3. Select New Broadcast.

4. Complete the Details tab first, then review Presenters, Registration, and Settings.

5. Select Create Broadcast when the broadcast is ready to save.

Details tab

• Title: The main name of the broadcast shown inside HeyStream and on public pages.

• Description: Optional rich text that explains what the broadcast is about.

• Scheduled date: The date and time for a scheduled broadcast. Leave it blank if you are creating a broadcast you plan to start now.

• Estimated duration: Used to check the broadcast against your plan duration limit.

• Broadcast preview: The thumbnail or generated preview viewers see before the broadcast starts.

• Series: Optional. Link the broadcast to a series so subscribers can be enrolled automatically.

Presenters tab

Use Presenters to set your own role and add anyone else who should join the studio. Additional presenters receive invite links for the broadcast.

Registration tab

Use Registration to decide whether public registration is open, whether replay registration stays open after the live session, whether hosts receive question notifications, and whether the registration form should ask custom questions.

Settings tab

Use Settings for broadcast-level viewer features such as stream reactions.

Before sharing the broadcast

Check the title, date, timezone, registration settings, presenters, and preview image before sharing the registration link.
