What to do next
Dive deeper into key Daily concepts
To add more advanced settings to your Daily app, we recommend starting with meeting tokens to control room access, and with events to respond to things that happen during your calls.
Meeting tokens
Meeting tokens control who can access rooms and what features are enabled for each user. They can be configured with many properties.
Events
Lots of things can happen on a Daily call: participants join and leave, share their screens, etc. Daily events fire when any of these changes happen. You can create event listeners that respond to these changes to customize your call experience.
