pass.holder_queued
A pass holder tapped their invite link and their join request is now held.
When this fires
A holder tapped their invite link for a dated window that has not opened yet. Telegram holds the join request, and Subscriby records that they are queued — they will be admitted automatically the moment the window opens, whether or not they are at their phone.
This is the moment a buyer stops being a risk, and it is the one thing about a pass that a creator can still act on beforehand.
Bought is not the same as queued
A purchase and a queued request are different events with different follow-up. Someone who bought but never tapped is relying on noticing a message on the day; someone queued needs nothing at all. Everything in the product that nudges a pass holder — the reminder ladder, the creator's roll call, the manual Send Reminders button — targets the first group and skips the second.
Required ability
project-subscription:view — token must carry this at mint time to subscribe an endpoint to this event.

Caveats
- This fires per join request, not per purchase. A season-ticket holder queues separately
for each of their dates, so one series purchase produces at least one of these per date they
tap — often spread over weeks, because the link for the next date is sent in the message
that ends the previous one. A plan with more than one Telegram resource produces one per
resource they tap, all carrying the same
window_id. - It does not fire when someone taps a link for a window that is already open. That is an
immediate admission, not a queued request, and arrives as
member.resource_added. - A holder who never taps produces no event at all. Absence is the signal — see
pass.holder_missedfor the other end of that. - Re-queuing does re-emit. The handler re-stamps
join_requested_atand fires this event again on everychat_join_requestit receives, so treatsubscription_id+window_idas the idempotency key on your side.
