What is New in this Release

This section describes the new features in XML API 9.0.0 SP6.

Meeting Center Email templates have audio password and access code merged information

Emails sent from APIs used for scheduling and updating meetings will provide meeting password and audio access code where applicable. This feature is further enhanced by simplifying the audio numeric code to be based on the meeting’s alphanumeric code. The audio numeric code contains no letters, only numbers. The audio numeric code is now based on the meeting’s alphanumeric code. The letters of the alphanumeric code are converted to numbers based on a letter's location on a standard U.S. phone keypad. If a meeting has an audio password, emails will now show both the meeting password and audio password on the same line in the email rather than in separate sections. The email template variable %MeetingPassword% will be updated to include the numeric meeting password if it exists. The variable %NumericMeetingPasswordHtml% and %NumericMeetingPasswordText% are no longer needed and will be replaced with an empty string.

Note:The XML API does not support localization of email templates.

Affected APIs

  • createMeeting
  • setMeeting
  • registerMeetingAttendee

The email templates are improved to provide more information. See the following table.

Email Template Sent by Subject Line Behavior of Email Template
Meeting Scheduled CreateMeeting Webex meeting scheduled: %Topic% Sent when CreateMeeting called for host. %NumericMeetingPasswordHtml% is sent as an empty string. The XML API has not implemented the audio password for this purpose.
Meeting Rescheduled SetMeeting %ForwardSubjectDesc%Webex meeting rescheduled: %Topic% Sent when SetMeeting called with schedule change for host. If a meeting does not have an audio password, the audio password will not be generated even after the site enforce audio password is turned on. If a meeting does have an audio password, SetMeeting will keep the audio password intact and send the email templates with the %NumericMeetingPasswordHtml% variable replaced appropriately. Previously, there was a bug with the resetting of the audio password. It is fixed in XML API 10.0.0 SP2.
Meeting Invitation CreateMeeting %ForwardSubjectDesc%Webex meeting invitation: %Topic% Sent when CreateMeeting called for invited attendees.
Updated Meeting Invitation SetMeeting %ForwardSubjectDesc%Webex meeting changed: %Topic% Sent when SetMeeting called for newly-added attendees.
Meeting Information Updated RegisterMeetingAttendee Registration approved for Webex meeting: %Topic% Sent when RegisterMeetingAttendee called for registered attendees.
