# Set up interactivity

## When you organize an online session, inwink gives you the opportunity to poll the participants / display Call-to-Action (CTA) buttons. This is done through interactivities.

### 1. Activate interactivities on a session

The first step if you want to use interactivities on a session is to activate the feature for this specific session.

When you edit a session, first make sure the **Session type** is **Online session**, for interactivities are only available on online sessions.

Then, in the options of the session, tick the **Show the interactivity tab** checkbox. A new **Interactivity** tab appears in the session edition window.

### Create interactivities

### A. Polls

#### 1. Create polls

In the back-office, go to the **All sessions** menu, and edit the session for which you want to create polls.

Go to the **Interactivity** tab.

Click on the **+** button at the top left corner of the window, and select the kind of poll you want to add:

![Types of polls](https://storageprdv2inwink.blob.core.windows.net/bohelp/assets/pictures/02_Evenements/4_online_events/PollsList.png)***Types of polls***

- **Multi select** : the participants will have to choose one or more answers in a list of options
- **Single select**: the participants will have to choose one unique answer in a list of options
- **Yes / No**: the participants will have to answer to a Yes / No question (you can edit the Yes / No labels)

#### A. MULTI SELECT POLLS

![Multi select polls before and after the answer](https://storageprdv2inwink.blob.core.windows.net/bohelp/assets/pictures/02_Evenements/4_online_events/OnlinePolls.png)***Multi select polls before and after the answer***

#### 2. Create polls in the event website

Speakers can create and manage polls directly on the website:

![Add polls as a speaker on the website](https://storageprdv2inwink.blob.core.windows.net/bohelp/assets/pictures/02_Evenements/4_online_events/Add%2520poll%2520from%2520session.png)***Add polls as a speaker on the website***

In order to be able to do so, the speaker needs to be:

- added as a speaker of a session in the session edition page
- logged in with the email address used in his/her profile in the back-office
- in the virtual room of the session

#### 3. Start and stop polls

Once a poll is created, in the back-office or in the session virtual room on the website, click on :

- the Start button to start the poll
- the Stop button to stop the poll

![Start and Stop a poll from the Back-Office / the event website](https://storageprdv2inwink.blob.core.windows.net/bohelp/assets/pictures/02_Evenements/4_online_events/StartandStop.png)***Start and Stop a poll from the Back-Office / the event website***

#### 4 Edit, delete and export answers

In the Back-Office of the event, you can edit, delete and export the answers of polls by clicking on the  button ![](https://help.inwink.com/hubfs/image-png-Oct-11-2022-12-30-53-00-PM.png).

![Edit, export answers, delete options](https://storageprdv2inwink.blob.core.windows.net/bohelp/assets/pictures/02_Evenements/4_online_events/EditDeletExport.png)***Edit, export answers, delete options***

### B. Actions

#### 1. Create actions

Actions can be created both in the back-office of your event and in the your event website, provided the person creating them has a Speaker / Administrator role for the session. However, on the website, speakers / moderators can only create actions that link to a published page of the website, or an external URL, while in the back-office, more possibilities are proposed.

In the back-office, go to the **All sessions** menu, and edit the session for which you want to create polls.

Go to the **Interactivity** tab.

Click on the **+** button at the top left corner of the window, and select the **Action** item, then click on Next at the bottom right corner of the window:

![Actions](https://storageprdv2inwink.blob.core.windows.net/bohelp/assets/pictures/02_Evenements/4_online_events/Actionitem.png)***Actions***

On the next screen, fill in the following fields :

- **Title** (optional): give a title to your action, it will appear as a title above the call-to-action button (80 characters max, so be concise)
- **Description** (optional): give a description of what the button is going to do (165 characters max)
- **Action button label** (mandatory): enter the label of the button you are creating (60 characters max, though you should keep the label as short as possible)
- **Action button link** (mandatory) : select what the button will do (go to a page of the event, download a file, send an email and so on)

![Action item edition](https://storageprdv2inwink.blob.core.windows.net/bohelp/assets/pictures/02_Evenements/4_online_events/Actionbutton.png)***Action item edition***

Click on Validate at the bottom right corner of the window to save the action item.

#### 2. Show / hide action items during the session

Once the action item is created, it should appear in the back-office of your event in the **Interactivity** tab of your session, and in the event website, in the interactivity tab of the session if you are logged in as a speaker / moderator of the session :

![On the left, an action item in the Back-Office, on the right, an action item on the event website](https://storageprdv2inwink.blob.core.windows.net/bohelp/assets/pictures/02_Evenements/4_online_events/Actionsitems.png)***On the left, an action item in the Back-Office, on the right, an action item on the event website***

To display the button to participants, click on **SHOW**. Once this is done, the action item will automatically be displayed to all participants in the interactivity tab of the session on the event website.

You can then decide to hide the action item by clicking on **HIDE**.

The action items will be displayed in chronological order according to their publication date. They will always be displayed above the polls you might also launch during the session.
