Auto-Created Attendee Records for Speakers

Written by Holly

Use Auto Create Attendee Record? when presenters should also have an attendee record linked to a particular ticket. Invited presenters can already access the event through their Presenter Dashboard login, so a separate attendee record is optional.


​

Choose the attendee ticket

  1. Go to Event Settings > Event Experience > Presenter Experience.

  2. Under Presenter Records, choose a ticket in Auto Create Attendee Record?.

  3. Select Save. Leaving the field blank turns automatic attendee-record creation off.

How records are created

When the setting is enabled, saving a new or existing presenter creates or reuses an attendee record with their email address and assigns the selected ticket. If that attendee already has the ticket, HeySummit leaves the existing assignment in place.


​

  • The presenter needs an email address.

  • The selected ticket must belong to this event and have at least one ticket price.

  • HeySummit does not send the standard attendee welcome email when creating the record this way.

  • Saving an enabled or changed ticket setting also attempts to create matching attendee records for existing presenters.
