Booking API example

When using the API as a web reference, the ParticipantsTypes for "IP Video", "ISDN Video" and so on are
created as enumerations called IPTel, IPTel1, and so on. Values ending in 1 are dial-out, values not
ending in 1 are dial-ins.

The code snippet below shows how to create a conference to two external participants (specified by IP
address). A Cisco TelePresence MCU is required for this call to be saved.

// Specify username and password to authenticate to service.

// (Can also be done in web.config)

NetworkCredential credentials = new NetworkCredential("xxx", "yyy", "ZZZ");

BookingService bookingService = new BookingService();

bookingService.Credentials = credentials;

// Set API to use version 9

if (bookingService.ExternalAPIVersionSoapHeaderValue == null)

bookingService.ExternalAPIVersionSoapHeaderValue = new
BookingService.ExternalAPIVersionSoapHeader();

bookingService.ExternalAPIVersionSoapHeaderValue.ClientVersionIn = 9;

// Get a default conference object, where most common values are set

// (using default values specified in Cisco TMS)

Conference conference = bookingService.GetDefaultConference();

// Create an array of participants

Participant[] participants = new Participant[2];

// Create the elements of the array (the actual participants)

participants[0] = new Participant();

participants[0].ParticipantCallType = ParticipantType.IPVideo1; // Dial-out video

participants[0].NameOrNumber = "10.47.8.170";

participants[1] = new Participant();

participants[1].ParticipantCallType = ParticipantType.IPVideo1; // Dial-out video

participants[1].NameOrNumber = "10.47.8.171";

// Add the participants to the conference.

conference.Participants = participants;

// Save the conference, saving the returned conference (where all values are now
specified)

conference = bookingService.SaveConference(conference);

// Output information about the conference.

Console.Out.WriteLine(conference.ConferenceInfoText);

Console.Out.WriteLine(conference.UserMessageText);

Console.Out.WriteLine(conference.ConferenceId);
