Does voice and video calling have javascript event listeners like the chat event listerners in Azure Communication Service?

Question

I am currently working on a PoC communication application. I have been researching Azure Communication Service (ACS) a lot and find it a promising service to integrate into my application.

Just like real-time chatting, I want to have real-time incoming voice and video calls with ACS. I noticed this was doable with the Event Grid and SignalR, but I would like to know if it could also be done, like how they did it with real-time chatting. Reference to how chats do real-time, I found here and here.

That's totally possible, see the official quickstart:

chatClient.startRealtimeNotifications();
chatClient.on("chatMessageReceived", async (e) => {
    console.log("Notification chatMessageReceived!");
});

The model you'll get looks like this:

export interface ChatMessageReceivedEvent extends BaseChatMessageEvent {
    /**
     * Content of the message.
     */
    message: string;
    /**
     * Metadata of the message.
     */
    metadata: Record<string, string>;
}

If you're interested in building it with .NET, you can take a look at my ASP.NET Blazor + SignalR chat sample.
