Use External Webinar Accounts when you want HeySummit to connect a live talk to a supported external webinar provider, such as Zoom Webinar, Zoom Meeting, BigMarker, LiveWebinar, GoToWebinar, Webex, or BrainCert.
What this means
A Webinar Platform Host is usually the person or account that owns the external webinar provider account for a live talk. The host might be the event organizer, a team member, a speaker, or someone else whose provider account you need to connect. After the host is connected, HeySummit can use that provider account when creating and managing live talks. Attendees begin from your HeySummit event. Depending on the provider and delivery settings, they may watch an embedded session or follow a link to the external platform.
Where to manage it
Go to Event Settings > Integrations & Developer > External Webinar Accounts from your event dashboard. From there, you can add External Webinar Accounts, connect or reconnect provider accounts, send login details, revoke a host’s access to manage the connection, or delete a host. The available actions depend on who manages that host account. Deleting a host prevents future linked sessions from broadcasting until you assign another suitable host.
