Track Users Connections Using Video API and Session Monitoring

What's this blog post about?

The Vonage Video API Application can benefit from Session Monitoring, which provides a reliable and secure way to monitor connections and streams in real-time, allowing developers to verify each connection to a video session and log each action for compliance reasons. The system uses webhooks to notify the application server about connections and streams published into a session, enabling fine-grained control of the time in which users are connected to a specific session. By leveraging Session Monitoring, developers can implement various use cases, such as limiting the connection time of users in a session, tracking the size of a session, and allowing only authorized users to join the session or limit the type of stream a user can publish. The system's flexibility in monitoring, storing, and reacting to events in real-time provides developers with a powerful tool to enhance their video applications' security and functionality.
