Waitlisted Participants

Participants in the waiting room are represented by DyteRemoteParticipant objects. If the local user has the permission to accept waiting room requests (selfPermissions.host.canAcceptRequests is true), you can manage pending waiting room requests, accepting or rejecting them as needed. You can access the list of waitlisted participants via the meeting.participants.waitlisted property.

Note: If the local user is not a host, meeting.participants.waitlisted property returns an empty list.

Accepting Requests

To accept a waiting room request, use the acceptWaitingRoomRequest(String) method on a DyteParticipants object:

Kotlin

val waitlistedParticipant = meeting.participants.waitlisted[0]
meeting.participants.acceptWaitingRoomRequest(waitlistedParticipant.id)

Java

DyteRemoteParticipant waitlistedParticipant = meeting.getParticipants().getWaitlisted().get(0);
meeting.getParticipants().acceptWaitingRoomRequest(waitlistedParticipant.id);

Rejecting Requests

To deny a waiting room request, use the rejectWaitingRoomRequest(String) method on a DyteParticipants object:

Kotlin

val waitlistedParticipant = meeting.participants.waitlisted[0]
meeting.participants.rejectWaitingRoomRequest(waitlistedParticipant.id)

Java

DyteRemoteParticipant waitlistedParticipant = meeting.getParticipants().getWaitlisted().get(0);
meeting.getParticipants().rejectWaitingRoomRequest(waitlistedParticipant.id);

Waiting Room Events

Implement the DyteWaitlistEventsListener interface to listen for events related to the waiting room:

Kotlin

meeting.addWaitlistEventsListener(object: DyteWaitlistEventsListener {
    override fun onWaitListParticipantJoined(participant: DyteRemoteParticipant) {
        // Triggered when a new participant joins the waiting room
    }

    override fun onWaitListParticipantAccepted(participant: DyteRemoteParticipant) {
        // Triggered when a waitlisted participant is accepted into the meeting
    }

    override fun onWaitListParticipantRejected(participant: DyteRemoteParticipant) {
        // Triggered when a waitlisted participant is denied entry into the meeting
    }

    override fun onWaitListParticipantClosed(participant: DyteRemoteParticipant) {
        // Triggered when a waitlisted participant leaves the waiting room
    }
})

Java

meeting.addWaitlistEventsListener(new DyteWaitlistEventsListener() {
    @Override
    public void onWaitListParticipantJoined(DyteRemoteParticipant participant) {
        // Triggered when a new participant joins the waiting room
    }

    @Override
    public void onWaitListParticipantAccepted(DyteRemoteParticipant participant) {
        // Triggered when a waitlisted participant is accepted into the meeting
    }

    @Override
    public void onWaitListParticipantRejected(DyteRemoteParticipant participant) {
        // Triggered when a waitlisted participant is denied entry into the meeting
    }

    @Override
    public void onWaitListParticipantClosed(DyteRemoteParticipant participant) {
        // Triggered when a waitlisted participant leaves the waiting room
    }
})
