How do I integrate with CDS registration to set up authentication (app login)?

You can easily integrate the EventPilot platform with your CDS registration system. Once integrated, your attendees  log into the platform by entering their badge ID in the username field and their last name (same spelling as they registered with and would be printed on the badge) as the password. 


In order to set up the integration with CDS, follow these steps: 

  1. Register a test attendee for your event and have the registration number and last name ready for login testing
  2. Know your API key for your event
  3. Confirm that CDS has turned on the API for your event


The following is a sample email to send to your CDS account manager:


I am using the EventPilot platform for my event and would like to set up authentication integration using the badge ID and last name combination as the login.

  1. Could you please provide me with the API key for my event? 
  2. Please confirm that the API has been turned on.
