Widgets

Please refer to Digital Signage

Digital Signage widgets allow you to add dynamic content to playlists that have up-to-date information whenever the signage is played. These widgets can be deployed to specific groups of displays to make sure that the right people are seeing the right information.

Widgets may be added to playlists for use in Digital Signage displays. All widgets support both landscape and portrait displays.

To add a widget:

Edit a playlist in Vivi Central
Choose Widgets on the top right tabs
Select a widget
Configure the widget following the required fields in the settings.

Available Widgets

Calendar	Both Google and Outlook calendar views are supported with our Calendar widget. There are three views which users can select from, namely, Daily view, Weekly view and Monthly view.
Clock	Displays a clock, with configurable appearance (analogue or digital).
News	When configuring news, you may choose what news categories you wish to display. This widget's news is sourced from Bing using the strictest SafeSearch settings, not Vivi, and may not reflect our company's views. For more, see the Bing News API.
Timer	Displays a timer for the configured duration of the widget.
Weather	Vivi’s weather updates are powered by OpenWeather, using a configured location, units, and forecast type (daily, weekly).

When modifying a playlist, a user is able to add multiple instances of the same widget with different configurations.
