Self Check-In lets your event guests log their attendance at your event without you needing to enter any information yourself.
Because the Self Check-In Form is actually just a survey, it can be as short as long as you like.
That means that you can also use it to:
Collect event feedback from event guests
Collect survey responses from event guests
Collect outcome assessments completed by event guests
Or capture any other information from event guests that could be useful to you
Steps to use Self Check-in
Turn on Self-registration from the event category level. Turn on Self Registration for New Guests

While creating the event you should choose the survey to use with the self check-in and registration form whenever someone visits the registration form to fill in their details for the event.Once you create an event then on the event page you will find two links in the self-registration section on the left side.
- Registration only
- Registration and Self check-inFor the Registration only link, a user could use the link to register for the event and when someone visits the page and completes the form, they finish on the Thank You page.
For the Registration and Self check-in link, when someone visits the page and completes the form, they finish on the Self Check-In page where they can select their name and complete the survey.
Once the user is registered through the link they get added to the event.
