Step 1: To integrate VideoSDK into your Xcode project using CocoaPods, specify it in your Podfile:

Install via CocoaPods

pod 'VideoSDKRTC'

OR

Install via Github

pod 'VideoSDKRTC', :git => 'https://github.com/videosdk-live/videosdk-rtc-ios-sdk.git'

caution

• Currently this only supports IOS device (arm64). Running on simulator is not supported.
• You will need to set Enable Bitcode to false.

Step 2: Your app needs to add permissions to use microphone and camera. Add below code your app's info.plist

info.plist

<key>NSCameraUsageDescription</key>
<string>Allow camera access to start video.</string>

<key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key>
<string>Allow microphone access to start audio.</string>

Step 3: To integrate VideoSDK into your Xcode project using CocoaPods, specify it in your Podfile:

Start using it in your project

import VideoSDK

// Configure token, fetch it via auth API
VideoSDK.config(token: <server token here>)

// Intialize meeting
let meeting = VideoSDK.initMeeting(
    meetingId: <meetingId>,
    participantId: <participantId>, // optional
    participantName: <your name>,
    micEnabled: true,
    webcamEnabled: true)
