Events

SuperViz Video Conference SDK offers a range of events that allow you to monitor and respond to several interactions and changes within the meeting. These events provide valuable insights into participant actions, meeting state transitions, and more.

onMeetingStart

Type: () => void

This event is dispatched when the Video Conference is initialized.

onMeetingStateChange

Type: (state: MeetingState) => void

<Videoconference> operates through a series of distinct states to ensure the meeting experience. The onMeetingStateChange event enables you to monitor and react to these state transitions.

Monitoring these states allows you to provide real-time feedback to participants and implement dynamic behavior based on the current state of the Video Conference. E. g. When the state is MEETING_READY_TO_JOIN it confirms that the user has already consented device permissions and it’s ready to join the meeting.

See the MeetingState section for more details.

onLocalParticipantJoin

Type: (participant: Participant) => void

This event is dispatched when the local participant enters the meeting.

onLocalParticipantLeave

Type: (participant: Participant) => void

This event is dispatched when the local participant leaves the meeting.

onParticipantJoin

Type: (participant: Participant) => void

This event dispatches when a participant enters the meeting room.

onParticipantLeave

Type: (participant: Participant) => void

This event dispatches when a participant leaves the meeting room.

onParticipantListChange

Type: (participant: Participant) => void

This event is dispatched when there is a change in the list of participants of the meeting.

onParticipantAmountChange

Type: (amount: number) => void;

This event dispatches when the number of participants in a meeting has changed.

onHostChange

Type: (participantId: string) => void;

This event is dispatched when a new participant is given the host capabilities for the current meeting.

onHostAvaliable

Type: () => void

This event dispatches when the host enters the meeting after guests and audience members have already joined.


If a host is the first to enter the meeting the event won't be dispatched.

onNoHostAvaliable

Type: () => void

This event dispatches when a guest or audience member enters the meeting, but there’s no host available yet.


If a host is the first to enter the meeting the event won’t be dispatched.

onWaitingForHostChange

Type: (waiting: boolean) => void

This event dispatches when a guest or audience member of the meeting tries to join the meeting, but there’s no host available yet. It will be triggered again, with the value false, when the host joins the room.

onKickLocalParticipant

Type: () => void

This event dispatches when a host kicks one participant out of the meeting,

onKickAllParticipants

Type: () => void

This event dispatches when two or more participants are in the room, one designated as a host and the other as a non-host (typically a guest). For the event to occur, the host must leave the room, leaving only the non-host inside. This situation results in the room being left without a host.

onConnectionStatusChange

Type: (status: MeetingConnectionStatus) => void

This event is dispatched when there is a change in the connection status of the participant in the meeting. This event provides real-time updates about the quality and availability of the audio/video service.

By monitoring this event and interpreting the status values, you can implement responsive actions, such as advising participants to turn off video in case of a BAD connection or handling reconnection scenarios when LOST_CONNECTION occurs.

See the MeetingConnectionStatus section for more details.

onDevicesStateChange

Type: (state: DeviceEvent) => void

This event is dispatched when there is a change in the local participant device list. E.g. This event will be triggered when the participant connects a headphone on the laptop.

onFrameDimensionsChange

Type: (dimensions: {width: number, height: number}) => void

The Video Conference, when initialized, inserts a SuperViz-enabled iframe into the Document Object Model (DOM). This event is dispatched when there is a change to the iframe dimensions.

onDestroy

Type: () => void

This event is dispatched when the participant leaves the meeting room.

Type Definitions

DeviceEvent

Type: enum

This enum helps to understand the status of the devices available for the local participant.

Here are the possible states and their meanings:

StateDescription
NO_CAMNo camera is available for the local participant.
NO_DEVICESNo devices are currently connected.
DEVICES_BLOCKEDDevice access is blocked for the participant.
DEVICES_CAM_BLOCKEDCamera access is blocked for the participant. Perhaps because it’s been used by other applications.
DEVICES_INITIALIZATION_ERRORThere was an error during device initialization.
DEVICES_UNKNOWN_ERRORAn unknown error occurred with the participant's devices.
DEVICES_ALLOWEDAll device access is granted by the participant.

Dimensions

Type: object

An object that represents the Video Conference dimensions on the component’s frame.

NameTypeDescription
widthnumberThe width of the frame represented in pixels.
heightnumberThe height of the frame represented in pixels.

Example:

{
"width": 921,
"height": 678
}

Participant

An object describing the participant information, like name and avatar.

NameTypeDescription
idstringIdentifier of the participant who is entering the room. Usually, this ID matches the internal ID of your users.

"avatar": {
"imageUrl": "https://<PATH>",
"model3DUrl": "https://<PATH>",
}
}

MeetingConnectionStatus

Type: enum

The MeetingConnectionStatus serves as a dynamic indicator of the real-time connection quality and availability of the audio/video service. This enumeration defines a set of distinct values, each reflecting a specific state of the meeting's connection, allowing you to precisely monitor and respond to the meeting's operational status.

This enum has the following possible statuses:

StatusValueDescription
NOT_AVAILABLE0Indicates that the audio/video service is disconnected.
GOOD1Represents good connection quality, ensuring a stable and reliable audio/video experience.
BAD2Indicates a bad connection quality. It’s indicated to encourage the participants to consider turning off video to enhance the experience.
POOR3Signifies a poor connection, often due to participant connections and/or PC specifications not meeting the minimum requirements for a smooth audio/video experience.
DISCONNECTED4Indicates that audio/video transmission has been interrupted, with no network packets sent or received for at least 10 seconds.
RECONNECTING5Occurs during a reconnection process triggered by a loss of connection.
LOST_CONNECTION6Indicates a complete loss of connection to the audio/video service.

MeetingState

Type: enum

Represents the current state of the Video Conference meeting. This value reflects one of the possible states indicating the operational status of the meeting component. You can utilize this information in your callback function to respond to and manage the meeting's dynamic behavior based on its state.

StateValue
MEETING_FAILED-1Indicates a failure in the meeting, requiring attention or troubleshooting.
MEETING_DISCONNECTED0Indicates a state where the meeting is not connected.
MEETING_INITIALIZING1Signifies the meeting is in the process of initialization.
MEETING_READY_TO_JOIN2Confirms that the meeting was prepared for participants to join, meaning that device permissions were consent and everything is working.
