Hi Fri,

I think I can help your problem. Previous time I also have like your problem. After creatin WebEx meeting by using XML API. Return status is important (SUCCESS or FAILURE). If SUCCESS, you will got the URL Links. But you should use emailInvitatios property to send emails to host and attendees by WebEx Email servce. Please see the example in follow. This example is working well and automatically send the invitatin link to host and attendes.

I think you need to change the meetingType in your coding.
emailInvtations value must be TRUE.

Problem 1

There is two time zone infomation in creating meetng session. One is for webEx meeting and the other one is for attendee. Please see the detail in follow.

For webEx Meetng time zone
You should use timeZoneID property under the schedule.

<schedule>
   <startDate>11/02/2010 13:00:00</startDate>
   <joinTeleconfBeforeHost>false</joinTeleconfBeforeHost>
   <duration>20</duration>
   <timeZoneID>47</timeZoneID>
  </schedule>

For Attendee's time zone
You should use timeZoneID property under the attendee.

<participants>
   <maxUserNumber>4</maxUserNumber>
   <attendees>
    <attendee>
     <person>
      <email>email01@gmail.com</email>
     </person>
     <emailInvitations>TRUE</emailInvitations>
     <timeZoneID>47</timeZoneID>
    </attendee>
    <attendee>
     <person>
      <email>email02@gmail.com</email>
     </person>
     <emailInvitations>TRUE</emailInvitations>
     <timeZoneID>47</timeZoneID>
    </attendee>
   </attendees>
  </participants>

Problem 2

You can enable all the setting by using enableOptions. There are a lot of setting under enableOptions (see in page 696).
For Example:

<enableOptions>
     <chat>TRUE</chat>
     <attendeeList>TRUE</attendeeList>
</enableOptions>

Notes...

Please go and see in page 615 for timeZoneID value information.
In the reference guide ebook, there are a lot of presentatin pictures. Don't just look it. If you click the pictures icon, it will show you what is this, how to use and what is the value you can use in this setting.

If you know how to click the picture in this book, you will be master.

Nay La
