Thanks for reaching out, Theo. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.

To monitor participant count in LiveKit, you can use the following methods depending on the SDK you are using: • In the Swift SDK, you can access the participant count using the

participantCount

property of a Room instance:

Copy code

@objc
var participantCount: Int { get }

• In the JavaScript SDK, you can use the

numParticipants

method:

Copy code

getnumParticipants():number

These methods allow you to retrieve the current number of participants in the room. You can implement a polling mechanism or event-based logic to monitor this count and trigger room closure when it falls below a certain threshold. If you need further assistance, feel free to ask!

Unfortunately, I couldn't find specific information about accessing participant count in the LiveKit Python SDK. The available documentation does not mention a direct method or property for this purpose in Python. If you are working with the Python SDK, you might need to explore the SDK's documentation or API further to see if there is a way to retrieve participant count, or consider using server-side APIs or webhooks to monitor participant activity. If you need further assistance, feel free to let me know!
