# Sessions

Video conferencing takes place inside [Rooms](/reference/rest-api/rooms.md). When a participant enters an empty room, then a new **session** automatically **starts** for that room. The session automatically **ends** when everybody leaves the room and it is empty for 5 minutes. Sessions are just for easy reasoning and navigation in the dashboard when you are reviewing the conferences which have happened in a room - e.g. you will be able to see that 30 people participated in a concrete room from 09:00 to 11:30 on January 16.

You can [list](/reference/rest-api/sessions/list.md#request-listing-all-sessions) all of the sessions globally for your team (all rooms) or for a concrete room.

You can [list the details](/reference/rest-api/sessions/list.md#request-get-a-concrete-session) of a concrete session too.
