Once the TV dashboard(s) have been created by following the steps outlined in this article, content can be added to display a tailored summary screen.
Content Selection
There are two options for displaying content on the summary screen:
- Autofeed - Allows you to display the latest updates, articles and events for a global audience or from one or more spaces/ teams. This is the perfect option for highly localized content or for showing content from special purpose spaces related to campaigns or competitions.
- Manual Selection - Allows you to handpick the updates, articles and events that are displayed on your screens. This is a great option for communicating the most important corporate communications across the organization, but must be maintained as content can expire.
1. Autofeed
To automatically feed content to Workvivo TV:
- Click the Autofeed option (this is the default).
- Select an audience. The audience can be global, and/or a combination of spaces and teams.
- If selected a summary of the spaces/ teams will display on screen.
Exclude Accounts
If you are feeding content automatically from spaces/ teams but still want to have control over content from specific accounts, you can do this by listing the accounts to exclude. Note: This functionality is not available if using the manual content selector.
To exclude a user account:
- Click on the “Select Exclude Accounts” input field
- Select one or more user accounts to exclude
- Click “Ok”
- Review excluded accounts
2. Manual Selection
To manually select feed content to Workvivo TV:
- Click the “Use Selected Content” toggle to on.
- Click the “Add Content” button, a pop up will then appear.
There are two ways to manually add content to the summary template
- Add Link - Allows you to manually paste a URL from anywhere in the application.
- Select Content - Allows you to search for content.
Add Link
- Select the content type. This can be an Activity Feed Item, Article, or Event.
- Provide a title; this will help you better identify the content.
- Enter the URL; this must be content within Workvivo.
- Provide an expiration date; content will remain on the screens until manually removed or the content expires.
Select Content
- Scroll through all the latest content chronologically or search for specific pieces of content.
- View a preview of the content or click the view button to be taken to the update, article or event.
- Click the green + icon.
- Once the + icon is clicked, the URL will be copied and automatically populated in the “Add Link” screen.
- Fill out the remaining details, including the title and expiration date.
- Click Save.
You can view all content's status and expiration date from the content table. The type of content is easily identifiable by its icon.
Please Note: A maximum of 5 activity feed items, 3 news articles and 3 events can be selected and displayed.
QR Code
The QR code is a powerful tool for promoting content and driving behavior. Common use cases for the QR code include:
- Driving downloads of the mobile app
- Running competitions
- Linking to Awards nominations
To generate and display a QR code, provide the following:
- Description (this will be displayed on the screen to provide more content to the employee)
- Link (this can be a URL for any content and does not need to originate within Workvivo)
- Once a URL is entered a QR code will be automatically generated
