What is in this article?

This article describes and refers to the four different session types that can be created in a main session or breakout session (as part of an agenda item).

What is a Session Type?

A session type represents a format for a session within STREAMBOXY. 

For more information on the concept of a "session", click here.

STREAMBOXY supports different session types within an event. For each session type you can define type-specific settings like the visibility of recordings for live streams or camera rights for conferences.

Our AddIn Model even allows you to embed your own session types for other conference solutions, breakout rooms etc. in STREAMBOXY.

As already mentioned, session types can be embedded in the main session (lobby) or in a breakout room. 

Detailed information on this can be found accordingly in the main session settings and in the agenda and session settings.
