Google Hangouts API: Can I start an “On Air” Hangout?

Question

Is there a way to start an \"On Air\" hangout via the API? I\'ve got my application created and working great, however I need the hangout\'s embed code for my customers.

Answer 1

It is not currently possible to embed a hangout. With the Hangout button, though, the start screen includes the standard checkbox to make the Hangout On Air. developers.google.com/+/hangouts/button
