What is pexip-command-api?

A guide to Pexip Infinity's command API, a POST-based interface for changing live conferences and participants. It covers actions such as dialing, disconnecting, muting, transferring, and changing layouts.

Use it when adding, changing, or debugging tools that control an in-progress Pexip conference or participant.

It helps developers distinguish immediate actions on an active call from settings that persist, live status checks, and records of completed calls.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00185	$0.01889
Opus 5.5	$0.00074	$0.00756
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00037	$0.00378
Haiku 4.5	$0.00018	$0.00189

Security

Grade A, and why

pexip-command-api scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Pexip Infinity Management — Command API

POST-only API for acting on running conferences and participants. Distinct from:

Configuration API (CRUD on persistent platform objects)
Status API (read-only live state)
History API (post-call CDRs)

Commands are imperative ("disconnect this participant"), not declarative ("delete this VMR").

Base URL

https://<management-node-host>/api/admin/command/v1/<scope>/<command>/

<scope> is typically conference, participant, or platform.
All commands are POST (even read-ish ones — that is the API convention).
Auth, rate limit, schema introspection same as the other admin APIs (Basic over HTTPS, 1,000/60s, …/schema/?format=json).
Response is 200 OK with a small JSON body, often {"status": "success", "data": {...}} or just {"status": "success"}.

Targeting an instance

Most commands need to identify which conference instance or participant to act on. Two patterns appear, depending on the command:

conference_id + participant_id in the POST body — Pexip-internal UUIDs that you obtain from the Status API (/api/admin/status/v1/conference/<id>/ or /participant/<id>/).
conference_name (the dialed alias) in the POST body — for commands that act on the conference as a whole and you only know it by name.

Always introspect the schema (…/schema/?format=json) for the exact required field names per command — they shifted between Pexip versions.

Participant commands

/api/admin/command/v1/participant/<command>/

Command	Effect	Typical body
`dial`	Dial a new participant into a conference.	`conference_alias` (or `destination`), `protocol` (`sip`/`h323`/`mssip`/`rtmp`/`teams`/`gms`/`auto`), `call_type` (`audio`/`video`/`video-only`/`audio-video`), `role` (`chair`/`guest`), `system_location`, `streaming` (bool), `remote_display_name`, `dtmf_sequence`
`disconnect`	Disconnect a single participant.	`participant_id`
`mute` / `unmute`	Audio mute one participant.	`participant_id`
`video_mute` / `video_unmute`	Video mute one participant.	`participant_id`
`set_role`	Change role to `chair` or `guest`.	`participant_id`, `role`
`spotlight_on` / `spotlight_off`	Pin a participant in the layout.	`participant_id`
`transfer`	Move participant to another conference.	`participant_id`, `conference_alias`, optional `role`, `pin`
`dtmf`	Send DTMF tones into the call.	`participant_id`, `digits`
`set_text_overlay`	Display caption text under participant.	`participant_id`, `text`

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
