# InterviewMR - Getting started

InterviewMR is our latest integrated video interview tool that allows you to gather groups of users and ask them your research questions. Each interview is recorded directly into the InsightHub and can be edited and replayed in our analysis tool VideoMR.

**Getting started**

To locate InterviewMR, simply head to the ‘Back Room’ and from the left-hand menu select ‘Research Tools’, then select ‘InterviewMR’. You’ll then be able to view live and closed projects.

**Adding a new video project**

The first step to setting up an InterviewMR session is to add a new video project. This is a simple step – just select ‘Add Video Project’ from the top right-hand corner of the page. Once you’ve added a name for your project, just click save and you’ll be taken to the ‘Sessions’ tab for your video project, where you can start to add your InterviewMR sessions.

A Video Project is a way of keeping together sessions organised for the same piece of research. You can share stimuli across projects and invite users to sessions within a project using the Scheduler tool. Each Video Project can contain any number of sessions.

**Adding a new InterviewMR session**

You can add multiple sessions to one video project so that any related InterviewMR sessions are stored together for easy access. To add a new InterviewMR session, simply click ‘Add Session’ on the top-right of the page. You will then be asked to add a title, start time and end time for that session.

*The start and end time will be pulled through to your invite so will need to reflect the exact time for your session.*

***Setting User Field data to show during InterviewMR sessions***

Existing User Field data can be set to show during InterviewMR sessions, when you click on a participant's name as an admin or client-type user.

To show User Field data in the pop-up box for each participant:

1\. Go to Database \> Add and edit user fields

2\. Select the User Field you'd like to show, and click 'Show on fg tooltips'
