can i request a from the api or the sdk to force end room remote

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


Yes — you can remotely force end a room using the Server SDK or API by calling DeleteRoom (e.g., `roomServiceClient.deleteRoom(roomName)` in Node, or `api_client.room.delete_room(api.DeleteRoomRequest(room=room_name))` in Python).

When you call DeleteRoom the room is ended and all participants are disconnected; a `disconnected` room event is emitted.

Do you want the exact code snippet for a specific server language (Node, Python, Go, Ruby, or Kotlin) and your room naming format?
