ejabberd API invite to MUC room

Question

I am working on ejabberd API to invite users to MUC room. I have setup OAuth for API.

I have tested oauth with get_room_occupants and its working fine.

Now, I am trying to access /api/send_direct_invitation, but as per logs, I don't have permission to access this api

I have generated oauth with command line ejabberdctl oauth_issue_token admin@host 31540000 "ejabberd:admin"

Do I need to pass any extra permissions

Ejabberd Version: 17.11 Installed on: ubuntu 16.04 Configuered DB: mysql

Here is a ejabberd.yml file

api_permissions:
  "console commands":
    from:
      - ejabberd_ctl
    who: all
    what: "*"
  "admin access":
    who:
      - access:
          - allow:
            - user: admin@host
      - oauth:
        - scope: "ejabberd:admin"
        - access:
          - allow:
            - user: admin@host
    what:
      - "*"
      - "!stop"
      - "!start"
  "public commands":
    who:
      - ip: "127.0.0.1/8"
    what:
      - "status"
      - "connected_users_number"
commands_admin_access:
  - allow:
    - user: "admin@host"
commands:
  add_commands:
    - status
    - registered_users
    - register
    - unregister
    - get_roster
    - connected_users
    - send_stanza_c2s
    - send_stanza
    - join_cluster
    - send_direct_invitation
oauth_expire: 3600
oauth_access: all

I tried running this via command line and got this error

command: ejabberdctl send_direct_invitation naviteam1519 conference.xxx.yyy.com "" "You need this room!" [email protected]

error:

Problem 'error {bad_jid,<<"[email protected]">>}' occurred executing the command.

         {ejabberd_ctl,call_command,4,
                       [{file,"src/ejabberd_ctl.erl"},{line,352}]},
         {ejabberd_ctl,try_call_command,4,
                       [{file,"src/ejabberd_ctl.erl"},{line,321}]},
         {ejabberd_ctl,process2,4,
                       [{file,"src/ejabberd_ctl.erl"},{line,271}]},
         {ejabberd_ctl,process,2,
                       [{file,"src/ejabberd_ctl.erl"},{line,249}]}]

You did not show us your ejabberdctl send_direct_invitation command and the logs.

My bet is that you don't have correctly formatted command:

from the send_direct_invitation api it should look like this:

POST /api/send_direct_invitation
{
  "name": "room1",
  "service": "muc.example.com",
  "password": "",
  "reason": "Check this out!",
  "users": "user2@localhost:[email protected]"
}

Then an example would look like this:

ejabberdctl send_direct_invitation aRoom conference.localhost "" "You need this room!" msg_test1@localhost

As for your ejabbered.yml file. Are you sure you have: admin@host user? Shouldn't that be for you a admin@localhost?

Edit

Based on the comment: The OP is missing mod-client-state configuration mod-client-state configuration:

Example configuration:

modules:
  ...
  mod_client_state:
    queue_chat_states: true
    queue_pep: false
    queue_presence: true
  ...
