This article is for Event Organizers

Below are ways to add and manage the speakers for your event. This is important when using the Mobile App and Virtual events for attendees, so they know who is speaking at each session and more info on them.


Add Speakers

Speakers can be added into each session as you are creating them, or by accessing the Speakers section of your event.

Important: Adding a Speaker does NOT add them as an event attendee. If a speaker wants to attend the event, then they must also register or be manually added to the Attendee list for the event.


📋 Add Speakers One-by-One

1. Under the Sessions section, click on Speakers

2. Click Actions and then Add Speaker

3. The speaker profile will appear for you to fill out. Enter all of the speaker information that you have with First and Last Name being the only two fields actually required.

4. Once done, click the blue Create button

NOTE:

- Biography has a 2000 character limit

-Speaker photos MUST be a 1:1 aspect ratio, with a 300x300 pixel minimum, and the file should not be larger than 3mb.

Once speakers are added, they will appear in the Speaker List. They can be edited further/later by clicking the Edit icon on the far right of each speaker's row in the Speaker List.

Important: Your speakers will appear within the sessions on the mobile app in Alphabetical order by last name.


📁 Bulk Import Speakers

1. Under the Sessions section, click on Speakers.

2. Click on Import ➜ Import CSV or drag and drop a CSV file to Upload a file

  • We provide a sample template to use for your import file.

3. Enter all of the speaker information that you want imported (uploaded) with First and Last Name being the only two fields actually required.

4. Once added, click the Review Changes for Import

5. After final review, click Save

Important: The file must be in CSV UTF-8 to ensure there are no character issues.


Remove Speaker(s)

Once a speaker has been added, it is very easy to delete/remove them.

1. Under the Sessions section, click on Speakers

2. Find the speaker you want to delete. Click on the box next to their name.

3. Click the blue Actions button and select Remove Speaker(s)

Important: Removing/deleting a speaker cannot be undone. Please make sure you want them completely removed from your event before proceeding.
