+### Request offer from publisher
+
+In order to receive media from existing publishers, a client must request an
+offer from them.

+    {
+      "type": "message",
+      "message": {
+        "recipient": {

+      }
+    }
+
+
+Message format (Client -> Server, send answer):
+
+    {
+      "type": "message",
+      "message": {
+        "recipient": {
+          "type": "session",

+          }
+        }
+      }
+    }
+
+
+Candidates are exchanged afterwards as described above.
+
+
+### Send offer to subscriber
+
+For screensharing streams, the recipients don't know when to request the offer
+from the publisher, so in this case, the publisher must trigger receiving the
+stream for them, by sending an offer to each subscriber.
+
+Message format (Client -> Server, sendoffer):
+
+    {
+      "type": "message",
+      "message": {
+        "recipient": {
+          "type": "session",
+          "sessionid": "the-subscriber-session-id"
+        },
+        "data": {
+          "type": "sendoffer",
+          "roomType": "video-or-screen"
+        }
+      }
+    }
+
+Afterwards, the server will send an `offer` to the recipient, which has to send
+back the `answer` and then candidates will be exchanged.
