+LiveKit is a dynamic realtime environment and calls can fail for various reasons.
 
 You may throw errors of the type `RpcError` with a string `message` in an RPC method handler and they will be received on the caller's side with the message intact. Other errors will not be transmitted and will instead arrive to the caller as `1500` ("Application Error"). Other built-in errors are detailed in `RpcError`.
