Event libraries

In Oniva, events can be organised into clear, structured libraries, allowing your guests to discover and browse events by specific categories.

Platform event library

Oniva’s platform event library is a cross-workspace portal that provides all users with an account—such as members or employees—access to all events within the organisation. Participants can browse events by various categories to find offerings that suit them.

The platform event library in Oniva.

The library brings together events from different workspaces, enabling employees to centrally discover and take part in training sessions, information events, sports and wellness activities, and other organisational initiatives.

 

Workspace event library

In addition to the overarching platform event library, dedicated event libraries can also be created for individual workspaces. Workspace libraries contain only the events of that particular workspace and can serve as a standalone portal for a specific audience, for example, recruitment events.

Workspace libraries can also be made publicly accessible, allowing people without an account to view the events.

Subpages for Workspace Event Libraries

Within a workspace, subpages can be created for the workspace event library. These subpages are linked in the library’s navigation bar and can be used to provide additional information, such as:

  • Directions
  • Event notes
  • Rules or guidelines

 

Activating event libraries

To display a workspace’s events in the platform event library or the workspace event library, the relevant settings must be configured in the tenant's workspace settings:

  • Display the workspace on the login screen: Generates a preview tile of the workspace on the login page for the platform event library.
  • Display in the global event library: Displays the workspace’s events in the platform event library.
  • Allow hosting events for users with accounts: Allows users with an account but without admin rights to propose events for this workspace. The events must then be approved by a workspace admin or a higher-level admin (see Events by the community).
  • Standard account types for creating new authorisation groups: When activated, new workspace events are created with authorisation groups restricted to accounts by default. These events are not publicly accessible. If the events should be accessible without an account, no account type needs to be selected.
  • Enable standalone event library: Activates the workspace event library for this workspace. The workspace event library can also be enabled in addition to display in the overarching event library.
