Basic

QuickBlox Video Calling API is built on top of WebRTC. It allows adding real-time video communication features into your app similar to Skype using API easily. The communication is happening between peers representing camera devices. There are two peer types:

Local peer is a device running the app right now.
Remote peer is an opponent device.

Establishing real-time video communication between two peers involves 3 phases:

Signaling. At this phase, the peers’ local IPs and ports where they can be reached (ICE candidates) are exchanged as well as their media capabilities and call session control messages.
Discovery. At this phase, the public IPs and ports at which endpoints can be reached are discovered by STUN/TURN server.
Establishing a connection. At this phase, the data are sent directly to each party of the communication process.

In order to start using Video Calling Module, you need to connect to QuickBlox Chat first. The signaling in the QuickBox WebRTC module is implemented over the XMPP protocol using QuickBlox Chat module. It acts as a signaling transport for Video Calling API.

Please use this WebRTC Video Calling to make the Group Calls with 4 or fewer users. Because of Mesh architecture we use for multi-point where every participant sends and receives its media to all other participants, the current solution supports group calls with up to 4 people.

Visit Key Concepts page to learn the most important QuickBlox concepts.

Before you begin

Register a QuickBlox account. This is a matter of a few minutes and you will be able to use this account to build your apps.
Configure QuickBlox SDK for your app. Check out Setup page for more details.
Create a user session to be able to use QuickBlox functionality. See Authentication page to learn how to do it.
Connect to the Chat server to provide a signaling mechanism for Video Calling API. Follow our Chat page to learn about chat connection settings and configuration.

Initialize WebRTC

To be able to receive incoming video chat calls, you should initialize QBRTCClient and add WebRTC signaling to it.

// add signalling manager
chatService.getVideoChatWebRTCSignalingManager().addSignalingManagerListener(new QBVideoChatSignalingManagerListener() {
    @Override
    public void signalingCreated(QBSignaling signaling, boolean createdLocally) {
    if (!createdLocally) {
        rtcClient.addSignaling(signaling);
    }
}
});

// add signalling manager
chatService.getVideoChatWebRTCSignalingManager().addSignalingManagerListener(new QBVideoChatSignalingManagerListener() {
    @Override
    public void signalingCreated(QBSignaling signaling, boolean createdLocally) {
    if (!createdLocally) {
        rtcClient.addSignaling(signaling);
    }
}
});

// add signalling manager
chatService.videoChatWebRTCSignalingManager.addSignalingManagerListener { signaling, createdLocally ->
    if (!createdLocally) {
        rtcClient.addSignaling(signaling)
    }
}

// configure
QBRTCConfig.setDebugEnabled(true)
QBRTCConfig.setAnswerTimeInterval(answerTimeInterval)
QBRTCConfig.setDisconnectTime(disconnectTimeInterval)
QBRTCConfig.setDialingTimeInterval(dialingTimeInterval)

If you forget to set the Signaling Manager, you will not be able to process calls.

Manage calls

Add SessionCallbacksListener to your QBRTCClient to define session states. Learn more details about the event listener configuration in the Event listener section.

QBRTCClient.getInstance(getApplicationContext()).addSessionCallbacksListener(new QBRTCClientSessionCallbacks() {
    @Override
    public void onReceiveNewSession(QBRTCSession session) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onUserNoActions(QBRTCSession session, Integer integer) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onSessionStartClose(QBRTCSession session) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onUserNotAnswer(QBRTCSession session, Integer integer) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onCallRejectByUser(QBRTCSession session, Integer integer, Map<String, String> map) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onCallAcceptByUser(QBRTCSession session, Integer integer, Map<String, String> map) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onReceiveHangUpFromUser(QBRTCSession session, Integer integer, Map<String, String> map) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onSessionClosed(QBRTCSession session) {

    }
});

