How to create a session

To create a session

First step

Once connected to your account, and in My sessions space, click on Create a session on the top right of your screen.

Second step

Once a session has been created, default settings are applied. You can of course change them once you are in the session:

- The default scrolling mode is set up, scrolling by the Facilitator or synchronous mode. 

- The session will automatically be saved with the name "New session + creation date"

- The identification/connexion mode, which is by avatar

To change the title, click on the pencil to the right of the predefined title and press "Enter"or click outside the box. You will see a green pop-up on the right of the page to notify you of the change. 

It is now possible to change the identification mode once the session has been created.
