Be participant on a Beekast session
Beekast is an interactive platform that energizes meetings, events, and training sessions, whether online or in person. It offers a wide range of collaborative activities (brainstorming, polls, quizzes, icebreakers) and allows the integration of enriched presentation content.
Joining a session
You can access a Beekast session in three ways:
1. Using a 6-digit code
- Go to the Beekast login page.
- Enter the 6-digit code provided by the facilitator in the dedicated field.
- Click Join, then identify yourself using the selected method.
2. Via a public link
Click the participation link you received by email or that was shared by the facilitator. You will be redirected directly to the session and prompted to identify yourself.
3. Using a QR code
Scan the QR code with your smartphone and access the session immediately after identifying yourself.
Identifying yourself in the session
Before entering the session, you must identify yourself. The session owner selects the identification method applied to all participants.
Available identification methods:
- Anonymous avatar: an animal combined with an adjective. This is a quick identification method with no personal data required.
- Username: choose a nickname freely (first name, last name, initials, etc.).
- Email address: identification using your Beekast account (a free account is sufficient). If you are already logged in, you will be automatically directed to the session.
Participating in the session
Beekast offers two navigation modes within a session:
1. Live scrolling (controlled by the facilitator)
The facilitator controls slide progression and launches activities. Participants follow the presentation flow and can take part in activities when they are activated by the facilitator.
2. Self-paced scrolling
You can freely navigate through the session and scroll through the slides at your own pace as long as the session remains open. You can view content and participate in activities whenever you choose. Navigation is available using the directional arrows at the bottom right of the screen.
Participating on mobile
The Beekast platform is fully responsive: you can join a session, respond to activities, vote, and navigate through options from a smartphone or tablet.

The tools
Various tools are available directly in the Beekast session. The tools are located on the bar on the right-hand side of the screen. They allow you to interact and access information and documents that the facilitator has added to the session.
