Actions

Actions are executed when the trigger and filters apply. A routine has at least one action; several actions start at the same time; if one of them has On error set to Abort, they run one after the other in the configured order.

Switch content

Jumps to a piece of content in their playlist on one or more players.

Target – for player triggers (content started/finished, touch) you choose:

• Triggering device – the jump happens exactly on the device on which the content ran or someone tapped. You choose the Playlist and the Content within it.
• Specific device – you choose one or more Devices. For each device you set its own jump target, from the playlist it is currently playing. All selected devices receive the command at the same time – this is how you switch several screens together, see Synchronize screens.

For Schedule and Webhook there is no triggering device – there you always choose specific devices.

Note

A jump target must be an entry of the playlist the device is currently playing. A device without a playlist has nowhere to jump to. If a device is missing its target, the editor shows Without a target this player will not jump.

External webhook

Calls an address, e.g. to notify another system. You set the Webhook URL and the Method.

On error

For each action, under On error you determine what happens if it fails:

• Continue – the next actions run anyway.
• Abort – the routine stops here; the following actions are skipped.

You can see whether an action succeeded in the Log.
