This article describes the components of the Channel page and the deliverables required for display and configuration.
A channel page is a collection of content. Users can add information, descriptions, playlists, and much more to the channel. Create the channel page with welcome videos, different playlists, and customized CTA buttons that allow the user to navigate effortlessly to different pages internally or externally. Attendees can also reach out to moderators on channel pages creating space to engage and connect.
