How are agendas and sessions managed?

Short answer: Sessions are created (one-by-one or bulk import), reviewed/approved, scheduled and published, organized into multi-level agendas in the Touchpoint app or session catalog for attendees — and Event Advisor can personalize agendas (Fill My Day, nudges, recommendations) using registration and live behavior.

Details

• Creation & import
• Add sessions manually or import via CSV/XLS(X). For conference-style sessions you import twice: once to create sessions/instances, then again to schedule instances. Custom fields must be added to the Session Layout for use in imports.

• Review and approval workflow
• Sessions can move through Submitted → Under Review → Approved (or be rejected). You can process reviews individually or in bulk, accept/reject, or route to tiers; automatic processing can apply when configured.

• Scheduling & publishing
• Use the Session Scheduler (location-based grid or a “without location” grid) to place instances on date/time/location. You can drag/drop, edit, unpublish. Optionally enable Automatically Publish Sessions or change status manually. Mass Actions let you change status, tracks, types, tags, capacities, or publish to attendee types for many sessions at once.

• Agenda structure in the Touchpoint app
• Touchpoint supports multi-level agendas: top‑level sessions with child (sub) sessions, draggable re-ordering of sub-sessions, moving sessions into/out of parents. The app shows session children and lets you manage hierarchy visually.

• How sessions are presented to attendees (Session Catalog)
• The Session Catalog Designer controls layout and which sessions are Highlighted/Promoted/General, plus filters and grouping to shape attendee-facing catalogs and “My Sessions.”

• Personalization and agenda automation (Event Advisor)
• Event Advisor uses registration answers and live behavior to recommend sessions, booths, and meetings, can auto-build a full agenda with Fill My Day, surface timed nudges, and lets planners fine-tune recommendation models to drive desired engagement and revenue signals.
