Keep Track of Your Preferred Sessions

Some events would carry an overwhelming number of sessions. You can just plan and set your agenda by using the bookmark feature.

Bookmark Sessions

Bookmarking does not necessarily reserve you a seat in the session; this would still depend on the event admin settings. What it generally does is it adds the session to your favorites list or what we call "My Sessions"

Whether you're on the event landing page or event hub, bookmarking a session can be done by accessing the Agenda. Click Bookmark on a session, which will update to Attending when you've successfully bookmarked a session.

To view bookmarked sessions, go to My Sessions


Bookmark Sessions in the Attendee App

The attendee app also has an Agenda section. From the Sessions tab of the Agenda, click the star icon to bookmark the session. When the star icon changes to blue, you have successfully bookmarked the session.

Restrict Bookmark to Session Capacity

As mentioned earlier, bookmarking does not automatically pre-register an attendee to a session, but you can change the behavior to make bookmarks count toward the session capacity.

  • Go to Agenda & Speakers

  • Select Settings

  • Enable Restrict Bookmarks to Session Capacity


Once this is enabled, attendees who try to bookmark a session after the capacity has been reached will get the error message "This session is currently full; check back later."

Note: Restricting bookmarks to session capacity does not apply to in-person events.

Can I still attend a session that I did not bookmark?

How will attendees know if their bookmarked session pre-registered them or if it was only added the session to My Sessions?

  • There is no option for them to determine whether their bookmarked session pre-registered them or only added the session to My Sessions since only event admins can see the restrictions set for the sessions.

  • We suggest that if you are setting a capacity to sessions, enable the toggle to Restrict Bookmark to Session Capacity