QBRTCClient.getInstance(getApplicationContext()).addSessionCallbacksListener(new QBRTCClientSessionCallbacks() {
    @Override
    public void onReceiveNewSession(QBRTCSession session) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onUserNoActions(QBRTCSession session, Integer integer) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onSessionStartClose(QBRTCSession session) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onUserNotAnswer(QBRTCSession session, Integer integer) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onCallRejectByUser(QBRTCSession session, Integer integer, Map<String, String> map) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onCallAcceptByUser(QBRTCSession session, Integer integer, Map<String, String> map) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onReceiveHangUpFromUser(QBRTCSession session, Integer integer, Map<String, String> map) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onSessionClosed(QBRTCSession session) {

    }
});

QBRTCClient.getInstance(applicationContext).addSessionCallbacksListener(object : QBRTCClientSessionCallbacks {
    override fun onReceiveNewSession(session: QBRTCSession?) {

    }

    override fun onUserNoActions(session: QBRTCSession?, integer: Int?) {

    }

    override fun onSessionStartClose(session: QBRTCSession?) {

    }

    override fun onUserNotAnswer(session: QBRTCSession?, integer: Int?) {

    }

    override fun onCallRejectByUser(session: QBRTCSession?, integer: Int?, map: Map<String, String>?) {

    }

    override fun onCallAcceptByUser(session: QBRTCSession?, integer: Int?, map: Map<String, String>?) {

    }

    override fun onReceiveHangUpFromUser(session: QBRTCSession?, integer: Int?, map: Map<String, String>?) {

    }

    override fun onSessionClosed(session: QBRTCSession?) {

    }
})

You can use two another сallbacks to add to QBRTCClient:

QBRTCSessionEventsCallback (with overriding methods) to handle session main events.
QBRTCClientSessionCallbacksImpl to make your own Session Callback Manager.

You should allow QBRTCClient to process calls. To be sure that your app is ready for calls processing and Activity exists, use the following snippet in the Activity class.

rtcClient.prepareToProcessCalls();

Now the application is ready for processing calls.

Local/remote video view

Set up two video chat layouts for remote and local video tracks to be able to show the video.

A remote video track represents a remote peer video stream from a remote camera app. Specify userId for the remote camera app of the remote peer.
A local video track represents a local peer video stream from a local camera app. Specify userId for the local camera app of the local peer.

XML

<com.quickblox.videochat.webrtc.view.QBRTCSurfaceView
    android:id="@+id/remote_video_view"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"/>

<com.quickblox.videochat.webrtc.view.QBRTCSurfaceView
    android:id="@+id/local_video_view"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"/>

QBRTCSurfaceView allows using several views on the screen layout and overlapping each other. This is a good feature for group video calls.

QBRTCSurfaceView is a surface view (it extends org.webrtc.SurfaceViewRenderer class) that renders video track. It has its own lifecycle for rendering. It uses init() method for preparing to render and release() to release resources when the video track does not exist anymore.

QBRTCSurfaceView is automatically initialized after the surface is created (in surfaceCreated() method callback). You can manually initialize QBRTCSurfaceView using EGLContext getting from QBRTCClient. Use this only when Activity is alive and GL resources exist.

QBRTCSurfaceView surfaceView = (QBRTCSurfaceView) findViewById(R.id.remote_video_view);

EglBase eglContext = QBRTCClient.getInstance(getContext()).getEglContext();
surfaceView.init(eglContext.getEglBaseContext(), null);

QBRTCSurfaceView surfaceView = (QBRTCSurfaceView) findViewById(R.id.remote_video_view);

EglBase eglContext = QBRTCClient.getInstance(getContext()).getEglContext();
surfaceView.init(eglContext.getEglBaseContext(), null);

val surfaceView: QBRTCSurfaceView = findViewById(R.id.remote_video_view) as QBRTCSurfaceView

val eglContext = QBRTCClient.getInstance(applicationContext).eglContext
surfaceView.init(eglContext.eglBaseContext, null)

It is allowed to call init() to reinitialize the view only after a previous init()/release() cycle.

