Can you help or correct me, if I am missing any syntax?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

There is an uncaught exception that is throwing a null point error when a required value is missing in this request, attendeeEmail. There is an open bug report on this, and it will be addressed in a future release. You just need to add the required attendeeEmail element and value to get a working join link for that specific attendee.

I can reproduce what you're seeing, at least on the apidemoeu.webex.com site. It works fine if you include only <sessionKey> in the body.

As I don't think you can have unique URLs per meeting per user (or per password, region, etc.) I'm not sure that anything other than <sessionKey> makes sense for the request...? What is the scenario where you need to specify the extra <attendeeName> field?

Given if true, the docs probably need to be updated to remove those extraneous elements, and the API should maybe give a more useful error if invalid fields are present.

Might suggest opening a ticket via email/portal here: https://developer.webex.com/support where they can open a defect and track/notify you on update.

Thank you @nmorrow.

It's working fine now.
