This includes:

- Invitation Email
- Confirmation Email
- Reminder email
- Follow-up emails (Attendee and Absentee)

Also the branding settings for **Post Attendee URL** and **Post Webinar Survey**

There is also missing functionality to control Update + Cancellation notification emails to the attendee. They cannot be disabled from UI or API (for instance, when the date is changed or the event is deleted it sends what seems to be a non-configurable email to the registrant)

Hi @gagathos,

Thank you for suggesting these features. I will forward this request to our development team, so that they can add these features in our future releases.

I will update this thread once the features are live.

Thanks,

We’d require webinar branding (specifically logo) to be customizable as well through the API.

Thanks, but cannot see the API calls to do this?

Hey @jimig,

Can you try this endpoint, and pass in the Webinar ID instead of a Meeting ID?

Hey,

Any idea when additional settings could be added to the API? In particular:

- the ability to enable / disabled Q&A and related options like “allow anonymous questions”.
- whether or not panelists receive e-mail notifications, reminders options and the content of sent notifications.

Thanks in advance.

Hey @go12,

Webinar Q&A API settings are on the roadmap. Stay updated here:

We do plan on offering more email notification related API configurations in the future. 🙂

Thanks,