Method release() should be called when video track is no more valid, for example, when you receive onConnectionClosedForUser() callback from QBRTCSession or when QBRTCSession is going to close. But you should call release() method before Activity is destroyed and while EGLContext is still valid. If you don’t call this method, the GL resources might leak.

Here are the few methods of the QBRTCSurfaceView:

// set if the video stream should be mirrored or not
surfaceView.setMirror(true);

// set how the video will fill the allowed layout area
surfaceView.setScalingType(RendererCommon.ScalingType.SCALE_ASPECT_FIT);

// request to invalidate view when something has changed
surfaceView.requestLayout();

// releases all related GL resources
surfaceView.release();

// set if the video stream should be mirrored or not
surfaceView.setMirror(true);

// set how the video will fill the allowed layout area
surfaceView.setScalingType(RendererCommon.ScalingType.SCALE_ASPECT_FIT);

// request to invalidate view when something has changed
surfaceView.requestLayout();

// releases all related GL resources
surfaceView.release();

// set if the video stream should be mirrored or not
surfaceView.setMirror(true)

// set how the video will fill the allowed layout area
surfaceView.setScalingType(RendererCommon.ScalingType.SCALE_ASPECT_FIT)

// request to invalidate view when something has changed
surfaceView.requestLayout()

// releases all related GL resources
surfaceView.release()

To render received video track from an opponent, you should have QBRTCSurfaceView, QBRTCVideoTrack and use:

videoTrack.addRenderer(videoView);

To stop rendering video track, you should simply use:

videoTrack.removeRenderer(videoTrack.getRenderer());

Initiate a call

To call other users, you should create a call session with the user first using createNewSessionWithOpponents() method. After that, you can start calling using startCall() method.

// create collection of opponents ID
List<Integer> opponents = new ArrayList<>();
for (QBUser user : users) {
    opponents.add(user.getId());
}

// you can set any string key and value in user info
// then retrieve this data from sessions which is returned in callbacks
// and parse them as you wish
Map<String, String> userInfo = new HashMap<>();
userInfo.put("key", "value");

// there are two call types: Audio or Video Call
QBRTCTypes.QBConferenceType conferenceType = QBRTCTypes.QBConferenceType.QB_CONFERENCE_TYPE_AUDIO;
// or
QBRTCTypes.QBConferenceType conferenceType = QBRTCTypes.QBConferenceType.QB_CONFERENCE_TYPE_VIDEO;

// init session
QBRTCSession session = QBRTCClient.getInstance(this).createNewSessionWithOpponents(opponents, conferenceType);

// start call
session.startCall(userInfo);

// create collection of opponents ID
List<Integer> opponents = new ArrayList<>();
for (QBUser user : users) {
    opponents.add(user.getId());
}

// you can set any string key and value in user info
// then retrieve this data from sessions which is returned in callbacks
// and parse them as you wish
Map<String, String> userInfo = new HashMap<>();
userInfo.put("key", "value");

// there are two call types: Audio or Video Call
QBRTCTypes.QBConferenceType conferenceType = QBRTCTypes.QBConferenceType.QB_CONFERENCE_TYPE_AUDIO;
// or
QBRTCTypes.QBConferenceType conferenceType = QBRTCTypes.QBConferenceType.QB_CONFERENCE_TYPE_VIDEO;

// init session
QBRTCSession session = QBRTCClient.getInstance(this).createNewSessionWithOpponents(opponents, conferenceType);

// start call
session.startCall(userInfo);

// create collection of opponents ID
val opponents = ArrayList<Int>()
for (user in users) {
    opponents.add(user.id)
}

// you can set any string key and value in user info
// then retrieve this data from sessions which is returned in callbacks
// and parse them as you wish
val userInfo = HashMap<String, String>()
userInfo["key"] = "value"

// there are two call types: Audio or Video Call
val conferenceType = QBRTCTypes.QBConferenceType.QB_CONFERENCE_TYPE_AUDIO
// or
val conferenceType = QBRTCTypes.QBConferenceType.QB_CONFERENCE_TYPE_VIDEO

// init session
val session = QBRTCClient.getInstance(this).createNewSessionWithOpponents(opponents, conferenceType)

// start call
session.startCall(userInfo)

Now, your opponents will receive a call request callback onReceiveNewSession() via QBRTCClientSessionCallbacks (read above).

