IRtcEngine
The basic interface of the Agora SDK that implements the core functions of real-time communication.
IRtcEngine provides the main methods that your app can call.
Before calling other APIs, you must call CreateAgoraRtcEngine to create an IRtcEngine object.
InitEventHandler
Adds event handlers
public abstract int InitEventHandler(IRtcEngineEventHandler engineEventHandler);
Details
The SDK uses the IRtcEngineEventHandler class to send callbacks to the app. The app inherits the methods of this class to receive these callbacks. All methods in this class have default (empty) implementations. Therefore, apps only need to inherits callbacks according to the scenarios. In the callbacks, avoid time-consuming tasks or calling APIs that can block the thread, such as the SendStreamMessage method. Otherwise, the SDK may not work properly.
Parameters
- engineEventHandler
- Callback events to be added. See IRtcEngineEventHandler.
Returns
- 0: Success.
- < 0: Failure.
AddVideoWatermark [1/2]
Adds a watermark image to the local video.
public abstract int AddVideoWatermark(RtcImage watermark);
Details
- Deprecated:
- This method is deprecated. Use AddVideoWatermark [2/2] instead.
This method adds a PNG watermark image to the local video stream in a live streaming session. Once the watermark image is added, all the users in the channel (CDN audience included) and the video capturing device can see and capture it. If you only want to add a watermark to the CDN live streaming, see StartRtmpStreamWithTranscoding.
- The URL descriptions are different for the local video and CDN live streaming: In a local video stream, URL refers to the absolute path of the added watermark image file in the local video stream. In a CDN live stream, URL refers to the URL address of the added watermark image in the CDN live streaming.
- The source file of the watermark image must be in the PNG file format. If the width and height of the PNG file differ from your settings in this method, the PNG file will be cropped to conform to your settings.
- The Agora SDK supports adding only one watermark image onto a local video or CDN live stream. The newly added watermark image replaces the previous one.
Parameters
- watermark
- The watermark image to be added to the local live streaming: RtcImage.
Returns
- 0: Success.
- < 0: Failure.
AddVideoWatermark [2/2]
Adds a watermark image to the local video.
public abstract int AddVideoWatermark(string watermarkUrl, WatermarkOptions options);
Details
This method adds a PNG watermark image to the local video in the live streaming. Once the watermark image is added, all the audience in the channel (CDN audience included), and the capturing device can see and capture it. The Agora SDK supports adding only one watermark image onto a local video or CDN live stream. The newly added watermark image replaces the previous one.
- If the orientation mode of the encoding video (ORIENTATION_MODE) is fixed landscape mode or the adaptive landscape mode, the watermark uses the landscape orientation.
- If the orientation mode of the encoding video (ORIENTATION_MODE) is fixed portrait mode or the adaptive portrait mode, the watermark uses the portrait orientation.
- When setting the watermark position, the region must be less than the dimensions set in the SetVideoEncoderConfiguration method; otherwise, the watermark image will be cropped.
- Ensure that calling this method after EnableVideo.
- If you only want to add a watermark to the media push, you can call this method or the StartRtmpStreamWithTranscoding method.
- This method supports adding a watermark image in the PNG file format only. Supported pixel formats of the PNG image are RGBA, RGB, Palette, Gray, and Alpha_gray.
- If the dimensions of the PNG image differ from your settings in this method, the image will be cropped or zoomed to conform to your settings.
- If you have enabled the mirror mode for the local video, the watermark on the local video is also mirrored. To avoid mirroring the watermark, Agora recommends that you do not use the mirror and watermark functions for the local video at the same time. You can implement the watermark function in your application layer.
Parameters
- watermarkUrl
- The local file path of the watermark image to be added. This method supports adding a watermark image from the local absolute or relative file path.
- options
- The options of the watermark image to be added. See WatermarkOptions.

