Elive::View::Session - Session view and insert/update via ELM 2.x

A session is a consolidated view of meetings, meeting parameters, server parameters and participants.

Creates a new session on an Elluminate server.
use Elive::View::Session;
my $session_start = time();
my $session_end = $session_start + 900;
$session_start .= '000';
$session_end .= '000';
my $preload = Elive::Entity::Preload->upload('c:\\Documents\intro.wbd');
my %session_data = (
name => 'An example session',
facilitatorId => Elive->login->userId,
password => 'example', # what else?
start => $session_start,
end => $session_end,
privateMeeting => 1,
costCenter => 'example',
recordingStatus => 'remote',
raiseHandOnEnter => 1,
maxTalkers => 2,
inSessionInvitation => 1,
boundaryMinutes => 15,
fullPermissions => 1,
supervised => 1,
seats => 2,
participants => [
-moderators => [qw(alice bob)],
-others => '*staff_group'
],
add_preload => $preload
);
my $session = Elive::View::Session->insert( \%session_data );
A series of sessions can be created using the recurrenceCount and recurrenceDays parameters.
#
# create three weekly sessions
#
my @sessions = Elive::View::Session->insert({
...,
recurrenceCount => 3,
recurrenceDays => 7,
});
Updates a previously created session.
$session->seats(5);
$session->update;
...or equivalently...
$session->update({seats => 5});
These methods are available from the base class Elive::Entity::Session.
These attributes are available from the base class Elive::Entity::Session.

The insert() and update() methods in this class rely on older ELM 2.x commands. These do not support a number of newer ELM 3.x features including restricted meetings, invited guests exit URLs and a number of other newer options and flags - these are listed in elive_raise_meeting.
Sites running ELM 3.0 / Elluminate Live 9.5 or newer may want to consider using Elive::Entity::Session, which implements the newer createSession and updateSession commands.
