  3. That's it! Now any users that register and attends your Sequel powered events and webinars will appear under Members> Activity Log in the associated program that you associated with the event.

Note: To track your event and ensure that the event data is accurately matched with the correct program in Marketo, please set up the name of your program for the selected event.

Program Status

Sequel.io offers 4 statuses for each person who registers for your event.

  • Registered - every user who registered for your event

  • Attended - users who attended live

  • No Show - users who registered but did not attend

  • On Demand - users who viewed your On Demand Replay

You can map each of Sequel.io's statuses to Marketo, using any unique names you'd like in the CRM tab of the event. Just enter the Marketo status you would like to map, keeping in mind it is case sensitive.

  1. Select the Registration tab within your event

  2. Enable Sequel.io registration

  3. Add custom questions to the registration form

  4. Navigate to the CRM tab within your event
