Livestream Multi Pin

Encourage engagement and drive purchases by pinning products during your showroom event. Pinned products remain visible to your viewers, helping them discover and shop featured items easily. You can also pin interactions- like giveaways, links, polls or question cards alongside your products to boost participation and interest.

One common use case is to keep a giveaway pinned throughout the event while pinning and unpinning various products as you showcase them.

Schedule Archive
This allows for the ability to "archive" a showroom, which means it will no longer appear in embeds. Typically, this feature will be used for seasonal or branded campaigns where showrooms will have a designated end date. Once archived, the showroom will be placed into a new folder for archived videos on the CMS.