@Override
public void onReceiveNewSession(QBRTCSession session) {
    Map<String, String> userInfo = new HashMap<>();
    userInfo.put("key", "value");

    session.acceptCall(userInfo);
    session.rejectCall(userInfo);
}

@Override
public void onReceiveNewSession(QBRTCSession session) {
    Map<String, String> userInfo = new HashMap<>();
    userInfo.put("key", "value");

    session.acceptCall(userInfo);
    session.rejectCall(userInfo);
}

override fun onReceiveNewSession(session: QBRTCSession?) {
    val userInfo = HashMap<String, String>()
    userInfo["key"] = "value"

    session.acceptCall(userInfo)
    session.rejectCall(userInfo)
}

Accept a call

If you accept an incoming call, your opponent receives an onCallAcceptByUser() callback.

@Override
public void onCallAcceptByUser(QBRTCSession session, Integer userId, Map<String, String> userInfo) {

}

@Override
public void onCallAcceptByUser(QBRTCSession session, Integer userId, Map<String, String> userInfo) {

}

override fun onCallAcceptByUser(session: QBRTCSession?, userId: Int?, userInfo: Map<String, String>?) {

}

Reject a call

If you reject an incoming call, your opponent receives an onCallRejectByUser() callback.

@Override
public void onCallRejectByUser(QBRTCSession session, Integer userId, Map<String, String> userInfo) {

}

@Override
public void onCallRejectByUser(QBRTCSession session, Integer userId, Map<String, String> userInfo) {

}

override fun onCallRejectByUser(session: QBRTCSession?, userId: Int?, userInfo: Map<String, String>?) {

}

Ignore a call

If you neither accept nor reject an incoming call, the caller will receive an appropriate callback after a specific period of time. You can set interval using QBRTCConfig.setAnswerTimeInterval() method.

@Override
public void onUserNotAnswer(QBRTCSession session, Integer userId) {

}

Note

If you are already in the call, you still can receive other incoming requests. You can handle a current call session and use any logic you like to notify the user about incoming call attempts.

Render video stream to view

For managing video tracks, you should use the QBRTCClientVideoTracksCallbacks interface.

session.addVideoTrackCallbacksListener(this);
session.removeVideoTrackCallbacksListener(this);

session.addVideoTrackCallbacksListener(this);
session.removeVideoTrackCallbacksListener(this);

session.addVideoTrackCallbacksListener(this)
session.removeVideoTrackCallbacksListener(this)

new QBRTCClientVideoTracksCallbacks() {
    @Override
    public void onLocalVideoTrackReceive(BaseSession session, QBRTCVideoTrack videoTrack) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onRemoteVideoTrackReceive(BaseSession session, QBRTCVideoTrack videoTrack, Integer userId) {

    }
}

new QBRTCClientVideoTracksCallbacks() {
    @Override
    public void onLocalVideoTrackReceive(BaseSession session, QBRTCVideoTrack videoTrack) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onRemoteVideoTrackReceive(BaseSession session, QBRTCVideoTrack videoTrack, Integer userId) {

    }
}

object : QBRTCClientVideoTracksCallbacks<QBRTCSession> {
    override fun onLocalVideoTrackReceive(session: QBRTCSession?, videoTrack: QBRTCVideoTrack?) {

    }

    override fun onRemoteVideoTrackReceive(session: QBRTCSession?, videoTrack: QBRTCVideoTrack?, userId: Int?) {

    }
}

Once you’ve got an access to video track, you can render them to some view in your app UI.

