is room created on the livekit server or on my server where I run the agent process?

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


Rooms in LiveKit are created on the *LiveKit server*. They can be created manually via the server API or automatically when the first participant joins the room.
