Concepts

Types of access

For  participants

icastGo lets you define different levels of access restriction to a webcast.

• Full access: No access control is carried out; a person with the participant link will be able to see the content.
• Confidential: An identity check is performed and several options are available
  
  • A list of participants is created in advance and only its members are allowed.
  • One or more domains are identified in advance and only email addresses belonging to these domains are allowed.

If a webcast is defined as confidential, participants must connect to it.

To do this they use the webcast connection form. This will be displayed if the webcast is marked as confidential.

👉🏻IMPORTANT: The access path to the webcast is as follows:

Access link > Identity verification > Registration > Webcast
This means that if security is disabled, registration will still be required in order to access the webcast.

For the organizers

Unlike the participants, the organizers use the login page for the platform.

Once connected to the icastGo platform, an organizer has access to all content belonging
to his organization.
He can access a webcast, regardless of the participant access restriction defined, by clicking on the icon. 

For the speakers

Like the organizers, the speakers use the platform login page.

Once connected to the icastGo platform, a speaker has access to all content that has been assigned to him or her, or content for which he or she has been identified as a speaker by an organizer. 

 

URL Links

Participant links are different from access links for speakers and organizers.

Connect to the platform:  https://app.icastgo.com/
Participant access:  https://app.icastgo.com/event/[Webcast-Key]

The "Webcast Key" is automatically generated by the platform when the webcast is created
and is not predictable.

Trusted third parties

icastGo offers three methods for validating the identity of its users.

	Operation	Participants	Organisers and speakers

Identity Provider (SAML ou OIDC)	Please contact us Documentation SSO	X	X
