Coming soonDigital signage API and webhooks for teams that build
The public API and webhooks are on the way. DigitalSign is built API-first, so screens, designs, playlists, schedules and playback data will all be available to your own systems, with events sent the moment things change.
First 3 screens free. No credit card.
API-first by design
The dashboard is built on the same API that will be opened to customers.
Every core resource
Screens, groups, scenes, assets, playlists, campaigns, schedules, templates, data sources and playback.
Event webhooks
Get notified on screen.online, screen.offline, content.published and more.
Playback data out
Pull proof-of-play records into your own reporting tools.
The same API the app uses
DigitalSign is being built API-first, so the dashboard runs on the endpoints customers will use. The planned public API covers /screens, /groups, /scenes, /assets, /playlists, /campaigns, /schedules, /templates, /data-sources and /playback. That means anything you can do in the dashboard, such as pairing a screen, publishing a design or setting a schedule, can be automated from your own systems, whether that is a scheduling script or a full integration.
- /screens, /groups and /scenes
- /assets, /playlists and /templates
- /campaigns, /schedules and /data-sources
- /playback for proof-of-play data
Webhooks for the events that matter
Webhooks will send an event to your endpoint when something changes: screen.online, screen.offline, content.published, playback.completed, schedule.started and schedule.ended. Alert your IT team when a lobby screen drops off, log every published change to your audit system, or kick off a workflow when a campaign starts. Events arrive as they happen, so there is no need to poll the API for changes. Each event will carry the IDs you need to look up details.
- screen.online and screen.offline
- content.published
- playback.completed
- schedule.started and schedule.ended
Where the API fits in pricing
API and webhooks are planned for the Pro plan at $8 per screen per month. Inbound webhooks as a data source for your designs are part of the data integrations work, which is also on the way. Enterprise customers will get white label, custom domains and reseller options on top. We will publish full API documentation when the API opens.
- Planned for Pro, $8 per screen per month
- Full documentation at launch
