Inviting Participants
Every Rallista event is controlled access. This means to see the event's route segments, a Rallista user must be invited to the event. To add a person to the invite list, you can add them directly by their username, or approve their request for access.
- Open the event view.
- Tap the Add User icon.
- Type the username of the person you'd like to add.
- Tap Add.
OR
- Find the request for access you'd like to approve.
- Swipe the request to the right and select Approve.
Note - The participant will not see the route segments until 1 hour before the event starts.
Sharing your Event
There are multiple ways to get participants into your event. The easiest is to share the event using it's share link before the event starts. After getting the link, your participants can request access to the event. To share the event:
- Open the event.
- Tap the Share Link icon.
- Paste the link in an email, text message, etc and send it to your participants.
Customized & Large Events
The Rallista sales team can accommodate an event of any scale with a selection of customizations. To calculate the event cost we'll need the following information as well as the current event's share link. Don't worry about adding all segments and content to the current event. We'll use the link to increase the limits once the cost estimate is approved.