Dispose
Releases the IRtcEngine instance.
public abstract void Dispose(bool sync = false);
Details
This method releases all resources used by the Agora SDK. Use this method for apps in which users occasionally make voice or video calls. When users do not make calls, you can free up resources for other operations.
After a successful method call, you can no longer use any method or callback in the SDK anymore. If you want to use the real-time communication functions again, you must call CreateAgoraRtcEngine and Initialize to create a new IRtcEngine instance.
- This method can be called synchronously. You need to wait for the resource of IRtcEngine to be released before performing other operations (for example, create a new IRtcEngine object). Therefore, Agora recommends calling this method in the child thread to avoid blocking the main thread.
- Besides, Agora does not recommend you calling Dispose in any callback of the SDK. Otherwise, the SDK cannot release the resources until the callbacks return results, which may result in a deadlock.
Parameters
- sync
-
Whether the method is called synchronously:
true
: Synchronous call.false
: Asynchronous call. Currently this method only supports synchronous calls. Do not set this parameter to this value.
EnableAudio

Call timing
This method can be called either before or after joining the channel. It is still valid after one leaves channel.
Restrictions
- Calling this method will reset the entire engine, resulting in a slow response time. You can use the following methods to independently control a specific function of the audio module based on your actual needs:
- EnableLocalAudio: Whether to enable the microphone to create the local audio stream.
- MuteLocalAudioStream: Whether to publish the local audio stream.
- MuteRemoteAudioStream: Whether to subscribe and play the remote audio stream.
- MuteAllRemoteAudioStreams: Whether to subscribe to and play all remote audio streams.
- A successful call of this method resets EnableLocalAudio, MuteRemoteAudioStream, and MuteAllRemoteAudioStreams. Proceed it with caution.
Returns
- 0: Success.
- < 0: Failure.

JoinChannel [1/2]
Joins a channel.
public abstract int JoinChannel(string token, string channelId, string info = "", uint uid = 0);
By default, the user subscribes to the audio and video streams of all the other users in the channel, giving rise to usage and billings. To stop subscribing to a specified stream or all remote streams, call the corresponding mute methods.
Call timing
Call this method after Initialize.
Restrictions
- This method only supports users joining one channel at a time.
- Users with different App IDs cannot call each other.
- Before joining a channel, ensure that the App ID you use to generate a token is the same as that you pass in the Initialize method; otherwise, you may fail to join the channel with the token.
Parameters
- token
- The token generated on your server for authentication. See .Note:
- (Recommended) If your project has enabled the security mode (using APP ID and Token for authentication), this parameter is required.
- If you have only enabled the testing mode (using APP ID for authentication), this parameter is optional. You will automatically exit the channel 24 hours after successfully joining in.
- If you need to join different channels at the same time or switch between channels, Agora recommends using a wildcard token so that you don't need to apply for a new token every time joining a channel. See Secure authentication with tokens.
- channelId
-
The channel name. This parameter signifies the channel in which users engage in real-time audio and video interaction. Under the premise of the same App ID, users who fill in the same channel ID enter the same channel for audio and video interaction. The string length must be less than 64 bytes. Supported characters (89 characters in total):
- All lowercase English letters: a to z.
- All uppercase English letters: A to Z.
- All numeric characters: 0 to 9.
- "!", "#", "$", "%", "&", "(", ")", "+", "-", ":", ";", "<", "=", ".", ">", "?", "@", "[", "]", "^", "_", "{", "}", "|", "~", ","
- info
- (Optional) Reserved for future use.
- uid
- The user ID. This parameter is used to identify the user in the channel for real-time audio and video interaction. You need to set and manage user IDs yourself, and ensure that each user ID in the same channel is unique. This parameter is a 32-bit unsigned integer. The value range is 1 to 232-1. If the user ID is not assigned (or set to 0), the SDK assigns a random user ID and OnJoinChannelSuccess returns it in the callback. Your application must record and maintain the returned user ID, because the SDK does not do so.
Returns
- 0: Success.
- < 0: Failure.
- -2: The parameter is invalid. For example, the token is invalid, the uid parameter is not set to an integer, or the value of a member in ChannelMediaOptions is invalid. You need to pass in a valid parameter and join the channel again.
- -3: Fails to initialize the IRtcEngine object. You need to reinitialize the IRtcEngine object.
- -7: The IRtcEngine object has not been initialized. You need to initialize the IRtcEngine object before calling this method.
- -8: The internal state of the IRtcEngine object is wrong. The typical cause is that after calling StartEchoTest to start a call loop test, you call this method to join the channel without calling StopEchoTest to stop the test. You need to call StopEchoTest before calling this method.
- -17: The request to join the channel is rejected. The typical cause is that the user is already in the channel. Agora recommends that you use the OnConnectionStateChanged callback to see whether the user is in the channel. Do not call this method to join the channel unless you receive the CONNECTION_STATE_DISCONNECTED(1) state.
- -102: The channel name is invalid. You need to pass in a valid channel name in channelId to rejoin the channel.
- -121: The user ID is invalid. You need to pass in a valid user ID in uid to rejoin the channel.

