What is a Group?
Groups are different types of Participants to your event. This segmentation is helpful to manage the rights and communicate more efficiently to each Group.
By default, there are three Groups
- Attendees
- Speakers
- Exhibitors
Create a Group
It is possible to add more Groups if needed. Click on Add a Group create its name, and choose settings.

Settings: rights
You can then define what each Group can see (People, Exhibitors, Sessions, Items) and who they can talk to (in terms of Exhibitors only). When you are managing the rights for Exhibitor type Groups, you will also have the option to define what information for their booth they can edit, if they are allowed to add Members to their Booth, as well as type and limit of Items they can upload.

For each Group type, custom fields can be created to use as conditions in this section to determine what each Group type is allowed to see in terms of People, Exhibitors, Sessions and Items. To learn how to create custom fields, please refer to:
