Checking who is viewing different parts of your event

  • Updated

There are a couple of ways you can see how many people are currently online and viewing different parts of your event. This guide explains how to check who is viewing different parts of your event and how to manage attendee visibility in the event settings. 

People count

The People icon, located at the top of every page above the activity panel, will tell you the total amount of people currently online at the event. This people count will stay visible across the whole event venue. 

People list in Sessions and Expo Booths

One way you can discover how many people are viewing your Session or Expo Booth is by navigating to the People tab in the respective area. Here you will see the list of who is viewing your Session or Booth.

Note: This works only in Sessions and Expo Booths. You will see the list of all registrants in the People tab in the Stage area.

In Sessions and Expo Booths set as Session, you will also see the total number of viewers in the top right corner of the screen next to the eye icon. 

Additionally, in the Sessions area, you can see how many people are viewing each of your Session rooms. There will be an eye icon at the bottom right of each Session listing.

Note: Unlike multi-track events, the Webinar setup allows for either a single Stage or a single Session, while the Expo area is not supported. Therefore, there will be no Sessions area. For further details, refer to our guide Webinar event: Choosing and setting up webinar style.

Managing attendee visibility 

The people count and the people list can be enabled/disabled in the event settings.

  • To manage attendee visibility in a multi-track event:

    1. Go to Event Dashboard > Setup > Basics and make sure you have Networking area enabled. If it's disabled, no People tab and no People count will be available in your event venue.
    2. Go to Event Dashboard > Venue > Venue Controls (or to Event Dashboard > Setup > Access and Settings for Onsite events).
    3. Under Attendee Visibility, toggle the following options:
      • Show people list: Attendees will see a filterable list of event participants. This list will be shown on both the Networking area in the left navigation bar and the people tab in the activity panel.
      • Show people count: Attendees will see the number of event participants.
    4. Click Save.

    For further details, refer to our guide Setting up attendee controls and visibility.
