# Conference Members

> Control individual Vobiz conference members - mute, deaf, kick, hang up, and play audio or text to a single participant without affecting others.

This resource lets you perform actions on members of a conference. You can control audio states (mute/deaf), remove participants (kick/hang up), and play audio or text to specific members.

<Info>
  **Authentication required:**

  * `X-Auth-ID` - Your account ID (e.g., `{auth_id}`)
  * `X-Auth-Token` - Your account Auth Token
  * `Content-Type: application/json`
</Info>

## Member Targeting

Most member operations support flexible targeting allowing you to act on individual members, multiple members, or all members at once:

### Single Member - `member_id`

Target a specific member by their member\_id (e.g., "17"). Only that member is affected.

```
/Member/17/Mute/
```

### Multiple Members - comma-separated list

Target multiple specific members by providing a comma-separated list of member IDs.

```
/Member/17,45,82/Mute/
```

### All Members - `"all"`

Use the string "all" to target every member in the conference simultaneously.

```
/Member/all/Mute/
```

<Warning>
  Capture `ConferenceMemberID` from conference `enter` callbacks. The Retrieve a Conference endpoint does not currently return reliable live member details. Member IDs are scoped to a conference session and may be reused after a participant leaves and rejoins.
</Warning>
