What is the event overview?

The event overview is the first page you are navigated to after logging in to the backstage.

What navigation options are available?

From this overview you have the following options 

• create new events,
• edit existing events, 
  • edit
  • sort them
• navigate to the Content Manager
• navigate to the Tenant Manager,
• navigate to the tenant settings and
• navigate to your user settings.

The respective options include various setting options, which are explained in more detail below.

Create new events

When you log in to STREAMBOXY Backstage for the first time, there are usually no events created there yet. 

You will only see the "Add" button in the event overview ("My events"). 

If you click on this button, you will be taken to the event creation page. We have explained all the setting options in our article "Event creation and general event properties".

If you have already created events, you can add further events at any time under "Add" in the top right-hand corner.

Here too, clicking on the button will take you to the event creation page. All setting options are explained in our article "Event creation and general event properties".

Edit existing events

If you have created an event, you can also edit and sort it. 

To edit an event, click on the cogwheel next to the event you want to edit.

You will also find further setting options under the three dots to the right of the event you have created.

You can delete the event there, for example.

Please note: If you delete the event, you cannot restore it yourself.

For this reason, there is also an additional confirmation window for this function.

Under the delete event there is the possibility to add the event to your calendar. 

Click on "Add to calendar" to automatically download an .ics file in your browser. This can be found in the download area of the respective browser and must be executed by double-clicking in order to appear in your calendar.

The exports of survey results and attendance possible in the event overview are not editing options, which is why we will not go into further detail in this article. Information on the content of these exports can be found in the linked documentation articles.

The last setting option in the "Other actions" list is the option to duplicate the event with all of its settings. 

Please note: Only the event settings made and not the event user list are copied. 

When duplicating the event, the event is labelled as follows "Existing event name - Copy" in order to distinguish the two events from each other.

In addition, the event date (start and end) is set one day later than the original event.

The event users are not copied so that the copy title or the event date and times can be adjusted again before an automatic e-mail is sent, for example.

If the same event users are required for the event, you can export them in the event user list in the old event and import them again in the new event once the settings have been checked.

Both the button with the screen (opens the stage) and the button with the person and the pen (event user list) are not direct setting options in this overview. More detailed explanations of all content can be found in the linked documentation articles.

Sort existing events

If you have created an event, you can also edit and sort it. 

There are various options for sorting events in the event overview. 

You can sort your events roughly under my events by

• All (All events created by you (latest event start at the top) are displayed here)
• Upcoming (only upcoming events are displayed here according to the start time; the event status is not decisive here)
• Past (Only past events are displayed here according to the start time; the event status is not decisive here)

sort.

You can also edit the respective columns of the events.

You can show these at the top right under the column symbol 

• fade in (tick is set) or
  
• Hide (tick is not set).
  

The columns that are already predefined are as follows

• Title
• Start
• End
• Type
• Status
• Created by
• Created on
• Edited by
• Edited on

In addition, all custom properties created by you in the tenant settings are also displayed there as column filters.

To save the settings you have made, click on "Save columns" at the bottom of the selection.

If you want to reset the settings you have made, you can do this by clicking on the reset arrow.

The columns displayed in the event overview can also be customised according to your requirements

• to other locations (click on the six dots and drag the column to your desired location),
  
  
• enlarged (move your mouse between two columns and drag the size to the desired ratio),
• reduced (move your mouse between two columns and drag the size to the desired ratio),
• from A-Z (click on the two opposite arrows next to each column title) and
  
• from Z-A (click on the two opposite arrows next to each column title).
  

Please note: The settings made in the event overview are only displayed locally in your browser. They are not adopted and displayed for all Backstage users.
