# How to assign users to an event

{% embed url="<https://getmobly.wistia.com/s/c6vexcj2gz47k4c>" %}

\* This article is only relevant to Mobly Admins (with access to the Hub) \*

Assigning a user to an event gives them access to capture and scan leads for it from the Mobly mobile app. A user has to be in your org before you can assign them to an event — if they're not, add them under [How to add users](/help-center/account-and-team/how-to-add-users.md) first.

## Steps

1. In the Hub, go to the **Events** tab and click into the event.
2. Click the **edit icon** in the top right corner — a side drawer opens.
3. In the **Users** box, either type the user's name or pick them from the list. Repeat for as many users as you need to add.
4. Click **Save** before clicking out of the drawer.

The assigned users now see the event in their Mobly mobile app and can capture leads into it.

## Common gotchas

* **The user has to be in your org first.** Users you haven't added to the org won't appear in the Users picker. Add them under [How to add users](/help-center/account-and-team/how-to-add-users.md), then come back here.
* **Click Save.** Closing the drawer without saving discards your selections — there's no auto-save on this drawer today.
* **Users you assign here also show up in the event's Users tab** on the event detail page, where you can review who's assigned, add more, or remove people.

## Removing a user from an event

If you need to undo an assignment — wrong rep, role change, no longer attending — see [How to remove a user from an event](/help-center/the-hub/managing-events/how-to-remove-a-user-from-an-event.md). Removing a user from one event doesn't disable them or affect their access to other events.
