LiveKit Error: 'Requested room does not exist' - Using Python Backend for URL and Token Generation
3 months ago by Diego Munoz
Hello everyone,
We’re encountering an issue when integrating LiveKit (version 2.8.1) with our application. We’re using a Python backend to generate the URL and access token, following the instructions provided in the HeyGen Streaming API integration with LiveKit v2 documentation.
Here’s a brief overview of the process:
The backend generates the LiveKit URL (a wss:// URL) and the access token using LiveKit’s server-side SDK.
We use these credentials to connect to the LiveKit room in our frontend with the following code:
typescript
await this.room.connect(url, accessToken);
However, when we attempt to connect, we encounter the error:
requested room does not exist
while calling /rtc/validate
(automatically done by LiveKit)
I would like to have some guidance on how to continue.
