participant.add
Adds a participant to a conference. All participants in a conference must have a “participantName”
that is unique to the conference but it need not be unique across all conferences.

Participants can be added before or during a conference. A participant which is added at any time via
the API will be added to the configured list of participants, and thus will be called at the start of the
conference by the MCU for any conference which has any sort of repetition; to avoid this, a participant
must be removed directly using participant.remove.
Note:
If a participantName matches the name of an endpoint in the list of configured endpoints (go to
Endpoints
in the web interface) the two are treated as unrelated. This is because in the web
interface named, configured, endpoints have the participantType value by_name, whereas API
participants are of type by_address.
Parameter

this value should also be ad_hoc. Ad hoc
participants can only be added to active
conferences.
