Overview

CometChat Calls integrates 1:1 and group audio/video calling into the React UI Kit. Install the Calls SDK and enable calling via .setCallingEnabled(true) on UIKitSettingsBuilder to activate call components.
Ensure you have called CometChatUIKit.init() with .setCallingEnabled(true) and CometChatUIKit.login() before rendering. See React.js Integration.

​
Integration

Install the Calls SDK and enable calling: 
npm install @cometchat/calls-sdk-javascript
Then set .setCallingEnabled(true) on your UIKitSettingsBuilder: 
const settings = new UIKitSettingsBuilder()
  .setAppId("YOUR_APP_ID")
  .setRegion("YOUR_REGION")
  .setAuthKey("YOUR_AUTH_KEY")
  .setCallingEnabled(true)
  .build();

await CometChatUIKit.init(settings);
await CometChatUIKit.login("cometchat-uid-1");
Call buttons render inside MessageHeader when calling is enabled.
