Getting started

Install the package

Install the Azure Communication Network Traversal client library for .NET with NuGet:

dotnet add package Azure.Communication.NetworkTraversal --version 1.0.0

Prerequisites

You need an Azure subscription and a Communication Service Resource to use this package.

To create a new Communication Service, you can use the Azure Portal, the Azure PowerShell, or the .NET management client library.

Authenticate the client

The networking client can be authenticated using a connection string acquired from an Azure Communication Resources in the Azure Portal.

// Get a connection string to our Azure Communication resource.
var connectionString = "<connection_string>";
var client = new CommunicationRelayClient(connectionString);

Or alternatively using the endpoint and access key acquired from an Azure Communication Resources in the Azure Portal.

var endpoint = new Uri("https://my-resource.communication.azure.com");
var accessKey = "<access_key>";
var client = new CommunicationRelayClient(endpoint, new AzureKeyCredential(accessKey));

Clients also have the option to authenticate using a valid Active Directory token.

var endpoint = new Uri("https://my-resource.communication.azure.com");
TokenCredential tokenCredential = new DefaultAzureCredential();
var client = new CommunicationRelayClient(endpoint, tokenCredential);

Key concepts

CommunicationRelayClient provides the functionalities to gain STUN/TURN server URLs and credentials for access.

Thread safety

We guarantee that all client instance methods are thread-safe and independent of each other (guideline). This ensures that the recommendation of reusing client instances is always safe, even across threads.

Examples

Getting a Relay Configuration for a user

Response<CommunicationRelayConfiguration> relayConfiguration = await client.GetRelayConfigurationAsync();
DateTimeOffset turnTokenExpiresOn = relayConfiguration.Value.ExpiresOn;
IList<CommunicationIceServer> iceServers = relayConfiguration.Value.IceServers;
Console.WriteLine($"Expires On: {turnTokenExpiresOn}");
foreach (CommunicationIceServer iceServer in iceServers)
{
    foreach (string url in iceServer.Urls)
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"ICE Server Url: {url}");
    }
    Console.WriteLine($"ICE Server Username: {iceServer.Username}");
    Console.WriteLine($"ICE Server Credential: {iceServer.Credential}");
    Console.WriteLine($"ICE Server RouteType: {iceServer.RouteType}");
}

Getting a Relay Configuration for a user with a specified routeType

Response<CommunicationRelayConfiguration> relayConfiguration = await client.GetRelayConfigurationAsync(user,RouteType.Nearest);
DateTimeOffset turnTokenExpiresOn = relayConfiguration.Value.ExpiresOn;
IList<CommunicationIceServer> iceServers = relayConfiguration.Value.IceServers;
Console.WriteLine($"Expires On: {turnTokenExpiresOn}");
foreach (CommunicationIceServer iceServer in iceServers)
{
    foreach (string url in iceServer.Urls)
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"ICE Server Url: {url}");
    }
    Console.WriteLine($"ICE Server Username: {iceServer.Username}");
    Console.WriteLine($"ICE Server Credential: {iceServer.Credential}");
    Console.WriteLine($"ICE Server Route Type: {iceServer.RouteType}");
}
