What data do I need to provide to my Implementation Specialist?
To add apps to existing Multi Show Apps, we require session, sponsors/exhibitor, and speaker data to be provided in an Excel spreadsheet or electronically from your provider. Preliminary data is acceptable. You will be able to update data throughout the app build process, if using API feeds this article provides more information on the API data sync schedule. At minimum, you must have two of the three below data sets along with a map image for app submission.
For each data set, consider these questions:
- Will you send your data to us via spreadsheet or is your data housed in an API feed coming from another system (i.e. registration provider)?
- If API integration, will this data come from the same provider again this year or is it a new provider?
- If same as before, should the formatting/display of this data match exactly what we achieved in last year’s app?
