Live Q&A must be enabled individually for each session where you want to use it. This two-step setup — at the session level and at the event level — gives you precise control over which sessions collect questions.
Repeat this for every session where you want to collect questions.

After enabling a session, navigate to Engagement → Session Engagement → Live Q&A. Open the session dropdown at the top of the screen. Only sessions where "Allow Live Q&A" is turned on will appear here. If a session is missing from the dropdown, check that the toggle is enabled in its Advanced Settings.

Q: I enabled Allow Live Q&A for a session but it doesn't appear in the dropdown. What's wrong?
A: Save the session after toggling the setting, then refresh the Live Q&A screen. If the session still doesn't appear, confirm the toggle was saved correctly in Advanced Settings.
Q: Can I enable Live Q&A for all sessions at once?
A: No — the Allow Live Q&A setting is per session and must be enabled individually for each one.
Q: What happens to questions submitted to a session if I later turn off Allow Live Q&A?
A: Existing questions are not deleted. They remain in your admin panel. The session will simply stop appearing in the dropdown for new moderation.
Q: Do I need to do anything else after enabling Allow Live Q&A per session?
A: Yes — if you want questions to publish automatically without manual moderation, you also need to enable the Auto-Publish toggle at the event level. See the Auto-Publish article for details.
