Add a New Bio

Bios allow you to display short profile information for speakers, hosts, artists, or team members within your event or channel. They’re designed to give viewers quick context about the people featured in your content. Each bio can include details like a name, title, description, and profile image. Bios can be linked to videos, sessions, events, or collections to help personalize the viewing experience and provide professional or background information at a glance.

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

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

Helpful Tip: 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.
