Playlists¶

A playlist shows dashboards and goal lists one after another. Page through them yourself, like slides in a meeting, or let them rotate on a timer on a screen on the wall.

Find them under Dashboards → Playlists.

Making one¶

1. Choose New playlist and give it a name.
2. Under Playing, set the show's defaults: the seconds on each slide, whether it loops and whether it plays when opened.
3. Under Slides, in order, pick a dashboard or goal list and choose Add. Repeat for each one. Use ↑ and ↓ to reorder, and ✕ to remove.
4. Each slide shows for the default seconds and says Default. Click that to give one slide its own time (− and + adjust it); ↺ puts it back on the default. You can also pin a slide to a period (say, last 7 days) for this playlist only.

Clicking a column heading sorts the slides by that column. The rows are the order the slides play in, so sorting changes the play order. Undo puts the previous order back, and nothing changes until you save. Columns can be dragged wider or narrower.

A personal playlist can hold your own dashboards and goal lists, and shared ones. A shared playlist can hold only shared ones. Anyone watching sees only the slides they're allowed to open; the others are skipped.

Playing it¶

The bar at the top has previous, play/pause and next, the name of the dashboard on screen, and one step per dashboard. The current step fills as its time runs out, and you can click any step to jump to it.

The player pauses by itself when you switch to another tab, and carries on when you come back. Clicking into a card, to read its rows, pauses it too.

Links that control it¶

The address follows along as it plays, so a copied link opens on the same dashboard. You can also add these to a playlist's address:

Combine them with &: Wall screen on a playlist's page opens ?kiosk=1&play=1, which is the link to put on a TV.

Renaming and deleting dashboards¶

A playlist keeps up with its dashboards. If one is renamed, the playlist follows it. If one is deleted, it leaves the playlist.