private void fillVideoView(QBRTCSurfaceView videoView, QBRTCVideoTrack videoTrack) {
    // to remove renderer if Video Track already has another one
    videoTrack.cleanUp();

    if (videoView != null) {
        videoTrack.addRenderer(videoView);
        updateVideoView(videoView);
    }
}

private void updateVideoView(SurfaceViewRenderer videoView) {
    RendererCommon.ScalingType scalingType = RendererCommon.ScalingType.SCALE_ASPECT_FILL;
    videoView.setScalingType(scalingType);
    videoView.setMirror(false);
    videoView.requestLayout();
}

private void fillVideoView(QBRTCSurfaceView videoView, QBRTCVideoTrack videoTrack) {
    // to remove renderer if Video Track already has another one
    videoTrack.cleanUp();

    if (videoView != null) {
        videoTrack.addRenderer(videoView);
        updateVideoView(videoView);
    }
}

private void updateVideoView(SurfaceViewRenderer videoView) {
    RendererCommon.ScalingType scalingType = RendererCommon.ScalingType.SCALE_ASPECT_FILL;
    videoView.setScalingType(scalingType);
    videoView.setMirror(false);
    videoView.requestLayout();
}

private fun fillVideoView(videoView: QBRTCSurfaceView?, videoTrack: QBRTCVideoTrack) {
    // To remove renderer if Video Track already has another one
    videoTrack.cleanUp()

    if (videoView != null) {
        videoTrack.addRenderer(videoView)
        updateVideoView(videoView)
    }
}

private fun updateVideoView(videoView: SurfaceViewRenderer) {
    val scalingType = RendererCommon.ScalingType.SCALE_ASPECT_FILL
    videoView.setScalingType(scalingType)
    videoView.setMirror(false)
    videoView.requestLayout()
}}

Obtain audio tracks

For managing audio tracks, you should use the QBRTCClientAudioTracksCallback interface.

session.addAudioTrackCallbacksListener(this);
session.removeAudioTrackCallbacksListener(this);

session.addAudioTrackCallbacksListener(this);
session.removeAudioTrackCallbacksListener(this);

session.addAudioTrackCallbacksListener(this)
session.removeAudioTrackCallbacksListener(this)

new QBRTCClientAudioTracksCallback() {
    @Override
    public void onLocalAudioTrackReceive(BaseSession session, QBRTCAudioTrack audioTrack) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onRemoteAudioTrackReceive(BaseSession session, QBRTCAudioTrack audioTrack, Integer userId) {

    }
}

new QBRTCClientAudioTracksCallback() {
    @Override
    public void onLocalAudioTrackReceive(BaseSession session, QBRTCAudioTrack audioTrack) {

    }

    @Override
    public void onRemoteAudioTrackReceive(BaseSession session, QBRTCAudioTrack audioTrack, Integer userId) {

    }
}

object : QBRTCClientAudioTracksCallback<QBRTCSession>{
    override fun onLocalAudioTrackReceive(session: QBRTCSession?, audioTrack: QBRTCAudioTrack?) {

    }

    override fun onRemoteAudioTrackReceive(session: QBRTCSession?, audioTrack: QBRTCAudioTrack?, userId: Int?) {

    }
}

Then you can use these audio tracks to mute/unmute audio.

End a call

To end a call, use thehangUp()method.

Map<String, String> userInfo = new HashMap<>();
userInfo.put("key", "value");

session.hangUp(userInfo);

Map<String, String> userInfo = new HashMap<>();
userInfo.put("key", "value");

session.hangUp(userInfo);

val userInfo = HashMap<String, String>()
userInfo["key"] = "value"

session.hangUp(userInfo)

After this, the call session is going to close and your opponent will receive an onReceiveHangUpFromUser() callback.

