Creating “Sponsored By” Sessions in Swoogo
Learn how to set up and display “Sponsored By” information for sessions in Swoogo and connect it to Amego using a custom field and API mapping.
To display sponsor information for specific sessions in your event app, you’ll need to set up a custom “Sponsored By” field in Swoogo and have it mapped to Amego via API. Here’s how to do it:
Step 1: Set Up the Custom Field in Swoogo
- Navigate to Sessions in your Swoogo dashboard.
- Create a custom field at the session level named Sponsored By.
- Choose Select as the field type.
- Populate the select field with the names of sponsors who are sponsoring sessions.
🔶 Important: The sponsor names must exactly match the names in the sponsor list to ensure proper display in the app. - For each applicable session, select the corresponding sponsor from the “Sponsored By” dropdown.
Step 2: Share the Custom Field ID with Amego
After the custom field is created and sponsors are assigned to sessions:
- Locate the custom field ID for “Sponsored By.”
- Identify the Source Field ID in your EMS: Locate the Source Field ID from your EMS. This is the unique identifier for the custom field you want to import into Amego. Fields are pulled from Swoogo Global > Customize Fields > Contact/ Registrant (or Sessions) > Fields and then you have to hover over the edit button to see the URL at the bottom and pull the numbers from ID

- Share that ID with the Amego team so it can be mapped to display in the app via API.
Step 3: Amego Maps Sponsor Name via API
Once Amego receives the custom field ID, the team will:
- Map the “Sponsored By” field in the API.
- Ensure sponsor names appear alongside their associated sessions in the app.
