current livekit session is running on entry point where to get the room id

Thanks for reaching out, Vivek. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.
Thanks — I can help find the room ID. Quick clarifying questions so I point to the exact place to read it: 1. Which SDK/integration and language are you using (Agent JS, Node, Go, Python, browser, etc.)? 2. Is your "entrypoint" server-side (webhook/handler/agent service) or client-side (browser/native app)? 3. Are you receiving a request payload (webhook/HTTP) or reading from an SDK/context object inside the session? If you can paste a sample request/context (redact secrets), that helps. 4. Do you want the room "name" (human-readable) or the room "ID" (unique identifier)? Once you answer I’ll show the exact field (for example 
room_id
, 
room
, or the SDK context property) and a short code snippet. Sources: Agent Console | LiveKit Documentation, with interactive elements

Thanks — I can help you find the room ID. I need one quick clarification so I point to the exact property: Which agent/runtime are you using for the entrypoint? (livekit-agents JS/Node, Go, Python, or the browser SDK) Once you tell me, I’ll show the exact field to read (e.g., 
room_id
, 
room
, or 
JobContext.room
) and a short code example. Sources: Agent Console | LiveKit Documentation | Job lifecycle | LiveKit Documentation, with interactive elements

Thanks — you’re asking how to get the room ID from a running LiveKit session in the Python agent entrypoint. In the Python runtime your entrypoint receives a 
ctx
(JobContext). You can read the room name with 
ctx.room.name
. The docs show examples using 
ctx.room
(e.g., 
ctx.room.name
) for room access, and LiveKit logs include both Room name and Room ID by default. I don’t have a confirmed property name for the room’s unique ID (e.g., 
ctx.room.id
vs 
ctx.room.sid
) in the sources I can see. Quick question so I give an exact snippet: do you need the human-readable room name or the unique room ID/SID? If you want, paste a short redacted sample of your 
ctx.room
object and I’ll point to the exact field and a tiny code example. Sources: How to Build a Background Observer for Voice AI Guardrails | LiveKit | How to Send Logs from the JavaScript SDK to Providers like Datadog, with interactive elements
