How to sync/initialize xAPI with Room Control Panel

So I understand HOW to integrate the Webex device (in my case, a Webex Desk Pro) with a room control system (in this case, Home Assistant) using HttpClient and the Home Assistant REST API.

However, the problem is keeping it in sync. Ideally, I would hook an event that gets fired whenever the control panel is shown and on each widget action/tab change. This should be "good enough" to sync state of various devices.

But the problem is, it looks like the only events I can register for are Widget events. Meaning, on each load of the control panel, the state of devices depicted is stale UNTIL I do some action like click a button or slide a slider, then I can update it. But this is suboptimal from a user perspective.

How can I hook events so that when the room control panel is loaded, all states are initialized to the correct values? Is there a way to do this? Or, being super kludgey, is there a scheduler that can be called every 30-60 seconds to update state in the background omegle?
