Google Hangouts API: Can I start an “On Air” Hango

问题:

Is there a way to start an "On Air" hangout via the API? I've got my application created and working great, however I need the hangout's embed code for my customers.

I can't seem to find any documentation on how to start a hangout like this via the hangout button. (https://developers.google.com/+/hangouts/button)

回答1:

It is not currently possible to embed a hangout. With the Hangout button, though, the start screen includes the standard checkbox to make the Hangout On Air. developers.google.com/+/hangouts/button

回答2:

You can embed a hangout if you broadcast the hangout "on air" on youtube at the same time.

The embed button is at the top of the hangout.

Simple add following script on your page and create app_id from google console and replace it with hash symbol.

<div id="placeholder-div"></div>

<script>
window.___gcfg = {
  lang: 'en-US'
};

(function() {
  var po = document.createElement('script'); po.type = 'text/javascript'; po.async = true;
  po.src = 'https://apis.google.com/js/platform.js?onload=renderButton';
  var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(po, s);
})();

function renderButton(){
  gapi.hangout.render('placeholder-div', {
      'render': 'createhangout',
      'hangout_type'  :'onair',
      'initial_apps': [
        { app_id : '############', start_data : 'dQw4w9WgXcQ', 'app_type' : 'ROOM_APP' }
      ]
    });
}
</script>
