# Event | Creating a Virtual Event & Meeting Link

## How to make an event virtual

#### **When creating an event (private or public), you can choose to make it virtual and enter a Zoom or Teams etc link**

On the Details tab of the event, you can choose to make the event a **Virtual event**. Once you do, you'll be prompted to add the Virtual Meeting Link; however, it is not required. You can create a Zoom link in your Zoom account or Microsoft Team etc and then *paste* that link into the "Virtual Meeting Link" field on the Details tab of the event in eSPACE.

- Keep in mind that if you use a link you must enter the link with the correct format **(must start with "http://" or "https://")** or the following warning will appear:

Marking an event as virtual will cause the following to happen:

- All users will be able to filter events by "virtual" on the internal calendar views.
- All users will be able to filter for "virtual" events in reports.
- No space, resource, or service will be required on the event.

 

Once the event is submitted and approved, it will also appear on the Dashboard and internal Calendar views with a tag that says "Virtual". You can also filter events on the internal calendar view by "Virtual".

#### **Virtual Events Require Approval**

These events will only require approval if an admin has enabled "Require Approval of Offsite/Virtual Events" under Settings \> Advanced \> General \> Event Creation.

To connect to your Virtual Event right from eSPACE simply click on the Event Name, then click on the **Summary Tab** and the link will appear as a clickable hyperlink.

### **TIPS*:***

- It's a good idea to change the name to include the word "Virtual" in the name (e.g. Men's Bible Study would change to Men's Bible Study-VIRTUAL).
- It might be helpful to create an **Event Category** called **Virtual** to help you with reporting and filtering.
- Additionally, you can select **Public** and enter your online meeting link into the **Public Link** field to have it appear on your **Public Calendar** as a clickable hyperlink.
