So I'm going to click "Schedule."
And the thing that's important to note here, is that there are different levels of access for panelists - or someone who is going to be speaking at your event - as opposed to someone who's a guest at your event. So if I want to send something to a guest - say I have a registration page up on the website, and members are putting in their names and their email address - I will be copying this information and sending it to them separately.
Again, if you're registering people in Zoom internally, you can run all of that through the Zoom interface. But because we're deciding to do it through our website, the same way that people normally would be registering for an event if it were in person, I can just copy this and email it to people on my list.
Now, this link won't let people join in order to share their video and share their audio. This will only allow them to watch the broadcast. If I want to enable access for someone who's going to be an instructor or someone who's going to be perhaps sharing their screen, I need to actually invite them here.
Edith, I'm going to add you.
Edith Platten: (00:17:06) Okay.
Justin Kegley: (00:17:11) Oops. I always do that. So, if I add a panelist, what this means is that Edith will get an email that will allow her to join my practice session.
Edith Platten: (00:17:26) Oh, I got it. Yeah.
Justin Kegley: (00:17:27) Right. So that would allow you to actually join the practice session before we broadcast to anybody. It'll allow you to share your audio, and share your video, and share your screen.
If the person that you invited misses the email, or it gets buried in their inbox, you can re-send from the Zoom interface here. You can also copy it from here and send it to them individually,
Edith Platten: (00:17:53) Which is what you did for me for this meeting.
Justin Kegley: (00:17:55) Right. So the point that's important to make here is that these links that invite panelists are unique to those people.
And the reason for that is because it is ensuring that there's a level of security that prevents any of the guests from hopping in and becoming panelists. So you do have to keep track of each of these links because they are unique to each panelist. And it's assigned to the email address that you put into this menu here.
So, for example, Edith, if I sent this to you and you opened this on a separate email address, say your personal email address, and you tried to click in, unless that email address was the account that I had previously authorized here, you wouldn't be able to access it - I don't think. So that's why it's important to keep track of each of these links specifically for each individual panelist.
