Object defining the methods that the client is able to call. These are defined by the Connection.role. This object is only defined after Session.connect has been successfully resolved
Local connection to the Session. This object is defined only after Session.connect has been successfully executed, and can be retrieved subscribing to connectionCreated event
Unique identifier of the Session
Collection of all StreamManagers of this Session (Publisher and Subscriber)
Leaves the session, destroying all streams and deleting the user as a participant.
The Session object of the local participant will dispatch a sessionDisconnected event.
This event will automatically unsubscribe the leaving participant from every Subscriber object of the session (this includes closing the RTCPeerConnection and disposing all MediaStreamTracks)
and also deletes any HTML video element associated to each Subscriber (only those created by OpenVidu Browser).
For every video removed, each Subscriber object will dispatch a videoElementDestroyed event.
Call event.preventDefault() upon event sessionDisconnected to avoid this behavior and take care of disposing and cleaning all the Subscriber objects yourself.
See SessionDisconnectedEvent and VideoElementEvent to learn more.
The Publisher object of the local participant will dispatch a streamDestroyed event if there is a Publisher object publishing to the session.
This event will automatically stop all media tracks and delete any HTML video element associated to it (only those created by OpenVidu Browser).
For every video removed, the Publisher object will dispatch a videoElementDestroyed event.
Call event.preventDefault() upon event streamDestroyed if you want to clean the Publisher object on your own or re-publish it in a different Session (to do so it is a mandatory requirement to call Session.unpublish()
or/and Session.disconnect() in the previous session). See StreamEvent and VideoElementEvent to learn more.
The Session object of every other participant connected to the session will dispatch a streamDestroyed event if the disconnected participant was publishing.
This event will automatically unsubscribe the Subscriber object from the session (this includes closing the RTCPeerConnection and disposing all MediaStreamTracks)
and also deletes any HTML video element associated to that Subscriber (only those created by OpenVidu Browser).
For every video removed, the Subscriber object will dispatch a videoElementDestroyed event.
Call event.preventDefault() upon event streamDestroyed to avoid this default behavior and take care of disposing and cleaning the Subscriber object yourself.
See StreamEvent and VideoElementEvent to learn more.
The Session object of every other participant connected to the session will dispatch a connectionDestroyed event in any case. See ConnectionEvent to learn more.
Forces some user to leave the session
The behavior is the same as when some user calls Session.disconnect, but reason property in all events will be "forceDisconnectByUser".
The Session object of every participant will dispatch a streamDestroyed event if the evicted user was publishing a stream, with property reason set to "forceDisconnectByUser".
The Session object of every participant except the evicted one will dispatch a connectionDestroyed event for the evicted user, with property reason set to "forceDisconnectByUser".
If any, the Publisher object of the evicted participant will also dispatch a streamDestroyed event with property reason set to "forceDisconnectByUser".
The Session object of the evicted participant will dispatch a sessionDisconnected event with property reason set to "forceDisconnectByUser".
See StreamEvent, ConnectionEvent and SessionDisconnectedEvent to learn more.
A Promise (to which you can optionally subscribe to) that is resolved only after the participant has been successfully evicted from the session and rejected with an Error object if not
Forces some user to unpublish a Stream
The behavior is the same as when some user calls Session.unpublish, but reason property in all events will be "forceUnpublishByUser"
The Session object of every participant will dispatch a streamDestroyed event with property reason set to "forceDisconnectByUser"
The Publisher object of the affected participant will also dispatch a streamDestroyed event with property reason set to "forceDisconnectByUser"
See StreamEvent to learn more.
A Promise (to which you can optionally subscribe to) that is resolved only after the remote Stream has been successfully unpublished from the session and rejected with an Error object if not
Optionalhandler: (event: SessionEventMap[K]) => voidPublishes to the Session the Publisher object
The local Publisher object will dispatch a streamCreated event upon successful termination of this method. See StreamEvent to learn more.
The local Publisher object will dispatch a streamPlaying once the media stream starts playing. See StreamManagerEvent to learn more.
The Session object of every other participant connected to the session will dispatch a streamCreated event so they can subscribe to it. See StreamEvent to learn more.
A Promise (to which you can optionally subscribe to) that is resolved only after the publisher was successfully published and rejected with an Error object if not
Sends one signal. signal object has the following optional properties:
{data:string, to:Connection[], type:string}
All users subscribed to that signal (session.on('signal:type', ...) or session.on('signal', ...) for all signals) and whose Connection objects are in to array will receive it. Their local
Session objects will dispatch a signal or signal:type event. See SignalEvent to learn more.
A Promise (to which you can optionally subscribe to) that is resolved if the message successfully reached openvidu-server and rejected with an Error object if not. This doesn't mean that openvidu-server could resend the message to all the listed receivers.
Promisified version of Session.subscribe
Promisified version of Session.subscribe
Subscribe to the Speech-To-Text events for this Stream. The Session object will emit SpeechToTextEvent for the Stream when speech is detected in its audio track.
The Stream for which you want to start receiving SpeechToTextEvent.
The language of the Stream's audio track. It must be a valid BCP-47 language tag like "en-US" or "es-ES".
A Promise (to which you can optionally subscribe to) that is resolved if the speech-to-text subscription was successful and rejected with an Error object if not.
Unpublishes from the Session the Publisher object.
The Publisher object of the local participant will dispatch a streamDestroyed event.
This event will automatically stop all media tracks and delete any HTML video element associated to this Publisher
(only those videos created by OpenVidu Browser).
For every video removed, the Publisher object will dispatch a videoElementDestroyed event.
Call event.preventDefault() upon event streamDestroyed if you want to clean the Publisher object on your own or re-publish it in a different Session.
The Session object of every other participant connected to the session will dispatch a streamDestroyed event.
This event will automatically unsubscribe the Subscriber object from the session (this includes closing the RTCPeerConnection and disposing all MediaStreamTracks) and
delete any HTML video element associated to it (only those created by OpenVidu Browser).
For every video removed, the Subscriber object will dispatch a videoElementDestroyed event.
Call event.preventDefault() upon event streamDestroyed to avoid this default behavior and take care of disposing and cleaning the Subscriber object on your own.
See StreamEvent and VideoElementEvent to learn more.
Unsubscribes from subscriber, automatically removing its associated HTML video elements.
The Subscriber object will dispatch a videoElementDestroyed event for each video associated to it that was removed from DOM.
Only videos created by OpenVidu Browser) will be automatically removed

Represents a video call. It can also be seen as a videoconference room where multiple users can connect. Participants who publish their videos to a session can be seen by the rest of users connected to that specific session. Initialized with OpenVidu.initSession method.
