Adding Pigeonhole Live to live webinars hosted on ON24

How to add Pigeonhole Live to live webinars on ON24?

1. On your ON24 webcast platform, click on the Console Builder on the menu at the top of the page.

2. Then, click on the "widgets" button (as shown below) and select URL widget in the drop-down menu.

Note: The embedded Pigeonhole will not load within the Console Builder but will appear when viewed in the Console Preview. 

8. After making all the desired changes click the Save button to save all the changes made to the engagement tool.

The URL engagement tool supports the passing of event and user tokens so information can be passed into a webpage or application inside the engagement tool. To find out the full list of user tokens that can be passed to Pigeonhole live, go to the ON24 Knowledge Center → Search for URL Tool, and access the list of other User Tokens. 

You will need to add the corresponding Profile fields and settings on Pigeonhole Live for the user tokens you’ve selected on ON24 following the steps below.

User tokens

Use the user token templates provided below and customise it by adding your own Event Passcode and Session ID to create a custom user tokens for your event. 

User token for single session

Use this user token format for speaker sessions with just a single Q&A, Poll, or Chat session. The Pigeonhole Live Audience Web App will only display the Q&A, Poll, or Chat session that you have specified in your user token(in the Session ID). 

This user token format also disables the back button to keep attendees in the current session. 

Replace PASSCODE with your Event Passcode and SESSIONID with the Session ID for the session you want to direct your attendees to. 

You can find your Event Passcode and Session ID in your Pigeonhole Live Workspace (as shown below). 

User token for multiple sessions

Use this user token format if you have multiple Pigeonhole sessions (i.e. a combination of Q&A, Polls, and Chat) for your speaker session and want to allow your attendees to switch between sessions by accessing the agenda page (which lists all the sessions): 

Replace EVENTPASSCODE with your Event Passcode in this embed code template. You can find your Event Passcode in your Pigeonhole Live Workspace (as shown below).
