Real-Time Updates For real-time chat during meetings, use WebSocket events instead of polling this endpoint:
chat-message - New message receiveduser-typing - User is typing indicator
See Chat Events for real-time chat implementation.
When a user joins a room via WebSocket, the last 50 messages are automatically sent in the room-joined event. Use this endpoint only if you need the complete history or are joining via REST API.
