Participant Type

The article was updated 6 months ago. A Participant type is used to group users based on their role or classification within the system. The Participant Type concept controls which features each group has access to, ensuring users only see what's relevant to their participant type.

Restricting Features by Participant Types

A Touchpoint Manager can restrict one or more Features to display on the app's navigation menu based on Participant Type(s).

To implement this, the Manager should first assign Participant Type(s) to their Attendee(s), then designate specific Features to only be visible to one or more Participant Type(s).

Step 1: Add Participant Type(s) to the Event

Navigate to Related Resources > Participant Types.

Click + New to create a new Participant Type.

Step 2: Assign Participant Type(s) to an Attendee's Profile

Navigate to Main Navigation > Attendees.

Edit next to an Attendee.

Scroll down to RESTRICT CONTENT, then select one or more Participant Type(s) from the dropdown menu.

Click Save & View.

Click Save & List.

Step 3: Choose a Feature to restrict based on Participant Type

Go to Main Navigation > Edit (or Event Design > Features/Menu).

Select a Feature (i.e., Agenda).

Scroll down to Participant Types, and check off the Participant Type(s) you want to see this button on the app's navigation menu.

Participant Types that are not checked will NOT see this button.

If NO Participant Types are checked, then ALL Participant Types will see this button.
