Chat Messages Throttling

Integrators can configure throttling to control how frequently fans are allowed to send chat messages in a room. This helps reduce spam and maintain healthy conversation flow without completely disabling chat activity.

For example, if throttling is set to 30 seconds, a user can only send one message every 30 seconds per room. Throttling can be set only in seconds. Values 0 seconds disabling throttle.

Use Cases: • Spam Prevention: Prevent a single fan from flooding a chat with rapid messages. • Room-Specific Throttling: Apply different throttle policies per room depending on audience size or event type. • Fair Participation: Ensure all fans have a chance to contribute to the discussion.
