Server

Fishjam Server provides a REST API for managing rooms and peers, and Protobufs for receiving structured live updates from the server. The notifications can be configured using Webhook or Websocket.

Protobufs

• Server Notification Protobufs
• Agent Message Protobufs

Webhook

When using webhooks for receiving notifications, configure your webhook URL in the Webhooks tab of the Fishjam Dashboard. Fishjam then delivers all notifications to that URL.

The HTTP POST to your webhook URL uses "application/x-protobuf" content type. The body is binary data, that represents encoded ServerMessage.

Setting batchWebhookNotifications to true in the RoomConfig is recommended. Fishjam then coalesces several notifications into one POST: the body is still a single ServerMessage, but its notification_batch field holds a NotificationBatch, which carries the individual notifications as a repeated list of ServerMessages (see server_notifications.proto). This delivers notifications faster and with fewer requests. The SDK decoders unwrap the batch for you.

Websocket

After opening the Websocket connection to https://fishjam.io/api/v1/connect/{fishjamId}/socket/server/websocket, the first message that must be sent is an AuthRequest, with a valid Management Token.

Next, you can should subscribe to notifications by sending SubscribeRequest event with SERVER_NOTIFICATION event type.
