Step-by-Step Onboarding Guide
Follow the steps below and start displaying content today.
Step 1
Create Your Account
Begin by signing up for a free trial or logging in to your dashboard. You don’t need a credit card to get started. Once inside, you will have instant access to your cloud-based control center, where you can invite team members to collaborate and begin organizing your network.
Step 2
Add Your Displays & Choose Your Strategy
Create a digital slot for your screen in the dashboard to act as its management hub. You can choose to manage each screen as a Standalone Display for unique, individual control, or group them into Channels to push the same content and schedules to multiple screens simultaneously.
Step 3
Upload Media and Create Playlists
Now, bring your screens to life. Use the media library to upload images or videos. From there, group your assets into playlists using our drag-and-drop interface. You can set specific durations for each item and add timeline scheduling to ensure the right content plays at the right time.
Step 4
Add Dynamic Widgets
Enhance your content with live data that updates on its own. Choose from 19 widget types, including weather, news and RSS feeds, Google and Outlook calendars, Power BI and live web pages. These widgets require zero coding and can be mixed into your playlists or run as standalone layouts to keep your screens fresh and engaging. Need a designed poster or menu board? Open the Canvas editor and start from one of 100+ templates.
Step 5
Schedule and Publish
Define your display rules by setting start times, expiration dates, and recurring schedules. Use the real-time preview tool to see exactly how your layout will look. When you are happy with the setup, hit publish to push your content to the cloud, ready to be picked up by your screen.
Step 6
Connect Your Screen
The final step is to go live. Open the Signital app on your smart TV or media player—or simply open a web browser on any internet-connected screen—to generate a unique pairing code. Enter that code into the Display you created in Step 2 to link your screen to your account. Your content will begin playing instantly.
