Hi,

can anyone please help me with a sample code snippet to invoke a http url whenever any of RTSP methods such as onPlay(), onPause(), onDescribe(), onAnounce(), onOptions() and onteardown() is triggered ? I want to invoke a URL over http and want to receive its response. Based on the response, i want to control the session. How to achieve this ? Please help me in this regard.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

The HTTPUtils class contains methods that can be used to construct HTTP queries. It’s described in the [Server Side API](https://www.wowza.com/resources/WowzaStreamingEngine_ServerSideAPI.pdf). Or you could construct your own URL. A search of the forums for HTTPRequestToByteArray or URLConnection should provide some examples. [This snippet](https://www.wowza.com/forums/showthread.php?1387-Making-a-HTTP-request&p=6737#post6737) for example has both :).
