Quick Publish a Playlist
Quick Publish a Playlist
Publish an existing playlist to its current screens or assign it to additional screens and devices.
Overview
Playlist Quick Publish sends a prepared playlist to screens without recreating its slides or opening the complete publishing page.
Before you publish
- Confirm that the playlist contains the intended slides in the correct order and with the correct durations.
- Review any scheduling rules already applied to the playlist or its slides.
- Choose whether to update existing assigned screens or add the playlist to more screens.
What SignMitra creates or updates
- Keeps the original playlist and all of its slide order and playback settings.
- Uses existing screen assignments when the playlist is already published.
- Adds selected screen assignments when you choose more destinations.
- Refreshes affected online and offline-ready players safely.
Important: Quick Publish does not bypass playlist or slide scheduling. Scheduled content still follows its configured dates, days and times.
Step by Step Guide
Step 1: Open the playlist menu
Go to Playlists, open the three-dot context menu for the required playlist and choose Quick Publish.
Step 2: Review where it already plays
The modal shows screens currently using the playlist. If those are the only destinations, continue directly to Publish.
Step 3: Add more screens when needed
Enable the option to add more screens, then select each additional destination. If the playlist has no screen yet, screen selection opens automatically.
Step 4: Create a screen when allowed
If required, choose Add new screen and enter a name. This option is available only when your package has unused screen capacity.
Step 5: Publish the playlist
Click Publish. SignMitra verifies playlist-to-screen mappings, updates player data and shows the success animation.
Step 6: Handle screens without devices
When a destination screen has no device, select an available device in the next step. Existing connected screens do not show this step.
Step 7: Verify scheduling and playback
Open the screen preview or player after publishing. If scheduled slides do not appear immediately, confirm their date, day, time and timezone settings.
