After a Webinar has concluded, the integration will automatically update Workbooks with information about the session. A Scheduled Process called “GoToWebinar – Retrieve Webinar Data” is used to retrieve the data which includes:

• Who attended and their email address
• What questions each attendee asked
• Overall performance stats of the Webinar
• Online Activities to attribute a score to each Attendee / Absentee
• Maintain Webinar Recordings picklist values

Event Attendees Statuses

GoToWebinar provides a list of people that attended the Webinar after it has completed (where the Event End date/time has passed). For each Webinar Attendee, the integration searches for a corresponding Event Attendee that has a matching email address. If a record is found, their Status is updated to Attended and the amount of time they attended the session in seconds is also stored. Any remaining records where the Status is still set to Registered, will then be updated to Absent.

NOTE: For On Demand Webinars, Event Attendees are updated as they watch the webinar recording each time the sync runs and up until the End date/time. There may be a period where some Event Attendees are set to Registered and Attended. After the End date/time, the status will change to Absent if they Registered, but not watched the On Demand recording.

NOTE: Attendees that were added directly into the Webinar via the GoToWebinar UI and not invited by the Workbooks integration will not be updated in Workbooks. Event Speakers statuses will also not update automatically.

In addition to the above, a Workbooks Event can be configured to automatically send out Attended or Absent emails for each Event Attendee record to follow up after a Webinar. See here for further information.

Attendee Questions

GoToWebinar allows Attendees to ask questions during the session. The organiser/panelist can either answer the question during the Webinar or defer to after the session. Any question that is asked will be stored as an Activity in Workbooks as follows:

Workbooks Field	Value	Notes
Name	Set to “Webinar Question – X”	X is the Workbooks Event Name
Description	The question asked during a session
Primary Contact	The attendee who asked the question
Due Date	Set to TODAY’s date
Activity Type	Webinar Question
Assigned To	Set to the value configured during installation	See the activity_assigned_to parameter on the Scheduled Process called “GoToWebinar – Retrieve Webinar Data”
Question Answer	Set to the answer given during the session (if applicable)
Activity Status	New / Complete	If an answer is provided, the "Complete". Otherwise, "New" is used.
Completed Date	Set to TODAY’s date or blank	Only set if the status is "Complete". Otherwise Blank.

Workbooks users can be subscribed to Queues to notify them of when a new record is added to that Queue. This can be used to drive further workflow to follow up with the attendee after the session as part of your own business process.

Webinar Performance Stats

GoToWebinar captures some key metrics about a Webinar during the session. These metrics are stored against the Workbooks Event after the Webinar has completed. 

The statistics stored as part of the integration are as follows:
 

Workbooks Field	What does this field mean?
Registration Count	Stores the number of people registered to the webinar. Updated after the Webinar has completed. This number maybe different to the Attendees list on the event due to people registering from forwarded links that are not synced to Workbooks
Attendance Percentage	Stores the percentage of registrants who attended the Webinar. Updated after the Webinar has completed.
Avg. Interest Rating	Stores a numerical value 1-100 (100 being most interested) indicating the average interest rating of all attendees. Updated after the Webinar has completed.
Avg. Attentiveness	Stores the average based on the focus of the attendee’s viewer window during the Webinar. Updated after the Webinar has completed.
Avg. Attendance Time (Secs)	Stores the average attendance time in seconds for all attendees of the Webinar. Updated after the Webinar has completed.
Total Polls	Polls can be added to a Webinar directly in GoToWebinar. This stat shows the number of polls launched during a Webinar. Updated after the Webinar has completed.
Total Surveys	Surveys can be added to a Webinar directly in GoToWebinar. However, we’d recommend that Surveys are sent using GatorMail/GatorSurveys instead. This stat reflects any surveys started during the webinar and is updated after the webinar has finished.
Total Questions Asked	Stores the number of questions asked by attendees during a Webinar. Updated after the Webinar has completed. Questions are stored as Activities in Workbooks visible under the “Activities” tab of an Event record.
Polls Completed	Stores the percentage of polls completed by attendees. Updated after the Webinar has completed.
Surveys Completed	Surveys can be added to a Webinar directly in GoToWebinar. However, we’d recommend that Surveys are sent using GatorMail/GatorSurveys instead. This stat reflects any surveys completed in GoToWebinar only and is updated after the Webinar.
Attendee Score	Attribute a Score to a person that registered and attended a Webinar on an Online Activity which can be used to drive other internal processes. Online Activity created after the Webinar has completed.
Attendee Absent Score	Attribute a Score to a person that registered but did not attend a Webinar on an Online Activity which can be used to drive other internal processes.

Online Activities

Online Activities are created for each Event Attendee have the status of Registered.

These are the fields set on each Online Activity record:

The Score field value is configurable based on whether the person Attended or was Absent from your Webinar. You can assign a value to the following fields on the Event form:

• Attendee Score
• Attendee Absent Score

When an Online Activity record is created, the value is looked up from these fields to set the Score field value.

These records can be used to drive other business processes. For example, you can measure engagement via a scoring mechanism, and use it to drive the automatic creation of Opportunity records at a given threshold using the Workbooks Process Engine and a bespoke script to meet your business needs.

Webinar Recordings

When a session is run in GoToWebinar, it can be recorded. The recordings can then be used to drive future On Demand Webinars where registrants can sign up to access content. See here for more information on how to schedule this type of Webinar from an Event record. When this process runs, any recordings that are available in GoToWebinar are added to the picklist called "Webinar Recordings" automatically.

NOTE: The first time the Retrieve Webinar Data process runs, it will sync up to 1 year of recordings into Workbooks. After the initial sync, only new recordings are added. Existing recordings are not removed automatically if they are deleted from GoToWebinar.
