Answers.Body: <p>I think you would need to use custom code to achieve that. You can use webform, but not civicrm fields in it but regular and use hook_webform_submission_insert which will get fired when webform is submitted and then using API calls, you can add participants in waitlist.</p>

Comments.Text: FYI - This is still not a thing in CiviCRM 5.28/Drupal 8.9. The webform responds that the event is full (not the waitlist message) and the submission is not saved. The CiviCRM registration waitlist works.

ThreadText: # Can a Drupal webform be used to create a waitlist registration?
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2018-02-22)
  
  I have a CiviCRM Event which allows waitlist registrations and handles them correctly within Civi - including sending emails when there is a cancellation.
  
  However, a Drupal webform used to enter registrations does not seem to allow/create waitlist registrations.
  
  Is it possible to use the Drupal webform for waitlist registrations?

  I do think that this is possible it also depends on the event configuration in CiviCRM.
  
  If it is not possible you could create a webform in which each participant gets the status on waitlist instead of registered. That way you could create a waitlist.
  
  To enable Participant Status - on waitlist in your webform -> you need to visit: /civicrm/admin/participant\_status?reset=1 and enable both `On waitlist` as well as `Pending from waitlist`
