Last updated 8 months ago
When joining a channel, you need to:
  1. Request capture device access
  2. Initiate a channel join
For information on the differences between channels types, refer to the Channel types page.
Note
A user can join a maximum of 10 non-positional channels at a time. Attempts to join a channel beyond that limit fail with a 
VxXmppServerErrorServiceUnavailable (20502)
error.
Note
Channels have a maximum occupancy of 200 participants. Attempts to join a channel that has reached 200 participants will fail with a VxXmppServerErrorServiceUnavailable (20502) error. To have channels support more than 200 participants, you can use the Large 3D channels setting, available as an enterprise feature.
