Learn how to join a conference and register for sessions on the OneVenue platform!
Transcript:
Joining a conference on OneVenue is easy, but there a few steps to the process when you log in the first time, so let's go through it!
It is highly recommended to use either Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome as your web browser, as other browsers aren't supported by the platform. On mobile, you will need to make sure that the Microsoft Teams app is installed and up-to-date, as OneVenue uses Teams to host sessions. On desktop, this is optional.
To begin, navigate your browser to https://event.onevenue.com or click on the join link in your welcome email. You will be presented with a Microsoft sign in page. Enter the email address that you used to register for the conference and click next.
Depending on your account type, it will either ask you for your Microsoft password or it will send a code to your email address. Go ahead and enter your password or code and click "Sign in".
If this is the first time you've logged into the OneVenue platform, Microsoft will give you a prompt asking if OneVenue has permission to sign you in and see your profile information. Click Accept and you're in!
The conference page will look a bit different for each event, but the basic layout will be the same. On the right you will see your track and upcoming sessions, and you may have access to Announcements, Resources, the Swag Bag, and My Profile. Here you can adjust your display name, time zone, language preference, and whether you'd like to view sessions in-browser or in the Teams app.
Some conferences may require you to register for your own sessions. We can do that on the Sessions page. Here we can filter sessions in several ways, including time zone, track, and session type in order to better find what we're looking for. Then, just click Register under each session. Keep in mind, you may have multiple pages of results.
Now if we go back to the conference page, your chosen sessions will show up under the schedule on the right hand side, allowing you to join them or add them to your calendar.
