The Cvent to Accelevents integrations allows you to register attendees to the event through Cvent and automatically add them as attendees in Accelevents.
How Does It Work?
In Accelevents, you'll need to enable the Cvent integration and choose which ticket type to assign to attendees coming from Cvent. Then, in your Cvent account, you'll need to create a webhook and associate that webhook to your Cvent event. Once done, registrations coming from Cvent will automatically be added to Accelevents.
Before You Begin
Before you begin make sure you've already done the following:
✅ The event and ticket type is created in Accelevents
✅ The event is created in Cvent
Enable the Cvent Integration in Accelevents
Go to Settings > Integrations in your event's admin console
Enable the toggle for Cvent
Click Configure
Copy the API Key. You will add this to your webhook in Cvent
Select which ticket type to assign to attendees imported from Cvent
Click Save
Create a Webhook in CVENT
Log in to your CVENT account
Click App Switcher on the upper right
Select Admin
Go to Integrations > Push API Integrations
Click Create Integration
Give your integration a name (e.g. Accelevents event name)
Choose Webhooks for Type
Paste this end point URL:
https://api.accelevents.com/rest/integration/cvent/hometo Default endpointSelect Token-based for Connection Type
Paste the API Key you copied in Accelevents to Authentication token
Click Save
After saving, go to Integration Points
Click Add Integration Point
Select these 3 items:
Invitee/Guest Registered for Event

Invitee/Guest Event Registration Cancelled
Click Save
After saving you should see your integration points added.
Associate the Webhook to the Cvent Event
Click App Switcher on the upper right
Select Events and open the event for editing
Go to Integrations
In Other Available Integrations, you should see Webhooks
Click Set up under Webhooks
Click Add Webhooks
Select the webhook you created for this event under Configuration, then click Save.
Click Edit
Enable Override Account Settings
Select No for Sessions and Speakers (as we can only sync attendees)
Click Save
That's it! When you add new attendees in Cvent, orders will be created in Accelevents with the ticket you selected in the configuration.
Note: If you're integrating multiple events, you'll need to repeat the same steps above for each event as the webhook is specific to an event.

Aside from the attendee's name and email address, these other information from their Cvent contact record can be imported to Accelevents. Just make sure that the order form fields are active in Accelevents.
