Add Screen Sharing to Your Application

PurpleCallio adds browser-native screen sharing to calling experiences through its hosted UI, React components, and headless SDK.

Select a stage to understand the workflow.

1. Create and manage the call from trusted backend code.
2. Issue participant-specific access as part of your application flow.
3. Connect participants through hosted UI, React components, or the headless SDK.
4. Use your product UI to manage media controls and call state.

Participants select what to share through their browser's permission flow. Your interface can make the action available while the browser controls the final selection.

Screen sharing can be used alongside a call and is tracked as its own participant-minute usage category.

PurpleCallio supports REST API call management, WebSocket signaling, authentication, TURN relay, camera and microphone controls, device selection, and screen sharing where applicable.

Compare the three integration surfaces, their responsibilities, and a copyable starting point.

import { PurpleCallioClient } from "@purplecallio/sdk";

const client = new PurpleCallioClient({ apiKey: process.env.PURPLECALLIO_API_KEY! });
const call = await client.createCall({ callerId, receiverId });
redirect(call.callerUrl);

• Remote education
• Collaborative workflows

Keep API keys on your server and issue only participant-specific access to clients. Webhook requests should be verified before your application processes them. Usage is measured in participant-minutes; see pricing for allowances and current rates.
