Upload and edit photos directly in your browser.

Custom Attendee Records and Fields

Build detailed attendee profiles with custom fields like role, VIP status, or dietary needs. Add photos, notes, and metadata to each record.

Create Attendee

Navigate to the Attendees section and click "New Attendee".

Fill in required fields: name, email, and event role.

Add Custom Fields

Save and Update

Save the record. Changes sync in real-time across your team.

Use custom fields to tailor records to your event's needs, like backstage access or sponsor notes.

For API integration, create attendees programmatically:

const response = await fetch('https://api.credential.studio/v1/attendees', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: { 'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY', 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    name: 'John Doe',
    email: 'john@example.com',
    customFields: { role: 'VIP', access: 'backstage' }
  })
});

import requests

response = requests.post(
  'https://api.credential.studio/v1/attendees',
  headers={'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY', 'Content-Type': 'application/json'},
  json={'name': 'John Doe', 'email': 'john@example.com', 'customFields': {'role': 'VIP', 'access': 'backstage'}}
)