PreloadChannel
Preloads a channel with token, channelId, and uid.
public abstract int PreloadChannel(string token, string channelId, uint uid);
When audience members need to switch between different channels frequently, calling the method can help shortening the time of joining a channel, thus reducing the time it takes for audience members to hear and see the host.
If you join a preloaded channel, leave it and want to rejoin the same channel, you do not need to call this method unless the token for preloading the channel expires.
Call timing
To improve the user experience of preloading channels, Agora recommends that before joining the channel, calling this method as early as possible once confirming the channel name and user information.
Restrictions
- When calling this method, ensure you set the user role as audience and do not set the audio scenario as AUDIO_SCENARIO_CHORUS, otherwise, this method does not take effect.
- You also need to make sure that the channel name, user ID and token passed in for preloading are the same as the values passed in when joinning the channel, otherwise, this method does not take effect.
- One IRtcEngine instance supports preloading 20 channels at most. When exceeding this limit, the latest 20 preloaded channels take effect.
Parameters
- token
- The token generated on your server for authentication. See .When the token for preloading channels expires, you can update the token based on the number of channels you preload.
- When preloading one channel, calling this method to pass in the new token.
- When preloading more than one channels:
- If you use a wildcard token for all preloaded channels, call UpdatePreloadChannelToken to update the token.Note: When generating a wildcard token, ensure the user ID is not set as 0. See Secure authentication with tokens.
- If you use different tokens to preload different channels, call this method to pass in your user ID, channel name and the new token.
- If you use a wildcard token for all preloaded channels, call UpdatePreloadChannelToken to update the token.
- channelId
- The channel name that you want to preload. This parameter signifies the channel in which users engage in real-time audio and video interaction. Under the premise of the same App ID, users who fill in the same channel ID enter the same channel for audio and video interaction. The string length must be less than 64 bytes. Supported characters (89 characters in total):
- All lowercase English letters: a to z.

By default,the SDK sets the user role as audience. You can call this method to set the user role as host. The user role (roles) determines the users' permissions at the SDK level, including whether they can publish audio and video streams in a channel.
The difference between this method and SetClientRole [1/2] is that, the former supports setting the audienceLatencyLevel. audienceLatencyLevel needs to be used together with role to determine the level of service that users can enjoy within their permissions. For example, an audience member can choose to receive remote streams with low latency or ultra-low latency. Latency of different levels differ in billing. See .
Call timing
You can call this method either before or after joining a channel.
If you call this method to set the user role as the host before joining the channel and call the SetEnable method to enable video rendering, the local video preview is automatically enabled when the user joins the channel.
If you call this method to set the user role after joining a channel, the SDK will automatically call the MuteLocalAudioStream and MuteLocalVideoStream method to change the state for publishing audio and video streams.
Restrictions
When the user role is set to host, the audience latency level can only be set to AUDIENCE_LATENCY_LEVEL_ULTRA_LOW_LATENCY.
When calling this method before joining a channel and setting the role to BROADCASTER, the OnClientRoleChanged callback will not be triggered on the local client.
Parameters
- role
- The user role. See CLIENT_ROLE_TYPE.
Note: If you set the user role as an audience member, you cannot publish audio and video streams in the channel. If you want to publish media streams in a channel during live streaming, ensure you set the user role as broadcaster.
- options
- The detailed options of a user, including the user level. See ClientRoleOptions.
Returns
- 0: Success.
- < 0: Failure.
- -1: A general error occurs (no specified reason).
- -2: The parameter is invalid.
- -5: The request is rejected.
- -7: The SDK is not initialized.
SetCloudProxy
Sets up cloud proxy service.
public abstract int SetCloudProxy(CLOUD_PROXY_TYPE proxyType);
Details
When users' network access is restricted by a firewall, configure the firewall to allow specific IP addresses and ports provided by Agora; then, call this method to enable the cloud proxyType and set the cloud proxy type with the proxyType parameter.
After successfully connecting to the cloud proxy, the SDK triggers the OnConnectionStateChanged (CONNECTION_STATE_CONNECTING, CONNECTION_CHANGED_SETTING_PROXY_SERVER) callback.
To disable the cloud proxy that has been set, call the SetCloudProxy(NONE_PROXY)
.
To change the cloud proxy type that has been set, call the SetCloudProxy(NONE_PROXY)
first, and then call the SetCloudProxy to set the proxyType you want.
- Agora recommends that you call this method after joining a channel.
- When a user is behind a firewall and uses the Force UDP cloud proxy, the services for Media Push and cohosting across channels are not available.
- When you use the Force TCP cloud proxy, note that an error would occur when calling the StartAudioMixing [2/2] method to play online music files in the HTTP protocol. The services for Media Push and cohosting across channels use the cloud proxy with the TCP protocol.
Parameters
- proxyType
-
The type of the cloud proxy. See CLOUD_PROXY_TYPE.
This parameter is mandatory. The SDK reports an error if you do not pass in a value.
Returns
- 0: Success.

