Overview

Digital Signage gives each physical screen its own public URL and its own settings, so you can run a wall of signage players from third-party platforms without sharing a single login or a single share link across every screen. It’s a companion to the TV Dashboard: the TV Dashboard is one authenticated or share-link view for viewing status yourself, while Digital Signage mints an independent, revocable URL per screen for signage software to load.

​
Accessing Digital Signage

Navigate to Monitoring → Digital Signage in the sidebar. This is a separate resource from the TV Dashboard settings page, and it’s only visible to users who can manage the organization.

​
Creating a Display

Click New signage display and configure: Screen
  • Name — a label to tell this screen apart from others (e.g., “Reception lobby TV”)
  • Signage platform — the vendor driving the screen
  • Enabled — disabling a display stops its URL from working immediately, without deleting it
What the screen shows
  • Stacks — which Stacks to display; leave empty to show every Stack in the organization
  • Display size — Normal, Large, or Extra large (pick by viewing distance, not screen size)
  • Show stack headers, Show incident ticker, 24-hour clock
Timing
  • Data refresh — how often the board polls for new data (10–60 seconds)
  • Page rotation — how long each page displays before rotating, used when there are more Stacks than fit on one screen
  • Full page reload — a periodic hard reload that clears anything a long-running player accumulates; leave this on for signage players
Access
  • Allowed IP addresses — an optional allowlist of IP addresses or CIDR ranges (e.g., 203.0.113.0/24). Leave empty to allow any address. Use your office egress address, not the screen’s LAN address.
Creating a display mints a public URL that serves your organization’s status data to anyone who holds it, so this page is gated the same way as the TV Dashboard’s public share link.

​
Supported Platforms

Each display targets one signage platform: Every platform loads the display’s URL as a plain web page in a web view, so setup is mostly the same everywhere: create a website/web-page app or media item in your platform, and paste in the display’s URL. Click Setup on a display’s row for platform-specific steps.

​
Managing Displays

From the Digital Signage list, each display’s row supports: The list also shows each display’s platform, how many Stacks it’s showing, when it was last seen, and how many times its URL has loaded.

​
URLs

Each display gets its own token-based URL:
A JSON feed is also available at the same path for platforms or custom templates that consume data directly rather than rendering a web page:
Anyone with a display’s URL can view your Stack status. Regenerate the URL if it’s compromised, and use the IP allowlist for screens on a known network.
