Session Name Generator
The Session Name Generator gives administrators the ability to automatically assign names to new sessions based on a variety of options. You can use a sequential number, a random 5-digit value, a field from the submission form, or build a custom name template using dynamic variables.
Use the descriptions below to choose the naming method that best fits your setup.
Naming Options
Running Number: Automatically names sessions using a sequential count starting from 1.
Random Number: Assigns each session a unique 5-digit number.
Field in Form: Allows you to use an existing field from the submission form as the session name. After selecting this option, a dropdown will appear for you to choose the field.
Template: Use this option to generate a session name from a customizable string. Include static text or pull in values from the form using “@” followed by the field reference. For example, you could combine the session type with a random number or a speaker name.
Do not change the naming option after submissions have been received. Updating the logic after session data exists may result in naming inconsistencies or data loss from earlier entries.
