Message the Hoat

Is there a way to DM or ping the Host if a participant is in a waiting room?

context: my implementation is a web Meeting that is used primarily to give tech support through video calls,
but if the meeting hasn’t started the host doesn’t know if someone entered the call. we could keep the mmeting going on for several hours in that case the host will recieve a ping asking to allow a participant in, but that’s because the host is on the meeting

Alternatively, you can listen for Webhooks and implement your own method of notifying the host if a participant is in a waiting room:
