Create webinar method takes the following settings:

```auto
 "settings": {
    "host_video": "boolean",
    "panelists_video": "boolean",
    "practice_session": "boolean",
    "hd_video": "boolean",
    "approval_type": "integer",
    "registration_type": "integer",
    "audio": "string",
    "auto_recording": "string",
    "enforce_login": "boolean",
    "enforce_login_domains": "string",
    "alternative_hosts": "string",
    "close_registration": "boolean",
    "show_share_button": "boolean",
    "allow_multiple_devices": "boolean"
  }

```

Update webinar takes the following settings:

```auto
"settings": {
    "host_video": "boolean",
    "panelists_video": "boolean",
    "practice_session": "boolean",
    "hd_video": "boolean",
    "approval_type": "integer",
    "registration_type": "integer",
    "audio": "string",
    "auto_recording": "string",
    "enforce_login": "boolean",
    "enforce_login_domains": "string",
    "alternative_hosts": "string",
    "close_registration": "boolean",
    "show_share_button": "boolean",
    "allow_multiple_devices": "boolean",
    "registrants_confirmation_email": "boolean"
  }

```

I suggest adding the “registrants confirmation email” settings to the Create Webinar API method. It is very confusing and right now I have to first create the webinar, then update it to automatically set this setting.

Hi,

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

I will update this thread, once the features have been added.

Thanks,
