On the Run page, you will see a list of interfaces that you can use to manage and display audience responses throughout your event. They are the Audience Web App, Projector Panel, Moderator Panel, Admin Panel and Kiosk (if Kiosk has been enabled for your Pigeonhole). You can open each of these interfaces from the Run your event page by clicking on the “Open” button.

Direct session links to Admin Panel 

If you wish to share Panel links for individual sessions to different event collaborators, you can download an Excel file with direct session links for all the sessions. The Excel file will list the direct link to Admin Panel, Moderator Panel, and Projector Panel for each session in the Agenda.
