What Is a Seminar ID?

A Seminar ID is a unique identifier automatically generated for each seminar within the Content Management System (CMS). It allows the system to accurately recognise and reference a specific seminar, even when multiple seminars share similar or identical titles.

You can think of the Seminar ID as the seminar’s internal reference number. While users typically see details such as the seminar title, date, and description, the CMS and any connected systems rely on the Seminar ID to identify the correct seminar behind the scenes.

🔗 What Is a Seminar ID Used For?

Seminar IDs are primarily used when integrating the CMS with third-party platforms or data feeds, such as event apps, registration systems, or agenda displays. Common use cases include:

• Pulling seminar data into external systems (for example, LiveBuzz or event apps)

• Accurately syncing speaker, agenda, or session information

• Automatically updating seminar details without manual intervention

• Ensuring the correct seminar is referenced when multiple sessions have similar names

When configuring a seminar feed or integration, the Seminar ID tells the external system exactly which seminar’s data to retrieve.

⭐ Why Is the Seminar ID Important?

Relying on seminar titles alone can lead to errors. Titles may be edited, duplicated, or formatted differently over time, but the Seminar ID never changes.

Because it remains constant, the Seminar ID is the most reliable way for systems to communicate with each other and ensure data accuracy across platforms.

🔍 How to Find the Seminar ID in the CMS

Locating a Seminar ID is quick and simple:

1. Log in to the CMS

2. Navigate to the Seminar module

3. Open or locate the seminar you need

4. The Seminar ID is displayed directly beneath the seminar title

Example:
ID: 296724
