Waitlisted Participants

Participants in the waiting room are represented by DyteWaitlistedParticipant 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 acceptWaitListedRequest() method on a DyteWaitlistedParticipant object:

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

Rejecting Requests​

To deny a waiting room request, use the rejectWaitListedRequest() method on a DyteWaitlistedParticipant object:

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

Waiting Room Events​

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

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

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

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

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