    3. Choose a broadcast method. You can choose either or both of the two options - ‘Email’ and 'Push notification'.

    4. Under the “When would you like to send this communication?” field, select either of the following options:

      1. Send now: To send the email immediately.

      2. Schedule for later: To schedule the email for a later date. You can choose a suitable date and time using a date picker. Depending on the event, your email would be categorized into pre-event, live event, or post-event.

    2. Live event: If the email is scheduled during the event
    3. Post-event: If the email is scheduled after the event date
      The ‘All’ tab shows the list of all Pre-event, Live-event, and Post-event.
