Why This Matters

Requiring a Community account created friction for public events and external audiences. Whether you were trying to host a webinar, invite a guest speaker, or showcase your organization to prospective members, that extra step often meant lost attendance.

Session Public Access removes that barrier - turning your sessions into a true channel for outreach, engagement, and growth.

A Seamless Guest Experience

Guests get a simple, frictionless path from registration to attendance:

• Register quickly
  Guests enter their name, company, and email — no account creation needed
• Receive a secure access link
  A personalized magic link is sent to their inbox
• Join with one click
  When the session starts, they can jump right in — no login required
• Stay on track with reminders
  Automated emails (3-day and 15-minute) keep them informed

Built-in Controls for Admins

You stay in control of when and where public access is available.

• Enable public attendees at the site level
• Open individual sessions at the global or group level
• Customize restricted content messaging to guide guests toward membership
• Choose what information (like attendee lists or counts) is visible

Easy to Share, Easy to Promote

Every session includes a shareable URL with rich preview support, so when you post it within your Community or with platforms like LinkedIn, it looks polished and clickable.

Since there’s no public session calendar, you can promote sessions wherever your audience already is - driving traffic directly to registration.

Where to Find It

To get started:

• Enable public attendees in Permissions (Security & Privacy)
• Open a session and set Session Restriction → Public Attendees

From there, you’re ready to share your session link and start inviting guests.

Open the Door to More Engagement

Session Public Access makes it possible to go beyond your existing membership - helping you reach new audiences, increase attendance, and turn sessions into a powerful growth tool for your organization.
