MediaSFU developer docs

Build live rooms, calls and AI agents into your product.

Start with one HTTP request or the prebuilt room. Then restyle it, replace it with your own screens, or run the engine headless. Your room keeps working at every step.

Create a roombash

$ curl -X POST https://mediasfu.com/v1/rooms/ \    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \    -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_USERNAME:$API_KEY" \    -d '{"action": "create", "userName": "host",         "duration": 30, "capacity": 5,         "eventType": "conference"}'200 OK{ "roomName": "m-9f3a2b7c", "secureCode": "A1B2C3",  "publicURL": "https://…" }

Open publicURL in two tabs and you have a live room with camera, microphone, chat and screen sharing.

Choose how much UI you own

Begin with the most complete option that fits. Each step gives you more control, and none of them replaces the room underneath.
