The Lobby of Your Event Room

When you share the event link directly with your attendees from your dashboard or from your event room, they will land on the lobby without having to go through the registration page. You and your team members will also go through it before entering the event room.

The lobby display varies according to who's joining. Your team members will be able to choose their devices and virtual background before participating in the room. On the other hand, your attendees will have to fill in your registration form with the fields you've set up.

The Lobby: Team Members View#

When you and your team members join the event room, you might have to log in to your Livestorm workspace if you're not logged in yet. Once you're logged in, the lobby lets you set up your mic and camera before entering the room. The event name and a countdown until the start are shown on the left, and you can see which account you're connected with at the top right (click Logout to switch accounts).

The lobby when you're logged in to your Livestorm account :

1 Choose your camera from the first dropdown.

2 Choose your microphone from the second dropdown.

3 Use the buttons on the preview to mute your mic or turn off your camera. The button on the right of the preview lets you choose a virtual background.

4 Turn on Noise cancelation if you're in a noisy place.

5 Click Join stage to participate in the event, or Watch event to watch it without joining the stage.

Under the session details, a small bar shows the avatars of the people already connected (for example "Sarah, Daniel and 46 others"). Click it to see who's on stage, who's in the Room, and which team members are still waiting in the lobby.

The Lobby: Attendees View#

When sending the event link to your attendees, they will be able to access the lobby without registering from the registration page. They will have to fill in the same fields that you've set up in your registration page (mandatory and custom ones) though and will be able to access the event once you start it.
