The RTCIceServer
dictionary's credentialType
property is a string value from the RTCIceCredentialType
enum which indicates what type of credential the RTCIceServer.credential
value is. The default is "password".
Syntax
var iceServer = { ... credentialType = ["password" | "token"], ... }; var credential = iceServer.credentialType; iceServer.credential = ["password" | "token"];
Constants
RTCIceCredentialType enum
The RTCIceCredentialType
enum specifies values which can be returned by the credentialType
property to define what kind of authentication credential is being provided in the RTCIceServer.credential
property. This can be one of the values below.
Constant | Description |
---|---|
"password" |
The credential is a long-term authentication password. See RFC 5389, section 10.2 for further details on this type of credential. |
"token" |
The credential is an access token to be used with a third-party authentication system. |
Example
This example creates a new RTCPeerConnection
which will use a TURN server at turnserver.example.org
to negotiate connections. Logging into the TURN server will use the username "webrtc" and the creative password "turnpassword".
myPeerConnection = new RTCPeerConnection({ iceServers: [ { urls: "turn:turnserver.example.org", // A TURN server username: "webrtc", credential: "turnpassword", credentialType: "password" } ] });
