Step by step

Log in to your Riverside account on a web browser or the MacOS app.
Send audience members invite links so they can join the studio.
Enable audience registration to require audience members to input their name and email before entering the studio so you retrieve a list of all of the people who came to the session (optional).
Before the recording, turn on the public audience link so audience members can enter the studio to watch the live stream.
For scheduled sessions, you don’t need to manually toggle the link - it activates automatically when the session goes live.
Wait for the first audience member to arrive in the studio.
You can only go live if there is one or more audience members present.
Click Go live to start the live stream.
