Add a New Bio

In the SCP (on left side of the page), click on Bios (located under Metadata) to begin.

Once you click on the Bios, if you have created any content in this section, you will see this information appear (Name, Date Created, Type - ex. Speaker, Worship Leader, etc.)

To Create a new Bio, click on the blue +Add New Bio button on the top right of page

Accounts with AI Discover enabled will see a Type selector when adding a new bio: Person or Object (Display Name and Short Description only — no names or titles needed for things like a piano, guitar, or shirt).
Accounts without AI Discover won't see this selector.

Accounts with AI Discover can also filter the Bios list by People, Objects, or All types, making it easier to find what you're searching for.

Next, enter the First Name, Last Name, Short Description and Titles to the Bio and click on the blue Add Bio button. In this step, please only use the following characters:

Uppercase and lowercase characters
Numbers
Periods and dashes

Note: Once the Bio is created, you are NOT able to change the first and last name on the Bio. If there is an error that occurs when you are entering the data, you will be able to update the Display Name in the Bio (useful for correcting spelling, or adding Dr., Mr., etc.)

Using characters not mentioned in the above list could cause the bio to not save or appear correctly.

Once you have created a Bio, click on Bio Image to update a photo or select a file from your Image Gallery.

If your Display Name is different from your Bio name, add the updated information to Display Name. Note, this is the information that will be visible to the public

Under Display Name, you'll see a Nicknames field — alternate names like stage names or shorthand you'd use to search for this person. This can be used to enrich search matching.

Although Nicknames are available on any account, for accounts with AI Discover enabled, adding nicknames can it help Discover match the right entity and makes the bio easier to find in search lists like the @ mention lookup.

Next, select Types to add Speaker (note: this list cannot be added to)

Next, click on Titles add a title to the bio (example: Lead Pastor, Project Manager, etc.)

You can add a short description but generally the Description field is what is utilized most often.

Click on the blue Done button to save your changes

After Description, you'll see Alternative Images — click Upload image to add more photos of this person or object. This is available on every account, giving you more photos on file for this bio.

For accounts with AI Discover enabled, these additional images also give AI Discover more reference points to match against, improving accuracy when identifying this entity in your content."

Next, add the Location to your Bio by entering the text in the field. You can also add your Company name by typing the information in the text field. By clicking Add Link, you can enter your Social Media information.

Add your Link Title by add the text in the field.
Click on the drop-down arrow to select your Link Type

To continue, add your Link Thumbnail and Link URL

If you have additional Social Media handles that you would like to add onto the bio, click Add Link again to continue

Anytime during the process of updating the bio, you can edit by clicking Delete, Undo Changes or Save

Once you have completed your Bio, select the Save Changes button to save your information and update the bio.
