Get userId of user who launched app into meeting stage
I have an app that makes use of the https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/platform/apps-in-teams-meetings/design/designing-apps-in-meetings#use-the-shared-meeting-stage functionality provided by MS Teams API. This works fine and when any participant clicks on the "Launch to meeting stage" icon in the sidePanel app, the Shared Meeting Stage opens up for all participants with contents of my app. However, I wanted to give the person who launched the app into meeting stage access to some additional functionality within the meeting stage app that other attendees do not have. In order to do that, I need to know who the user is who launched the app into meeting stage. How can I get the information of which user launched the app into meeting stage? Thanks in advance

Control who gets to launch app into MeetingStage
I have built a Teams app, which can be added to a meeting as a side-panel app, and can be launched into shared MeetingStage using the "share" button. However, for this app, I'm trying to set up controls such that only the Organizer of the meeting can launch the app into MeetingStage and other participants only see the shared MeetingStage but cannot launch the app into MeetingStage by themselves. In an ideal world, I would like the sidepanel app also only available for the Organizer of the meeting and other participants can only "see" the shared meeting stage when the organizer launches the app into MeetingStage. Is there some way for me to control who sees the side panel app and/or who can launch the app into MeetingStage? Help much appreciated!
