Hi, we installed this feature what looks great only one question. If an attendee clicks on the event registration link he need to sign in with a username and password. Other Servicenow access is always single sign on. Any ideas?

Hi Jolanda,

You can go to this link and change the value of Login page to what your organization has as a SSO login page and it will automatically redirect there. We have kept it empty as every organization has their own SSO page.

Thank you Sunilsing that worked!! Is there also an option that the event dashboard is adjusting to mobile layout after opening? If I open the invitation link from my phone the dashboard doesn't fit on my screen 🙂

Hi Parul,

 

Will this come an Utah-supported app too? Seems last supported in San Siago. 

 

Kind regards,

Wouter

Hi! Is it possible to install this app on PDI? Could you create an entitlement for my PDI for testing purposes?

Please let me know if it's possible, and I'll share my developer instance name.
