• which opens browser and joins call

is this possible to directly join?

Since the desktop client is using the notifications to allow the user to interact with Talk, will the new urls be available as notification actions like DELETE, WEB...?

[tobiasKaminsky]

Current notification already has a "join call" action.
You can simply use the url there.
Once this is implemented the url "just" changes on server side and directly joins call.

After clarification call with Joas:

• this is not going to be a new entrypoint (for creating an embedded window in Desktop client, for example)
• notification link will be modified to contain a flag for direct opening of call (like ../call/{token}?direct_call)
• navigating to this link will immediately shows MediaSettings dialog
• optionally, forceJoinCall may be used to mount a CallView instead of ChatView (as we assuming that person wants to join call)

As mentioned I don't think this is a good idea. If you had camera on last time and clicked away the media settings modal for ever, we would expose the user with camera and audio after following a link in an email and alike, so should require a confirmation via the media settings screen
