The Networking tab in the Event App is where attendees find each other. It has two halves: Participants, a searchable directory of everyone attending, and My meetings, the 1:1 meetings they have booked. Built for conferences and business events where meeting the right person is the reason people came.

Turning it on

Two switches on the event form, under Features: Editing them needs event ownership, EVENT_LOCAL, EVENT_TENANT or ADMIN_TENANT.

The participant directory

Attendees can search by name, filter by country, and filter to people they have saved. Each card shows the photo, name, headline, country, bio (expandable), LinkedIn and Bluesky links, and phone and email when the person has chosen to share them. Who appears in it
  • People whose registration is Registered, Invited, or Awaiting invoice payment, and not cancelled.
  • Only people with an email address on file. A registration with no email is skipped.
  • One card per person, even if they hold several tickets.
  • Up to 500 people. Larger events show the first 500 by surname.
Organisers (ADMIN_TENANT, EVENT_TENANT, EVENT_LOCAL) see the full roster in this tab too, including people who hid themselves, with phone and email unmasked regardless of the individual’s privacy choices. The Participants tab is the same data in the administrative screen.

Privacy controls

Every attendee controls their own visibility from the Profile tab, and the choice applies to every event they attend, not just this one.
For members these are the same privacy flags as their normal Orgo profile, so a change made here also applies across the platform, and the other way round. For non-member attendees the flags live on their contact record.
Attendees can also edit their photo, headline, bio, LinkedIn, Bluesky and town from the Profile tab. Name, email and phone values themselves are managed on the member or contact record, not here.

Connections

Connect sends a lasting connection request, the same relationship used elsewhere in Orgo, not just for this event. The recipient accepts or rejects it; the card shows Connect, Pending, Awaits you, or Connected. There is a fifth state: after a rejection the card shows a greyed-out, non-clickable Connect tag, visually near-identical to the live button.
  • Only members can send and receive connection requests. Non-member attendees do not have this button; 1:1 meetings are their equivalent.
  • One connection per pair of people.
  • Removing an accepted connection deletes it and the pair can connect again. Rejecting or withdrawing a pending one is effectively permanent from inside the Event App: the card keeps showing a greyed-out Connect and the request is refused, and the 21-day cooldown that applies elsewhere in Orgo never lifts here.

1:1 meetings

Meetings are fixed 15-minute slots.
1

Pick a person

Tap Book 1:1 on their card, or scan their badge QR code and book from the result panel.
2

Pick a slot

The grid shows every 15-minute slot in the event’s agenda, day by day, with a status: available, warned, or full. Warned means it clashes with a meeting you already have or with an agenda session you said you would attend. You can still book a warned slot.
3

Add a message and send

The meeting is created as pending and a space is assigned automatically. Both people get an email and an in-app notification.
4

The other person accepts or declines

Accepting moves it to confirmed. Declining releases the slot back to everyone else. Either person can cancel a meeting at any point until the slot has passed, and the other one is notified.
How the slot grid is built
  • Only days that have at least one agenda session are bookable, and only between the first start and the last end on that day. An event with no agenda has no bookable slots.
  • Slots are aligned to :00, :15, :30 and :45.
  • Sessions marked as not available for networking are cut out of the grid.
  • A slot is full when no space has capacity left. Pending and confirmed meetings hold capacity; declined and cancelled ones release it.
My meetings groups the results into Pending incoming, Pending outgoing, Confirmed, and Past and canceled, with a day filter across the top.

Networking spaces

Spaces are the rooms or tables the meetings happen in. Without at least one space, no slot has capacity and nothing can be booked. Open the event and use Networking spaces in the event sidebar. The entry appears once Enable 1:1 networking is on, and only for people who can manage the event (event owner, EVENT_LOCAL, EVENT_TENANT or ADMIN_TENANT). Networking spaces admin screen listing spaces with name and capacity per slot, and the Add space form open Attendees never choose a space. It is assigned when the meeting is created. Deleting a space keeps existing meetings at their slot but they lose the space reference.

Saved people

Scanning another attendee’s badge QR code offers to save them. Saved people are filterable in the directory with the Saved pill. This is a private, per-event list for the person who scanned. It creates no connection and writes nothing to your contact records.

Troubleshooting

Visibility of attendee list is off for that event. Turn it on in the event’s Features section.
Check three things: Enable 1:1 networking is on, the event has agenda sessions (the bookable window comes from the agenda), and at least one networking space exists.
Either they set their profile visibility to organisers only, their registration has no email address on file, or their registration status is not one that grants access. An organiser sees hidden attendees in this tab anyway, so compare what they describe against what you see rather than against the Participants tab.
That is the default for non-member attendees: their phone and email start private and stay hidden until they choose to share. Members start with both visible.
Total capacity is the sum of the capacity of your spaces. With one 1:1 table only one meeting can happen per 15 minutes across the whole event. Add spaces or raise their capacity per slot.
Connections are a member-to-member relationship. Non-member attendees use 1:1 meetings instead.
