Elevating the Webinar Experience: The Power of RingCentral API

In today’s ever-changing technology, companies constantly demand top-notch solutions that can cover large-scale issues. RingCentral Webinar APIs allow customers, and developers to integrate webinars programmatically with your existing marketing, sales, and business tech stack.

RingCentral Webinar APIs allow you to seamlessly integrate RingCentral Webinar functionality with your software or application, giving you total control over your webinar experience. It also allows developers to create, schedule, and manage webinars, as well as perform a range of other functions, such as registering people for an upcoming webinar, accessing webinar recordings, and accessing the list of attendees for an active or past webinar.

When utilizing RingCentral Webinar, you can customize your webinar pages’ look and feel, create polls and surveys, list Q&As, and display panelist chats. What’s more, RingCentral Webinar can host up to 10,000 attendees with the ability to join using their web browser — making it easy to host wider-range events.

What can you do with the RingCentral Webinar API?

RingCentral Webinar APIs allow you to quickly and programmatically create new webinars with customizable settings including date and time, the number of attendees, and the duration of the webinar.

To create a new webinar using our JavaScript SDK, it’s as simple as:

platform.post('/webinar/configuration/v1/webinars', {
  title: "My first webinar",
  description: "This is a sample webinar" 
});

Once your webinar has been created, you can quickly invite attendees in batches, as well as manage webinar registrations. Our historical Webinar APIs provide registration lists and webinar recordings for archiving or direct publishing purposes. There are also numerous Webinar Webhooks to allow you to be instantly notified when specific events (such as a registration) take place.

On top of the API capabilities, RingCentral Webinar was built with simplicity, flexibility, accessibility, and customizability in mind. With RingCentral Webinar, you also have the ability to:

• Add branding to registration forms and emails
• Add custom questions on registration forms,
• Generate automated emails,
• Trigger marketing automation integrations (only with Marketo at launch)
• Grant attendees access to uploaded videos and documents and
• Grant hosts access to view attendee engagement and marketing tools from the RingCentral Webinar host panel

RingCentral Webinar also allows you to create polls and surveys for your webinars. This feature is particularly useful for gathering feedback from your attendees, which, over time, can help you improve your webinar content and delivery. Also with these custom polls and surveys, you can track the responses in real time.
