in the init() method instead. If the options.codecParams.audio.opus.useinbandfec is configured, this overrides the options.audio.useinbandfec setting. Note that this parameter should only be used for debugging purposes only.
        The flag if OPUS audio codec has the capability to take advantage of the in-band FEC (Forward Error Correction) when sending encoded audio data. This helps to reduce the harm of packet loss by encoding information about the previous packet loss. When not provided, the default browser configuration is used.
      • maxplaybackrate {Number} Optional
        Deprecation Warning! This property has been deprecated. Configure this with the options.codecParams.audio.opus.maxplaybackrate parameter in the init() method instead. If the options.codecParams.audio.opus.maxplaybackrate is configured, this overrides the options.audio.maxplaybackrate setting. Note that this feature might not work depending on the browser support and implementation. Note that this parameter should only be used for debugging purposes only.
        The OPUS audio codec maximum output sampling rate in Hz (hertz) that is is capable of receiving decoded audio data, to adjust to the hardware limitations and ensure that any sending audio data would not encode at a higher sampling rate specified by this. This value must be between 8000 to 48000. When not provided, the default browser configuration is used.
      • mute {Boolean} Optional
        DEFAULT: false The flag if audio tracks should be muted upon receiving them. Providing the value as false does nothing to peerInfo.mediaStatus.audioMuted, but when provided as true, this sets the peerInfo.mediaStatus.audioMuted value to true and mutes any existing shareScreen() Stream audio tracks as well.
      • optional {Array} Optional
        Note that this may result in constraints related error when options.useExactConstraints value is true. If you are looking to set the requested source ID of the audio track, use options.audio.deviceId instead.

    The configuration options.

    • When provided as a string, it's configured as options.appKey.
    • appKey {String}

      The App Key. By default, init() uses HTTP CORS authentication. For credentials based authentication, see the options.credentials configuration below. You can know more about the in the authentication methods article here for more details on the various authentication methods. If you are using the Persistent Room feature for scheduled meetings, you will require to use the credential based authentication. See the Persistent Room article here for more information.

    • defaultRoom {String} Optional

      The default Room to connect to when no room parameter is provided in joinRoom() method.

      • When not provided or is provided as an empty string, its value is options.appKey. Note that switching Rooms is not available when using options.credentials based authentication. The Room that User will be connected to is the defaultRoom provided.
    • roomServer {String} Optional

      The Auth server for debugging purposes to use. Note that this is a debugging feature and is only used when instructed for debugging purposes.

    • enableIceTrickle {Boolean} Optional
      DEFAULT: true

      The flag if Peer connections should trickle ICE for faster connectivity.

    • enableDataChannel {Boolean} Optional
      DEFAULT: true

      Note that for Edge browsers, this value is overriden as false due to its supports.
      The flag if Datachannel connections should be enabled. This is required to be enabled for sendBlobData() method, sendURLData() method and sendP2PMessage() method.

    • enableTURNServer {Boolean} Optional
      DEFAULT: true

      The flag if TURN ICE servers should be used when constructing Peer connections to allow TURN connections when required and enabled for the App Key.

      The getUserMedia() method options.video parameter settings. When value is defined as true or an object, getUserMedia() method to be invoked to retrieve new Stream. If options.audio is not defined, it will be defined as false. Object signature matches the options.video parameter in the getUserMedia() method.

    • voiceActivityDetection {Boolean} Optional
      DEFAULT: true

      The flag if voice activity detection should be enabled. This can only be toggled if User is and for the offerer, which is determined if User's peerInfo.config.priorityWeight is higher than Peer's.

      This works hand-in-hand with the options.disableComfortNoiseCodec flag in the init() method and the options.audio.usedtx setting in getUserMedia() method. VAD (voice activity detection) detects if there is an active voice in the Stream, and if there is no active voice in the Stream, the options.audio.usedtx (if enabled) would prevent sending these empty bits. To prevent huge differences when there is a silence and an active voice later, the CN codec would produce an empty voice to make it sound better.

      The OPUS audio codec maximum output sampling rate in Hz (hertz) that is is capable of receiving decoded audio data, to adjust to the hardware limitations and ensure that any sending audio data would not encode at a higher sampling rate specified by this. This value must be between 8000 to 48000. When not provided, the default browser configuration is used.

    • echoCancellation {Boolean} Optional
      DEFAULT: true

      For Chrome/Opera/IE/Safari/Bowser, the echo cancellation functionality may not work and may produce a terrible feedback. It is recommended to use headphones or other microphone devices rather than the device in-built microphones.
      The flag to enable echo cancellation for audio track.

  • callback {Function} Optional

    The callback function fired when request has completed. Function parameters signature is function (error, success) Function request completion is determined by the mediaAccessSuccess event triggering isScreensharing parameter payload value as true for request success when User is not in the Room or is in Room without Peers, or by the peerRestart event triggering isSelfInitiateRestart parameter payload value as true for all connected Peers for request success when User is in Room with Peers.
