To have more control over who helps run your sessions, you can set up Attendee Emails to Auto-Promote as Moderators, in the Talk and Replay Experience. This lets you pre-assign moderator access to specific attendees before the session even begins.
All you need to do is add their email addresses under Attendee Emails to Auto-Promote as Moderators. Anyone listed there will automatically be given moderator access when they join the talk.
They’ll be able to manage the chat, Q and A, and polls right away, without needing to be promoted during the session.
Please note that this feature only works with the updated chat experience, which is now being rolled out to new events.
