**This is for developer-specific feature requests. For other requests please contact our customer support team.**

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**  
Yeah, currently we cannot track user when starting meeting using websdk.  
Like for example we need to track which user participated on meeting, etc with our database record.  
I know, we can pass email but it is not received on websdk. Custom attribute is more appealing than just an email.

**Describe the solution you’d like**  
If we can pass custom attribute and received that data on webhooks, that will be very helpful on many cases not just websdk.

**Describe alternatives you’ve considered**  
Support user id or return email passed on webhooks.

**Additional context**

```
const meetConfig = {
	apiKey: '3239845720934223459'
	meetingNumber: '123456789',
	leaveUrl: 'https://yoursite.com/meetingEnd',
	userName: 'Firstname Lastname',
	passWord: 'password',
	role: 1 // 1 for host,
    customAttr: {
        "internal_id": 123,
        "participant_id": 567
    }
};
