→ How do I set up the Go Live feature inside a Kajabi course?
You can use Kajabi’s Go Live feature to host live video sessions directly inside a course lesson. This allows students to watch live, interact in real time, and access the replay later from the same lesson.
This tutorial explains where Go Live lives in Kajabi, how to enable it inside a course, and what students experience.
What the Go Live feature does in Kajabi
Kajabi Go Live allows you to:
-
Host live video inside a course lesson
-
Stream to enrolled students only
-
Automatically save the replay to the lesson
-
Keep live and on-demand content in one place
Go Live is designed for private, course-based live sessions, not public broadcasts.
Where Go Live lives in Kajabi

You access it through the lesson editor.

What students see during a Go Live session

The live video appears directly in the lesson
Students do not need a separate link or login.
What happens after the live session ends
After the session:

Only students who have access to the course can:
-
View the live stream
-
Watch the replay
If a student loses course access:
-
They lose access to the Go Live replay as well
Access follows the course permissions.
When Go Live is useful inside a course
Go Live works well for:
-
Live teaching sessions
-
Weekly check-ins
-
Q&A calls
-
Group coaching inside a course
-
Cohort-based programs
It keeps live interaction inside the learning environment instead of external tools.
