📌 *Later on, we will also see how to import assistants in bulk using Excel.*

## Complete the attendee's form

Clicking on **+ New attendee** opens the edit form, divided into several tabs.&#x20;

### Available fields

* **Order**: number to define the order of appearance in the app list. If we define it here, we must bear in mind that it must also be configured in the **app structure > Assistants section > Options > Order**.
* **Treatment**: Sir, Madam, Mr., Mrs., etc.
* **Name** *(mandatory)*
* **Surnames, Organisation, Position, Place of origin, Telephone, Website**
* **Email** (unique identifier, cannot be repeated)\
  Email allows you to:
  * Send communications by email
  * Grant access to the private profile (along with the password)

### Language and social media

* **Language**: defines the language in which you will receive emails, notifications, and alerts.
* **Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram**: optional fields to enrich your profile.

### Linking with exhibitors

* **Exhibitor**: links the attendee to an exhibiting company (if already created). This allows attendees to be filtered by company from the app.

### Visibility and privacy

* **In networking** ✅: enable this option if you want the profile to be visible in the app and for the assistant to be able to use features such as chat or meetings.

  > *The assistant can disable this visibility from their profile if they wish.*
* **Public personal data** ✅: When you select it, the telephone number and email address will be visible in the app.

  > *The assistant can also modify this option from their profile.*

### Additional information

* **Biography**: free field for the assistant to describe themselves.
* **Picture**
* **Categories**: allow you to segment attendees by interests, control access, or create specific sections.\
  *(They are created beforehand from Attendees Categories.)*

## Save to activate the other tabs

Once you have completed the fields, click **Save**. This will activate the rest of the profile tabs, which you can continue to edit to add more information or customise the assistant's experience.

## What if I want to edit an attendee that has already been created?

* Information for attendees
* Resources
* Registrations
* Meetings
* Captured QRs
* Contacts
* Accesses
* Player points

👉 In the following articles, we will explain each of these tabs step by step.
