AI-assisted development for embedding white-label video conferencing into your platform.
Installation • Usage • Examples • Resources
A skill gives Claude domain expertise. It's a set of markdown files that teach Claude about a specific API, SDK, or workflow. When you install this skill, Claude understands Digital Samba's video conferencing platform and can write integration code, explain concepts, and troubleshoot issues—without you having to paste documentation into every conversation.
Works with both Claude Code (CLI) and Claude Desktop.
Note: Skills install differently on each platform. Claude Code uses project-level folders (
.claude/skills/), while Claude Desktop uses a ZIP upload via Settings. We provide both methods below.
Building a telehealth app? Online learning platform? Virtual consultation service? This skill helps Claude assist you with integrating Digital Samba's video conferencing into your product.
- 🏠 Room Management - Create and configure video rooms via API
- 🔐 User Authentication - Generate JWT tokens to securely connect your users
- 📺 Embedding - Integrate video calls seamlessly into your UI
- 🎛️ SDK Control - Programmatically control the video experience
- 🔔 Webhooks - React to room events in your backend
