Clickers: Allow Guests to Respond to PointSolutions Polling Questions

Overview

The current default for PointSolutions is set to Require Participant Accounts. This means only those within our UTK organization can respond to polling questions after they have logged into PointSolutions and completed the two-factor authentication process.

When using PointSolutions at a conference or other event where your participants are NOT part of the UTK organization, you will need to turn this feature off. Instructions below are provided for the PointSolutions desktop and PointSolutions Web app environments.
