You can let attendees access a scheduled talk shortly before its published start time. This is useful when you want people to settle in, see pre-show content, or begin using the available interaction tools.
Set the early-entry window
Open the event dashboard and go to Event Settings > Event Experience > Live & Replay Experience.
Under Additional Settings, enter the number of minutes in Let Attendees In Early (minutes)?. The default for a new event is 0, which keeps entry at the scheduled start time.
Select Save.
What this changes
The setting applies across scheduled talks in the event.
HeySummit treats the talk broadcast as available this many minutes before the scheduled start time.
It does not change the talk date or time, start an external webinar room, or change when reminder emails are scheduled.
If a reminder sends attendees directly to an external webinar URL, access to that room still follows the webinar provider's own settings.
