Hi!

If i have an event with multiple sessions, is it possible to automatically register my attendee's to all sessions somehow? Anyone got ideas here? Many many thanks in advance! :)

Hey Jennifer,

Couple of questions here:

1. Are the events free or is there a pass associated?

2. Should your attendees have a choice in the session selection?

We don't enforce session registration today, since some customer prefer to manage session level registration individually. However, you can simply create a flow that creates a session registration record for your sessions and the right contact + event registration.

Thanks,

Shravan

Hi!

1. For now free (i removed the pass) In the future, the client asking for this would like to be able to take a payment and also set up some installment payment (not important right now)

2. No, the attendee should not have a choice in the matter, should automatically be added to all sessions.

Alternatively, i am so new with using this and i am so so frustrated as i do not know how to use it at all. Literally just want to create some sort of registration to ongoing events between a set period of time (twice a week from January until June)

I am not sure i understand what you mean by your last advice there.

I appreciate all help!

Hi @Jenoz,

Im glad you asked the community rather than staying frustrated and stuck on your own.

No reason for frustration, we are all still learning together.

Completely agreeing with @Shravan Suri here on the proposed solution.

I think what you we are saying is - if you are not using passes the marketing application OOTB will not generate session registration records for your contacts.

You can do that yourself though using Power Atomate (Flow).

Have a look at the documentation here

docs.microsoft.com/.../getting-started.

Conceptually the logic of the flow should be along the lines of-

- Trigger when person A registers for event B.

- get all sessions associated with event B

- for each of the sessions, create a session registration record with a link to the session and contact A.

Does this make a bit more sense?

The first time you create flows you might find it fiddly, be patient because it is nice and super powerful once you get used to it.

Thanks,

Hi Dilyana!

Thank you for replying to me! I think where my confusion happen is when I am trying to create a flow and what to chose as all the options seem to want to connect with for example a third party app or Sharepoint, Office etc. Where can i simply find event triggers?

I am really confused. Don't really have anyone in the office with this type of knowledge either

Thank you!

The documentation around flows is quite good, you might need to dig deeper.

There are no event triggers as such.

As a starting point, you need a flow created from blank (not from a template) > then your connection is to the 'common data service' > trigger 'when record is created' > and select your environment and Event registration.

This will run every time a new contact registers for anything. You can add some filters to only run on a selected event.

Hope that gets you started. Then you need the session registration bit described above.

Thanks,

-DD
