I’m trying to integrate with zoom.us, they have their guides here – https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201363053-Meeting-API
When someone schedules a meeting, the scheduler creates a post, which I pick up and call this function:
function scheduler_zoom_integration($post_id) {
$postdata = get_post($post_id);
$appointment_id = get_post_meta( $post_id, '_birs_appointment_id', true );
if (!empty($appointment_id)) {
$conference_details = schedule_meeting();
add_post_meta($appointment_id,'appointment_zoom_details', $conference_details, true);
}
}
add_action('publish_post', 'scheduler_zoom_integration');
Inside that function I call the schedule_meeting function that is using the REST API from zoom to get the meeting details including the link people will click to join the meeting.
function schedule_meeting($coach_id, $appointment_id, $start_time) {
$api_key = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx';
$api_secret = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx';
$coach_zoom_id = get_user_meta($coach_id, 'coachzoomid', true);
$url = 'https://api.zoom.us/v1/meeting/create?api_key='.$api_key.'&api_secret='.$api_secret.'&data_type=JSON&host_id='.$coach_zoom_id.'&topic=health&type=2&start_time='.$start_time.'&duration=30&timezone=GMT-7:00&option_jbh=true&option_start_type=video';
$opts = array(
'http'=>array(
'method'=>"GET",
'header'=>"Accept-language: enrn" .
"Cookie: foo=barrn"
)
);
$context = stream_context_create($opts);
$response = fopen($url, 'r', false, $context);
fpassthru($response);
$response = json_decode($response);
fclose($response);
return $response;
}
I’m looking to get feedback on how I’m performing this function as I’ve never done a REST API before. Should I use fopen / fclose? How do I make the call to begin with? Any help is appreciated.
You should try using WordPress’ built in HTTP API. It has helper functions for doing HTTP calls. I see you’re doing a GET so check out:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_remote_get
Note that it returns WP_Error class on failure.
