Hi,

I am using wowzStreamConfig.getHostAddress() in android , but the host always returns as null . Everything else is getting created perfectly in cloud.wowza and other parameters return with their respective values. How to solve this issue ?

Thanks

Hello @Raghhav MS

Please review this screenshot on how to set your Wowza Streaming Cloud broadcast details:

Also you need to be using a setter not getter for the Host Address:

wowzStreamConfig.setHostAddress()

Regards,
