How to create a BigBlueButton user from another app (straight to Redis?)

Viewed 403

We're building an e-school where we want to create a BigBlueButton user with different rights depending on if a student or teacher signs up.

Can't find an API call nor webhook to create a user so wondering if it's maybe possible to create straight to the DB the user? Redis is used for DB? Or what's the best way to do so.

Also, need to save in our e-school database then the user ID in our users table bbb_user field to be able to assign rooms and meetings to that user via API.

If you have created the meeting, then you can call APIs like this:

join as moderator (teacher)

join as attendee (student)

https://test-install.blindsidenetworks.com/bigbluebutton/api/join?fullName=User+5209488&meetingID=random-6182117&password=ap&redirect=true&checksum=2f68c7e33c4427526807bef3cc2a0ee4ec7c2d62