SetLoopbackDevice
Sets the loopback device.
public abstract int SetLoopbackDevice(string deviceId);
Details
The SDK uses the current playback device as the loopback device by default. If you want to specify another audio device as the loopback device, call this method, and set deviceId to the loopback device you want to specify.
You can call this method to change the audio route currently being used, but this does not change the default audio route. For example, if the default audio route is microphone, you call this method to set the audio route as a sound card before joinging a channel and then start a device test, the SDK conducts device test on the sound card. After the device test is completed and you join a channel, the SDK still uses the microphone for audio capturing.
This method is for Windows and macOS only.
The scenarios where this method is applicable are as follows:
- If the loopback device is set as the Bluetooth headset, the SDK publishes the music in app A to the remote end.
- If the loopback device is set as the speaker, the SDK does not publish the music in app A to the remote end.
- If you set the loopback device as the Bluetooth headset, and then use a wired headset to play the music in app A, you need to call this method again, set the loopback device as the wired headset, and the SDK continues to publish the music in app A to remote end.
Parameters

You can call this method to enable the color enhancement feature and set the options of the color enhancement effect.
- Call this method after calling EnableVideo.
- Dark light enhancement has certain requirements for equipment performance. The low-light enhancement feature has certain performance requirements on devices. If your device overheats after you enable low-light enhancement, Agora recommends modifying the low-light enhancement options to a less performance-consuming level or disabling low-light enhancement entirely.
- Both this method and SetExtensionProperty can turn on low-light enhancement:
- When you use the SDK to capture video, Agora recommends this method (this method only works for video captured by the SDK).
- When you use an external video source to implement custom video capture, or send an external video source to the SDK, Agora recommends using SetExtensionProperty.
- This method relies on the image enhancement dynamic library
libagora_clear_vision_extension.dll
. If the dynamic library is deleted, the function cannot be enabled normally.
Parameters
- enabled
- Whether to enable low-light enhancement:
true
: Enable low-light enhancement.false
: (Default) Disable low-light enhancement.
- options
- The low-light enhancement options. See LowlightEnhanceOptions.
- type
- The type of the video source. See MEDIA_SOURCE_TYPE.
Returns
- 0: Success.
- < 0: Failure.
SetMixedAudioFrameParameters
Set the format of the raw audio data after mixing for audio capture and playback.
public abstract int SetMixedAudioFrameParameters(int sampleRate, int channel, int samplesPerCall);
The SDK calculates the sampling interval based on the samplesPerCall, sampleRate and channel parameters set in this method.Sample interval (sec) = samplePerCall/(sampleRate × channel). Ensure that the sample interval ≥ 0.01 (s). The SDK triggers the OnMixedAudioFrame callback according to the sampling interval.
