Event Speakers as Webinar Panelists

Last updated : 01/05/2020

Synchronise Event Speakers to GoToWebinar as Panelists

The GoToWebinar Plugin creates a Scheduled Process called “GoToWebinar – Create Panelists” as part of the installation. This process automatically registers Event Speakers as GoToWebinar Panelists for any Events that have been synchronised with GoToWebinar using the “Create Webinar” process outlined here

The integration will find any Event Speaker that has an email address populated on the associated Person record in the “Email Address” standard Workbooks field. The Event Speaker record must also have the “Published” checkbox set to TRUE.

NOTE: Custom Fields, or the Alternate Email address field are not supported, and will not work for this process. The Event Attendee will be ignored.

Upon successful registration, each Speaker will receive an email from GoToWebinar with details of how to join the Webinar as a Panelist and a summary of the Webinar they have been registered to. The content of the registration email can be configured directly in GoToWebinar as required, unless it has been switched off during creation. The GoToWebinar integration sets these fields on each Event Speaker:
