Since Live channel is an unlisted channel that will not be discoverable by users - is there a way to block those user from joining the channel and only limits certain list of user IDs to join

@martin thanks for the question. Unfortunately we don’t provide the capability of maintaining the allowed user id list / user segment at our side, but you could maintain the list from your side and do the checking before calling the SDK function.
