Checking in attendees to your event

In this workflow, you'll learn how to check registrants into your event, mark the ones who didn't come, and sign up any attendees who did not pre-register.

If your event is virtual, as long as you put the link in the proper location when you created the event, attendance is captured automatically.When a user signs in, they will be sent a special, unique link that not only takes them to the location of your virtual meeting, but will mark them as having completed the event.

Because of this, it is important to make sure that registrants don't share their unique links, but rather send out the RSVP links to their friends who may want to join.
