Web pages
Use web pages as content in playlists.
Web pages let you create dynamic content using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Web pages are displayed on screens with the scrollbar and browser interface hidden.
Use examples
Use web pages on screens for many different tasks.
For example, make your screens display:
- Dynamic content: news, weather forecast, exchange rates, your company’s figures
- Electronic queue and the order readiness status
- Menu with price editing available
- Interactive scenarios for touchscreens
- Event calendar
List of an organization’s web pages
To view the web pages added to an organization, open the organization dashboard and click “Web Pages” in the left menu.
Editing web pages
The changes you make to web pages are automatically displayed on all screens.
You do not need to manually update or replace playlists.
To edit a web page, follow these steps:
- Go to the web page list
- Find the web page you want to edit
- Click the three dots
... - Select “Edit”
Web page name
The web page name is a free-form field. Specify any name convenient to you.
When adding web pages to playlists, you can search for them by name.
Web page URL
The web page URL must begin with http:// or https://.
This URL will open on your screens.
URL parameters
When URL parameter passing is enabled for web pages, screens will dynamically append URL parameters based on configuration settings.
For example, if you add a web page example.ru/menu and enable location parameter passing, the screen will open the URL formatted as:
example.ru/menu?locationId=c1e9638d-d989-43e3-b76d-57cf5070c814
where locationId represents the location ID in the service.
URL parameter passing
By default, when you add a new web page, URL parameter passing is initially disabled.
To enable passing the URL parameters of a screen or location, click “Edit” for the web page and select the parameter you need.
Available passing options:
- Pass all parameters (both location and screen)
- Pass screen parameters only
- Pass location parameters only
- Disable parameter passing
Duplicate parameters
When there are duplicate parameters in the web page URL or screen/location URL parameters, they resolve using this priority hierarchy:
Web page < Location < Screen (screen parameters have highest priority)
This means that if the web page parameter is store=1 and the location parameter is store=2, the resulting URL will be:
example.ru/?store=2
If the screen also has the store parameter with, for example, the 3 value, the resulting URL will be:
example.ru/?store=3
