Once you have setup your Swoogo account, you can create your Activation(s) inside of Captello. Once created, attendees can engage with your Activation in one of three ways:

...

When linking to an Activation, simply add the Activation URL as a link anywhere on your Swoogo site. For example, you could have a button that letting lets users sign up.

In the example above, the "SIGN UP" button leads to a Waypoint with a capture form. The Waypoint awards points toward the event's Global Leaderboard.

...

Normally Activations are connected to an Event Capture form. While these forms are great for surveys, you may not want your attendees to have to fill out another form. If this is the case, Captello can automatically identify the following information:

...

To enable Auto Identification, launch the Activation and select Without Capture. Copy the URL and append the following code to the end of the HTMLURL.

Code Block
&ll_3p_email=*/registrant-email/*&ll_3p_fn=*/registrant-first_name/*&ll_3p_ln=*/registrant-last_name/*&ll_3p_co=*/registrant-company/*&ll_3p_ign_act=1%22
