Will a session created on openvidu stay open permanently so long as .close() is not called on it? For example: A user creates a Meeting in my webapp I create my Meeting object and at that time I ping my openvidu instance to create a session with a custom session_id. I store session_id on my meet…

The session will be automatically closed when the last participant disconnects, bare that in mind. If you want to overcome this, you must manage the possibility of having to re-create again your “customSessionId” session. Will be a different one, but just with the same identifier.
