Workvivo TV - Adding Content

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:

1. 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. 
2. 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 as this will help you better identify the content.
• Enter the URL (Note: 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 - Displayed on the screen to provide more content to the employee
• Link - URL for any content and does not need to originate within Workvivo
  • Once a URL is entered a QR code will be automatically generated
