With the SharePoint widget, you can display your news items from SharePoint on your digital signage screens.
With the SharePoint widget, you can easily link your SharePoint sites to the CMS, allowing you to quickly and easily display news items on your digital signage screens.
If there are no news items on the site, you will see in the widget that no data is available. In that case, check if you did post a message on the SharePoint Site.
Configuring the SharePoint Widget
Setting up the widget is easy and can be completed in a few steps. Follow these steps to link your Microsoft account with the CMS:
In the "Site" input field of the widget, make sure the site names are exactly the same as you see them in SharePoint.
Microsoft Account Link
Log in with your Microsoft account to create the link between SharePoint and the CMS.
The page must be an internal communication site.
The user you are logging in with must have access to the SharePoint page you want to display. Make sure the user is listed under the "Access site" button at the top right of a SharePoint page.
Access to Pages
Make sure you have appropriate access rights to the SharePoint pages you want to display via the widget.
The only images the widget can display are those included in the headline of the news item. Images included in the text will not be displayed. Standard Microsoft images (e.g. from templates) will NOT be shown.
After completing these steps, you can immediately display news items from your SharePoint site on your digital signage screens.
