4-Step Setup Wizard Details​

Step 1 — Basic Settings​

In this step you enter basic metadata for the event, such as its name (Title), Event ID, and Description. The Event ID is a unique value used to identify the event, separate from its name and description. If a failure occurs during broadcast or you need to monitor the event, this ID is used to look up the event's information. If you leave this field blank, an ID in UUID format is assigned automatically.
