Swoogo integration

Change it in Swoogo. It's already in the app.

Registrants, sessions, speakers, sponsors, tracks and locations reach your Highbar event app as they change in Swoogo, so attendees never open yesterday's agenda.

One way. Highbar never edits your Swoogo event.

What syncs

Your whole Swoogo event, in one import.

Then it keeps up on its own. New, changed and deleted records arrive as they happen, with a scheduled check as a safety net.

  • Registrants

    Name, email, company, job title and phone

    Your attendee list

    Who can log in to your app

  • Sessions

    Times, descriptions, capacity, tracks and locations

    A schedule section

    In your event's timezone

  • Speakers

    Bios, titles and photos

    A speakers section

    Linked to their sessions

  • Sponsors

    Descriptions, websites, levels and logos

    A sponsors section

  • Statuses and pass types

    Confirmed and Attended, every pass type, by default

    Who gets access

    You choose, and can change it anytime

How it works

Connected from one panel.

Open Integrations from your event's Content or Access page. Everything below happens there.

  1. 1

    Add your API credentials

    Paste your Swoogo API key and secret, from My Profile › API Credentials in Swoogo. Highbar checks them before moving on.

  2. 2

    Choose what comes across

    Pick the event, the statuses and pass types that get access, and where sessions, speakers and sponsors go. Counts and sample names show what's coming.

  3. 3

    Import

    Click Import & Connect and watch it run. Cancel partway and the attendees it added are removed again.

  4. 4

    Stay in sync

    New and changed records arrive as they happen in Swoogo. If Swoogo ever has downtime, Sync now catches up straight away.

Your call

You decide who gets in, and which edits win.

  • Statuses that count

    Confirmed and Attended are imported by default. Change the list anytime and see how many attendees it adds or removes before you save.

  • Pass types, filtered

    Keep some pass types out of the app. Registrants with no pass type still get in, and new pass types are included until you untick them.

  • Content where you want it

    Send sessions, speakers and sponsors to a new section, add them to one you already have, or leave them out.

  • Your edits stay yours

    Edit a synced session, speaker or sponsor in Highbar and your change is kept. That field stops updating from Swoogo.

  • Deleted means hidden

    A session, speaker or sponsor deleted in Swoogo is hidden in your app, not deleted, so nothing vanishes by accident.

  • Careful removals

    Someone who leaves your chosen statuses loses access, unless they've completed their profile or you added them yourself. Unusually large removals wait for you.

Frequently asked questions

Does Highbar change anything in Swoogo?

No. Highbar reads your registrants and content and never edits them. Registration stays in Swoogo.

How quickly do changes show up?

As they happen. Swoogo tells Highbar about every new, changed or deleted record, and a scheduled check catches anything missed. Sync now pulls recent changes straight away.

Which registrants get access to the app?

Those with a registration status and pass type you import. Confirmed and Attended are on by default, and every pass type is included until you untick it. Incomplete registrations never come across.

Why doesn't my attendee count match Swoogo's?

Swoogo's total can include incomplete, cancelled or test registrations, or pass types you haven't chosen to import. Check your statuses and pass types under Manage, then compare like with like.

What if I remove someone who's still registered in Swoogo?

They come back at the next sync while they still have a status and pass type you import. To keep someone out, change their registration in Swoogo, or change which statuses or pass types you import.

What happens if I disconnect?

Syncing stops, and the attendees and content already synced stay in your event. You can connect another platform after.
