Session check-in and permissions

Use this when one event has multiple days, workshops, rooms, or time slots.

Session check-in and permissions illustration
Step 1

Choose a session check-in type

Use Session-specific check-ins when every scan must be attached to a session name.

Step 2

Add one session name per line

These names become the session selector used by check-in staff.

Step 3

Enable session permissions when needed

Add a column or form field named after each session. Put "yes" for attendees allowed into that session.

How it works

Sessions each guest is allowed into A yes or no in the column named after each session decides whether that guest is let into that session. Your sheet Name Week 1 Week 2 Ada Mensah yes no Sam Rivera yes yes staff select Week 2, then scan Sam Rivera Let in Ada Mensah Not for this session The column name must match the session name exactly, otherwise nobody is allowed in.
Write "yes" in the column named after a session to let that guest in.

Example

If Ada Mensah has "yes" under Workshop A, scans for that session pass. Other sessions fail.
