Monitor your players with the Player Monitoring App

Introduction

The Player Monitoring app allows you to get a quick overview of your Q-Play players in near-realtime, directly inside a Q-Play presentation. That way, you can deploy a screen in your internal IT department which monitors all the other players running throughout your business.




How to set it up

  5. Hit "Save" 
  6. You will now have the option to add a new script. Click the button here.


You can now give the script a name and apply group filters. Hit "Save" when you're done creating the script.

See Understanding Integration Schedule Types if you need information about on-demand vs. scheduled runs.
