To get active speaker in Teams online meeting

According to the document below, you can use the bots to get the id of the active speaker (currently speaking) in a Teams meeting.
Ref.:https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/platform/bots/calls-and-meetings/real-time-media-concepts

However, when I read the Micirosoft Graph docs, I couldn't find an API that could get the active speaker.

Could you please tell me how to get an active speaker?

Hi @KiriganeTomoyuki-8748

Yes, I did a research and we did not find such APIs that could get the active speaker ID.

Our forum is mainly focused on the general issue of Microsoft Teams troubleshooting. Considering your question is also related to Teams API development, I will also add teams-app-dev tag to your thread. And let us see if there is anyone have some ideas about it.

From our Teams client, we could see the active speaker directly when join Teams. A circle will appear around the active speakers when someone is speaking in Teams meeting.

Hi @JimmyYang-MSFT

Thank, you for your advice.
It looks like the tagging wasn't right.

I added some new keywords to the tag.
("microsoft-graph-sdk" and "azure bot service")

Currently there is no such API to provide active speaker. If this needs to be consider as a future request, some new features would be added to the services based on customers' feedback in the future, we also recommend you give your new idea in Teams UserVoice.
