💡Good to know

  • To add several collaborators at once, separate the email addresses with a comma or a line break: collaborators are added independently.

  • Your collaborators will receive an automatic email informing them that they are invited to take part in the session as collaborators.

  • In the Collaborators & Hosts tab of the Settings, the Hosts block lets you invite people who present the session and manage participants live, without being able to edit the content.
