Settings

The Stream API provides multiple configuration options on the call type level.

You can provide the settings when creating or updating a call type
For maximum flexibility, you can override the settings on the call level when creating or updating a call

Code examples

Settings

client.video.createCallType({
  name: "<call type name>",
  settings: {
    screensharing: {
      access_request_enabled: false,
      enabled: true,
    },
  },
});

// override settings on call level
call.create({
  data: {
    created_by_id: "john",
    settings_override: {
      screensharing: {
        enabled: false,
      },
    },
  },
});

client.video.create_call_type(
  name='<call type name>',
  settings=CallSettingsRequest(
    screensharing=ScreensharingSettingsRequest(
      access_request_enabled=False,
      enabled=True,
    ),
  ),
)

# override settings on call level
call.create(
  data=CallRequest(
    created_by_id='john',
    settings_override=CallSettingsRequest(
      screensharing=ScreensharingSettingsRequest(
        enabled=False,
      ),
    ),
  ),
)

client.Video().CreateCallType(ctx, &getstream.CreateCallTypeRequest{
  Name: "<call type name>",
  Settings: &getstream.CallSettingsRequest{
    Screensharing: &getstream.ScreensharingSettingsRequest{
      AccessRequestEnabled: getstream.PtrTo(false),
      Enabled:              getstream.PtrTo(true),
    },
  },
})

// override settings on call level
call.GetOrCreate(ctx, &getstream.GetOrCreateCallRequest{
  Data: &getstream.CallRequest{
    CreatedByID: getstream.PtrTo("john"),
    SettingsOverride: &getstream.CallSettingsRequest{
      Screensharing: &getstream.ScreensharingSettingsRequest{
        Enabled: getstream.PtrTo(false),
      },

Notification settings

Notification settings can't be overridden on the call level, you can only set these on the call type level.

client.video.createCallType({
  name: "<call type name>",
  notification_settings: {
    enabled: true,
    call_notification: {
      apns: {
        title: "{{ user.display_name }} calls you",
        body: "{{ user.display_name }} calls you",
      },
      enabled: true,
    },
    call_ring: {
      apns: {
