At spf.io, we’re always looking for ways to make our platform more efficient for you. We understand that for many organizations, especially those with recurring events and multiple team members, the process of setting up a new session can be repetitive. You have to select the same languages, configure caption settings, and adjust audio options every single time. And you want to be consistent.
To solve this challenge, we’re introducing Default Session Settings. This new feature allows you to create a standard settings template that will be automatically applied every time a new session is created within your account.
How to Use Default Session Settings
Follow these simple steps to configure your session template.
1. Navigate to Default Session Settings
Log in to your spf.io account, navigate to Sessions menu then click gear icon (⚙️) next to Create Session button.
2. Configure Your Default Languages
The first step is to select the languages you most frequently use on the Active Channels. Here, you can add the languages that will be auto-populated whenever you create a new session.
Next, click on the Options tab to configure the finer details of your session, just as you would when creating an individual session.
- Caption and Translation Settings: Enable or disable features like “Store history”, “Profanity filter”, and “Keyword booster” to match your organization’s standard requirements.
- Audience Interaction: Decide if “Translation on Demand” should be on by default for each session.
- Audience Audio Settings: For each language you’ve selected, set its default audio mode: No Audio, Streaming, or Text-to-speech (with your preferred Male/Female voice).
3. Save and You’re Done!
Once all the settings match your preferences, click “Save as default”. Your default session template is now active
How It Works in Practice
The next time you or anyone on your team clicks the “Create Session” button, you will see that all the language selections and advanced options you just saved are already filled in automatically.
Of course, you still have full flexibility. If a specific event requires a different setup—perhaps you need two extra languages or want to disable Text-to-speech—you can easily override the defaults for that particular session without affecting your template.
The “Default Session Settings” feature is designed to empower your team, reduce administrative overhead, and ensure every event runs smoothly and consistently.
