}Get the registration waitlist
Who is waiting for a place, as counts: registrations on the waitlist per form and per
ticket type, people on the event waitlist of a closed or full form (name and email
only, no ticket yet), when the oldest joined, and offers — open (a place is held
for them now), expired (the hold ran out) and taken (offered and now registered).
seat_offers are held seats on full tickets, event_waitlist_offers the personal links sent to
people on a closed form’s event waitlist; offers adds them up. Each form carries its waitlist settings: on, automatic promotion, the offer window in
hours, whether paid tickets may be waitlisted, and the event waitlist at close. To list
the people, use List registrations
with status=waitlisted.
Requires read:registrations (legacy tokens with no scopes pass).