@Override
public void onReceiveHangUpFromUser(QBRTCSession session, Integer userId, Map<String, String> userInfo) {

}

@Override
public void onReceiveHangUpFromUser(QBRTCSession session, Integer userId, Map<String, String> userInfo) {

}

override fun onReceiveHangUpFromUser(session: QBRTCSession?, userId: Int?, userInfo: Map<String, String>?) {

}

Release resource

When you don’t want to receive and process video calls, for example, when a user is logged out, you have to destroy QBRTCClient. Call the destroy() method to unregister from receiving any video chat events and close existing signaling channels.

QBRTCClient.getInstance(this).destroy();

Event listener

To process events such as incoming call, call reject, hang up, etc. you need to set up the event listener. The event listener processes various events that happen with call session or peer connection in your app.

Using the callbacks provided by the event listener, you can implement and execute the event-related processing code. For example, the onCallAcceptByUser callback of QBRTCClient is received when a call has been accepted. This callback receives information about the call session, user ID who accepted the call, and additional key-value data about the user.

QuickBlox Android SDK persistently interacts with the server via XMPP connection that works as a signaling transport for establishing a call between two or more peers. It receives the callbacks of the asynchronous events which happen with the call and peer connection. This allows you to track these events and build your own video calling features around them.

To track call session events, you should use SessionCallbacksListener. The inherited event listeners for a call session are QBRTCClientSessionCallback and QBRTCSessionConnectionCallbacks.

QBRTCClientSessionCallback

The supported call session event callbacks of QBRTCClientSessionCallback along with their parameters as well as shows how to add the listener.

Method	Invoked when
onReceiveNewSession()	A new call session has been received.
onCallAcceptByUser()	A call session has been accepted.
onCallRejectByUser()	A call session has been rejected.
onReceiveHangUpFromUser()	An accepted call session has been ended by the peer by pressing the hang-up button.
onUserNotAnswer()	A remote peer did not respond to your call within the timeout period.
onUserNoActions()	A user didn’t take any actions on the received call session.
onSessionStartClose()	A call session is going to be closed.
onSessionClosed()	A call session has been closed.

The following code lists all supported event callbacks for a call session along with their parameters as well as shows how to add the listener.

QBRTCClient.getInstance(this).addSessionCallbacksListener(new QBRTCClientSessionCallbacks() {
   @Override
   public void onReceiveNewSession(QBRTCSession session) {

   }

   @Override
   public void onUserNoActions(QBRTCSession session, Integer userId) {

   }

   @Override
   public void onReceiveHangUpFromUser(QBRTCSession session, Integer userID, Map<String, String> userInfo) {

   }

   @Override

});

QBRTCClient.getInstance(this).addSessionCallbacksListener(new QBRTCClientSessionCallbacks() {
   @Override

   }

   @Override
   public void onCallAcceptByUser(QBRTCSession session, Integer userID, Map<String, String> userInfo) {

   }

   @Override
   public void onReceiveHangUpFromUser(QBRTCSession session, Integer userID, Map<String, String> userInfo) {

   }

   @Override
   public void onSessionClosed(QBRTCSession session) {

   }
});

QBRTCClient.getInstance(this).addSessionCallbacksListener(object : QBRTCClientSessionCallbacks {
    override fun onReceiveNewSession(session: QBRTCSession?) {

    }

    override fun onUserNoActions(session: QBRTCSession?, userId: Int?) {

    }

    override fun onSessionStartClose(session: QBRTCSession?) {

    }

    override fun onUserNotAnswer(session: QBRTCSession?, userId: Int?) {

    }

    override fun onCallRejectByUser(session: QBRTCSession?, userId: Int?, userInfo: MutableMap<String, String>?) {

    }

    override fun onCallAcceptByUser(session: QBRTCSession?, userId: Int?, userInfo: MutableMap<String, String>?) {

    }

    override fun onReceiveHangUpFromUser(session: QBRTCSession?, userId: Int?, userInfo: MutableMap<String, String>?) {

    }

    override fun onSessionClosed(session: QBRTCSession?) {

    }
})

QBRTCSessionConnectionCallbacks

The supported call session event callbacks of QBRTCSessionConnectionCallbacks listener are listed in the table below.

