Question

Can I export live data?


Hello

Is it or will it be possible to extract an RSS feed of the questions
or chat ?

If we want to import data “live” now we have to export it every time
we want our Google Spreadsheet to update. It would be nice if new data
is automatically published in a file.

This way we can refer to that file in our live broadcast and put the
questions in the show.

 

Thank you.

Hey @Eventronics,

At the moment, it’s not possible to export live data, however other live broadcasts have used Present mode to show questions in Slido.

Simply open Present mode and then you can switch between this and your other sources.

Hope this helps :)

Yes, that is how we do it now as well.

But I would like to use it in a title instead of using the presenter view.

Vmix has the capabiility to extract from Facebook and Twitter,

maybe something like this can also be created for Slido.

(I will ask the same question to Vmix)

Any updates on this @Cori from slido ? For reference, these are the types of data source formats that would work with vMix:

Hi @Eventronics

There are no current plans to export live data in the way in which you are asking. However, I’m happy to share this feedback again to give some visibility! 😊

Best,

+1 for this.

I would like to pull moderated questions into VMix as an overlay.


has there been any progress in the last year?

Hey @MyEvents ,

There is no update, and we do not have this on our current roadmap.

This will also be submitted as a feature request so it is logged for the teams consideration when planning for what to work on next.

Lot of enterprises use Slido in combination with streaming software (like Vmix or OBS).

One workaround to get live questions in our live show is to use the presenter view, but we don’t have any possibility to modify how it’s presented onscreen.

The best option should be to have a json source for live questions.

Hope this feature will be on roadmap soon !

Hey @plizon ,

Thanks for this workaround! Your comment will be added as a feedback for future feature updates.

Let us know if you have any other questions/suggestions!

Best,

Professional Slido account that would also want this. Would love for people to be able to react in emojis that would show up in the vMix stream or a different way to embed chats or Q&A questions directly in vMIX.
