HeySummit's Zoom integration is designed to create or connect one Zoom Webinar or Zoom Meeting for each HeySummit talk. It does not create or manage Zoom Events or Zoom Events Sessions.
What HeySummit supports
Zoom Webinar: a webinar hosted in Zoom for a single HeySummit talk. This is usually best when presenters speak and attendees mainly watch.
Zoom Meeting: a meeting hosted in Zoom for a single HeySummit talk. This is usually best when attendees should be able to join more interactively.
When you connect a Zoom host in HeySummit, HeySummit can create or connect these standard Zoom webinars or meetings for talks, register attendees with Zoom when needed, and keep the talk's Zoom details in sync.
What HeySummit does not manage
HeySummit does not manage Zoom Events or the Sessions inside a Zoom Event.
A Zoom Event is Zoom's own multi-session event product. A Zoom Session belongs inside that Zoom Event. That is different from a HeySummit event, where HeySummit manages the event site, schedule, registration, tickets, email, reporting, and talk setup.
Because of that, you cannot use HeySummit to create one standalone Zoom Event Session. HeySummit creates or connects individual Zoom Webinars or Zoom Meetings for HeySummit talks instead.
Which option should I choose?
Use HeySummit + Zoom Webinars or Zoom Meetings if you want HeySummit to manage the event experience, including landing pages, registration, tickets, schedule, emails, attendee reporting, and talk setup.
Use Zoom Events directly if you want the whole event to live inside Zoom's event product. In that setup, Zoom manages the event and its sessions, rather than HeySummit creating Zoom sessions for each talk.
In short: HeySummit events pair with Zoom Webinars or Zoom Meetings. Zoom Events and Zoom Event Sessions are separate from HeySummit's current Zoom integration.
