Embed to the sidebar:

1. Navigate to the Admin Panel - Schedule on the Admin panel. 
2. Select the session to add the sidebar integrations
3. Click on 'Edit' for that session.
4. Navigate to the top right corner for the 'Edit Side Panel (Integrations)'.
5. Add a new sidebar integration with 'New' and add the title for the integrations and the embed URL. 
6. All changes will be saved automatically and reflected in your event immediately. 

It will look like this in the schedule for your attendees.
