How to Add an Interpreter?

When you enter the webinar room, click the cog icon in the Audio and Video window and select 'Language Interpretation'

Activate the language interpretation feature as shown in the screenshot below. Toggle the Language Interpretation option on and click 'Assign new'.

A window will appear asking you to select the attendee who will interpret the event. Their job will be to simultaneously listen to and interpret what other attendees are saying into the target language.

In the first field (1), write the name and surname of the attendee who will be translating, and in the second field (2) select the language they will be translating to. After clicking 'Assign Interpreter', a window will open allowing you to manage attendee-interpreters. You will also see that your invitation was sent to the attendee you selected for the interpreter role, marked with a 'Pending' status.

In this window, you will see four different options: a. Add New Interpreter – add a new attendee-interpreter, b. Edit Interpreter – edit the profile of an interpreter, c. Resend Invitation – send the interpreter invitation again, d. Remove Interpreter – delete an interpreter from the list. The attendee-interpreter will receive a request asking them to interpret throughout the event. Below, you will find an example of what the invitation looks like:

Once the attendee clicks 'Accept', they will be assigned the role of interpreter. In the Language Interpretation window discussed earlier, their status will change from 'Pending' to 'Accepted'. When an attendee accepts the interpreter role, they must click on the microphone icon again to activate their audio. Otherwise, the other attendees will not be able to hear them."