Method	Invoked when
onStateChanged	A call session connection state has been changed in real-time. View all available call session states in the Call session states section.
onStartConnectToUser	A connection establishment process has been started.
onConnectedToUser	A peer connection has been established.
onConnectionFailedWithUser	A peer connection has failed.
onDisconnectedFromUser	A connection was terminated.
onDisconnectedTimeoutFromUser	An opponent has been disconnected by timeout.
onConnectionClosedForUser	A connection has been closed for the user.

The following code lists all supported event callbacks for a call session along with their parameters as well as shows how to add the listener.

session.addSessionCallbacksListener(new QBRTCSessionConnectionCallbacks() {

Call session states

The following table lists all supported call session connection states.

State	Description
QB_RTC_SESSION_NEW	A call session was successfully created and ready for the next step.
QB_RTC_SESSION_PENDING	A call session is in a pending state for other actions to occur.
QB_RTC_SESSION_CONNECTING	The call session is in the progress of establishing a connection.
QB_RTC_SESSION_GOING_TO_CLOSE	A call session is going to be closed.
QB_RTC_SESSION_CLOSED	A call session has been closed.

Peer connection states

To get peer connection state for a particular peer, use the code snippet below.

QBRTCSession session = WebRtcSessionManager.getInstance(getApplicationContext()).getCurrentSession();
QBRTCTypes.QBRTCConnectionState peerConnectionState = session.getPeerConnection(userId).getState();

QBRTCSession session = WebRtcSessionManager.getInstance(getApplicationContext()).getCurrentSession();
QBRTCTypes.QBRTCConnectionState peerConnectionState = session.getPeerConnection(userId).getState();

val session = WebRtcSessionManager.getInstance(applicationContext).currentSession
val peerConnectionState = session.getPeerConnection(userId).state

The following table lists all supported peer connection states.

State	Description
QB_RTC_CONNECTION_UNKNOWN	A peer connection state is unknown. This can occur when none of the other states are fit for the current situation.
QB_RTC_CONNECTION_NEW	A peer connection has been created and has not done any networking yet.
QB_RTC_CONNECTION_WAIT	A peer connection is in a waiting state.
QB_RTC_CONNECTION_PENDING	A peer connection is in a pending state for other actions to occur.
QB_RTC_CONNECTION_CONNECTING	One or more of the ICE transports are currently in the process of establishing a connection.
QB_RTC_CONNECTION_CHECKING	The ICE agent has been given one or more remote candidates and is checking pairs of local and remote candidates against one another to try to find a compatible match, but has not yet found a pair which will allow the peer connection to be made. It is possible that the gathering of candidates is also still underway.
QB_RTC_CONNECTION_CONNECTED	A usable pairing of local and remote candidates has been found for all components of the connection, and the connection has been established.
QB_RTC_CONNECTION_DISCONNECTED	A peer has been disconnected from the call session. But the call session is still open and the peer can be reconnected to the call session.
QB_RTC_CONNECTION_DISCONNECT_TIMEOUT	The peer connection was disconnected by the timeout.
QB_RTC_CONNECTION_CLOSED	A peer connection was closed. But the call session can still be open because there can several peer connections in a single call session. The ICE agent for this peer connection has shut down and is no longer handling requests.
QB_RTC_CONNECTION_NOT_ANSWER	No answer received from the remote peer.
QB_RTC_CONNECTION_REJECT	An incoming call has been rejected by the remote peer without accepting the call.
QB_RTC_CONNECTION_HANG_UP	The connection was hung up by the remote peer.
QB_RTC_CONNECTION_FAILED	One or more of the ICE transports on the connection is in the failed state. This can occur in different circumstances, for example, bad network, etc.
QB_RTC_CONNECTION_ERROR	A peer connection has an error.
