Events FAQ's
How can I duplicate the event?
To duplicate an event, select the event that you want to duplicate. In the top-right of the event’s home page, you’ll see Publish Event, Export Event Data, and a more options icon. From the more options icon, select Duplicate Event.
What happens when I add a user in the event team?
If the user already exists within the Eightfold system and has been associated with a role, then a new role (eventteamexternal) also gets added to their profile, and the user will get an event onboarding email. If the user does not exist already within the Eightfold system, an account will be created for them and they will be onboarded with the new role (eventteamexternal). The user will then get an account creation email to set up their account along with an event onboarding email.
How do I add candidates to the event?
