Objective

Configuring session monitoring callbacks to receive real-time session events for your Vonage Video API projects and monitor your session activity from your app server.

Applies To

• Vonage Video API
• Projects
• Session Monitoring

Procedure

Session monitoring callback URLs can be configured within the account portal. Whenever a Session event is detected, such as a connection is created or destroyed, or a stream is created or destroyed, a HTTP POST request is issued from the Vonage Video API infrastructure to your registered callback URL.

Note: Callback URL can be configured by the registered Admin or Developer of your Vonage Video API account.

To register a callback:

1. Log in to your Vonage Video API Account.
2. From the left menu, choose the desired Account.
3. Select a Project for which you want to register a session monitoring callback.
4. Scroll down to Project Settings.
5. Under Session Monitoring, click on the button.
6. Configure the callback URL and submit.
   
7. A popup with callback URL configured will appear if the callback is successfully registered.
   
8. If the registered callback URL cannot be reached, a popup with Configuration failure will appear. Double-check your callback URL and the server hosting the URL and Retry.
   

To remove the registered callback:

1. Under Session Monitoring, click Remove.
   
2. Click Confirm Removal to remove the configured session monitoring callback.
