  • In-person and browser check-in
  • Attendance organized by event
  • Returning people, one visitor list

Make it your own

Give each session a recognizable name

These are examples of separate events you can create. Choose names that your participants and team will recognize.

Adult pottery introduction

Keep this session’s recorded check-ins together and find them again with the event filter.

Watercolor workshop

Keep this session’s recorded check-ins together and find them again with the event filter.

Community craft evening

Keep this session’s recorded check-ins together and find them again with the event filter.

A simple routine for your sessions

Start at the materials table

Place the check-in device near the entrance or materials collection point. Select the session before participants begin working.

Keep questions practical

If the instructor needs experience level or a workshop preference, add a relevant custom question. Keep the arrival flow short and export recorded answers when useful.

One event, one attendance record

From the first arrival to the last check-in

Create a separate event for each session you want to review independently.

Step 1

Create your event

Give the session a recognizable name. Add an optional date, time, and description. Dates are informational: they do not automatically activate or expire a session.

Step 2

Choose how people check in

For in-person attendance, select the active event on each app device. For online attendance, choose the event when creating a web check-in link and share that link with participants.

Step 3

Review who attended

Use the dashboard’s Check-Ins tab and event filter to review the session’s recorded attendance. Export CSV when you need to work with it in a spreadsheet.

Event-specific setup requires Events to be enabled for your organization. Sharing web check-in links also requires online check-in to be enabled. Creating an account does not automatically enable these features.

A familiar welcome for new and returning people

Bring your visitor list

Import names and emails from CSV, with optional phone numbers. Importing does not create visits or send emails.

Ask what you need

Use optional custom questions to collect relevant session information. Returning participants follow the flow’s existing completion rules.

Take your attendance with you

Export dashboard records to CSV. Include custom questions when you need the answers recorded on each check-in.

Designed here for adult and general classes. Each participant needs their own identifying email or phone. Use your existing tools for enrollment, scheduling, payments, and any participation or progression assessments.

Art Class Attendance App for Pottery and Enrichment Classes: questions

Can new participants join the same check-in flow as regulars?

Yes. New participants provide the requested information; returning participants are matched using the configured email or phone identifier. Both can have their check-in associated with the same event.

Do returning participants have to start over?

The check-in flow looks up the participant using the configured email or phone identifier. Returning participants follow the information and question requirements for that flow. Each person needs their own identifying email or phone; shared family profiles are not part of this workflow.

Can I bring an existing participant list?

Yes. Import Visitors in the web dashboard accepts a CSV with required names and emails and optional phone numbers. Existing emails are skipped. Importing adds people without creating attendance or sending invitations.

Does an event date automatically open a class?

No. Create and select each session yourself. The app’s active event is selected independently on each device, and a web check-in link uses the event associated with that link.

Can I include custom questions in an attendance export?

Yes. Enable Include custom questions when downloading the dashboard CSV. Check-in rows contain answers recorded on that visit; missing answers remain blank.
