Live Events, Broadcasts, and Networking Breakouts

Run Cammonly Live events with the right room mode, end controls, and networking setup.

1. Enter the studio with the correct live type

Virtual and hybrid events use Cammonly Live. Open the studio from the event dashboard only after the event draft, schedule, and ticket setup are already stable.

Your first decision is the room style: Broadcast when the audience mostly watches, or Interactive when attendees need mic and camera participation.

2. Start and end cleanly

Use Go Live only when hosts, co-hosts, and production cues are ready. The room state and attendee experience depend on that transition, so avoid casual start-stop testing on the live event itself.

When the event is over, end the room from the studio instead of abandoning it. That keeps attendance, recordings, and live state transitions consistent.

Checklist

  • - Camera and microphone tested before opening the room
  • - Broadcast vs. Interactive mode chosen intentionally
  • - Co-hosts or speakers added before the audience joins

3. Use networking breakouts, not automated speed dating

Cammonly supports networking breakouts with discovery panels and self-assignment. That is the supported mode for structured mingling inside the live room.

Legacy speed_dating values are normalized into networking mode. Automated dating rotation is currently disabled for compliance, so do not promise timed matchmaking rounds in your tutorial copy or attendee instructions.
