Please note that we don't provide any support for this plugin in the comments section on this page anymore. Please have a look at the github repository of this plugin.

With this integration and the current OpenMeetings version 5.x you can create different types of rooms and separated users in OpenMeetings with the access-level "SOAP-Only". The "SOAP-Only" user can do exactly what is needed to run the integration but nothing more. This does result in no need for any OpenMeetings Admin-User in the Moodle Module config! So you can better protect your OpenMeetings server from non-authorized access via the SOAP Gateway and no need to share confidential account data. "SOAP-Only" users can not login to OpenMeetings administration. OpenMeetings also supports access via https and ldap-/Active Directory- and OAuth2-Integration.

Please NOTE: if you have "Access Denied" message while room entering this might be due to cookies are not being saved in iframe.

To bypass this please edit ${OM_HOME}/webapp/META-INF/context.xml and change

      <CookieProcessor sameSiteCookies="Lax" />

to be

     <CookieProcessor sameSiteCookies="none" />

The latest OpenMeetings Moodle Plugin is for Moodle 3.5 and later and is compatible only with OpenMeetings version 5.x. It is recommended to update to the latest version of OpenMeetings.

Sample Video showing the installation of the Moodle Module and integration with new access level:

The features of the OpenMeetings Moodle Plugin:
- Openmeetings rooms can be displayed inside a Moodle course in a frame, in a new window or can occupy the entire window
- Secure "SOAP-Only" user access level (see documentation on top)
- 3 Moderation Types for Conference Rooms (Moodle admins, teachers and course creators are automatically a moderator):
Moderation Type A) Participants need to wait till the teacher enters the room
Moderation Type B) Participants can already start (first User in room becomes moderator)
Moderation Type C) Every participant is automatically moderator when he/she enters the room
- 3 Room Types (Conference, Interview & Presentation)
- New Flag "Allow Recording": You can set in the room configuration now a flag that controls if the recording button is available or not
- Moodle Module languages: German, French, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Brazilian (OpenMeetings itself has around 30 languages)
- Clear and restructure conference creation form for Moodle moderators

No luck with latest Moodle git version (3.4) and Openmeetings 3.0.0.4 version. It shows only blank white in moodle, no errors in debug, except warning in apache server's log:
"Potential coding error: Unexpected output whilst processing AJAX requ
est. This could be caused by trailing whitespace. Output received: '\r\n', referer: https://*.*.*.*/moodle/course/view.php?id=25".

Hi there I am having difficulty with this plugin...
I am running Moodle 3.7.1(Build: 20190708) with PHP 7.2 and Open Meeting 4.0.8
As a result, I get an error while backing up:

Status - Unfinished
backup_auto_failed_on_course Sandbox
Exception: cannotfindparentidforelement id

When I remove openmeetings from the course, the backup works.

No funciona. Lo instalas exactamente como viene en las instrucciones y te da un error. Además no existe el soporte, el link ese que ponen que se supone que es soporte es mentira. No hay absolutamente ninguna ayuda sobre este plugin.

@Rudi Mulya,
OpenMeetings 4.0.2 is very much outdated, can you check with latest OM (4.0.9 or 5.0.0-M2)?

Additionally you can turn on debug and get more detailed message from plugin
