sending endpoint text message Error: Channel support is disabled

This Issue tracker is only for reporting bugs and tracking code related issues.

I am attempting to send a message via Jitsi

Description

`var domain = ‘beta.meet.jit.si’ //‘meet.jit.si’ var options = { roomName: ‘fry_room’, width: 490, height: 470, parentNode: jitsi_id // document.querySelector(‘#meet’) } var api = new JitsiMeetExternalAPI(domain, options) function text_listener(data){ console.log("got text data: " + JSON.stringify(data)) } api.addEventListener(‘endpointTextMessageReceived’, text_listener); api.executeCommand(‘sendEndpointTextMessage’, api._myUserID, ‘programmatic text’);

Current behavior

Text does not show up in the local or remote gui but rather errors with: Logger.js:154 2020-04-11T17:53:23.026Z [modules/API/API.js] <Object.send-endpoint-text-message>: Failed sending endpoint text message Error: Channel support is disabled! at t.value (VM1479 lib-jitsi-meet.min.js:1) at oe.sendEndpointMessage (VM1479 lib-jitsi-meet.min.js:10) at Object.sendEndpointMessage (VM1480 app.bundle.min.js:126) at Object.send-endpoint-text-message (VM1480 app.bundle.min.js:126) at b.on (VM1480 app.bundle.min.js:126) at n.size.n.forEach.e (VM1480 app.bundle.min.js:29) at Set.forEach () at p.emit (VM1480 app.bundle.min.js:29) at p._onMessageReceived (VM1480 app.bundle.min.js:29) at postis.listen.e (VM1480 app.bundle.min.js:29) at u (VM1480 app.bundle.min.js:152)

Expected Behavior

Seeing the text in the GUI on both the sender and the reciever. Seeing my text_listener function called.

Possible Solution

See description, but I don’t really care if that’s the approach. Any way I can send a text message via Jitsi from one jitsi client to another, both “broadcase” to all participants, and to target it to one participant would be great.

Steps to reproduce

See description

Doesn’t work for me - same exception. I tried configOverwrite: { openBridgeChannel: 'datachannel' } (also tried passing ‘true’) and beta.meet.jit.si.

EDIT: works for me! - silly mistake 😉

Hi @wuttke! What was your mistake? Having the same problem right now.
