Hi all,We’re currently streaming BBC News on a few of our office TVs (BrightSign) using a link from our own server. As we’re moving to the cloud, those servers will be retired.I’ve been trying to find an alternative, but no luck so far since BBC UK doesn’t provide a streaming link.Is anyone else streaming live news? If so, what solution are you using?

Hi everyone 👋I’ve started exploring and testing the Visitor Management feature and wanted to get your thoughts.Does anyone use it regularly and have tips on how to make the most of it?Also, do you find it helpful that visitor bookings show up in both Reservations and the Visitors tab? It can get a bit tricky to filter between room bookings, desk bookings, and visitor bookings in the Reservations tab.Thanks,Michaela

I would like to use your World Clock template.  I can find the correct time zone but can’t edit the title to reflect the actual “location within the timezone” is there a way to do that?  I can find Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA - but I want it to read Winsted, MinnesotaI can find Mexico City, Mexico - but want it to read Izcali, Mexico 

If you’ve had a reservation cancelled and you are not sure why, check out the event action logs within analytics! From the Dashboard, under Admin, click on Analytics. Then select the Reports tab. You’ll then hit Create and scroll down to the Events Action Log option. You can customize the report generated by date, location, user, and action type that you are looking for. Most frequently, cancellations that are unexpected will be associated with the event action type of “ResourceDeclinedDueToConflict”. Often people may book meetings via Outlook, but the room may have some additional constraints in Appspace that create a conflict. Reviewing this report can give helpful information to see why something may have been cancelled and to track changes.  

When I first started building AI assistants in Appspace, my instinct was to load it up with every tool I could think of on Day 1. Search this, fetch that, summarise the other. The thinking was, give it everything and it'll be brilliant.It wasn't. It got slower, the tool selection got fuzzier, and half the tools I'd carefully built barely got called.The hack: ship your assistant with one tool. The most obvious, highest-value one. Nothing else.Then build an AI Usage dashboard for your assistant, a week later and look at what people actually asked. That tells you tool #2. Watch it for another week, that tells you tool #3.You end up with an assistant that's faster, sharper, and built around what your users genuinely need, not what you guessed they'd need on Day 1.Bonus: tool descriptions matter more than you think. Short, action-led, specific. The model picks tools based on the description, not your system prompt.#HindsightHack

Digital signage devices are often purpose-built with embedded hardware (System on Chip). That means there's no way to upgrade the hardware to get more bang for your buck, so optimizing your content is where the wins are.Reducing the bitrate of content can both preserve the image quality in the video and reduce the overall file size. This is great for Progressive Web App, (PWA) devices, and devices that do not cache content and only stream. By managing the bitrate you can reduce your overall bandwidth consumption on those devices.For the purpose of this exercise I will be targeting a 1920x1080 video at 30fps. Afterwards I will do the same with a 3840x1080 (Landscape, dual 1080p screen) video at 30fps for Video Wall applications. Lastly I’ll perform the same calculations for standard 4K, 3840x2160. The Codec we will be using is H.264 (MP4). --------------------------------------Calculating the optimal bitrate for a video isn't a

To keep the momentum moving and make sure we’re all hitting those "Level Up" goals, I’m officially opening the floor. I'll be keeping a close eye on this space to see who the real experts are, but I’ll kick things off so you don't have to start with a blank page.Looking back, these are the simple moves that separate the Appspace amateurs from the pros. If you aren't doing these three things yet, your future self is going to wonder why you liked doing things the hard way!💡 The "Work Smarter" TrifectaTag Early, Tag Often: Don't treat your Library like a junk drawer.

Is there any way to obtain from Appspace the unique identifier (number etc) for a meeting that has been scheduled?  Is there any way to retrieve that identifier or have it confirmed to show up on the admin screens? Thank You

I have a display that allows users to interact with a card.  The card and interaction work fine, but the logistics are causing some issues.The display is mounted about 10 feet in the air and about 5 feet from the actual user work area.   The primary purpose for the display is to communicate data to everyone in the area, but a few times on each shift, a user needs to enter some simple data.Enter the cursor.  On the large screen, at that distance, with safety glasses on, the cursor is very hard to see.  All I want to do is change the cursor size and maybe color to make it stand out more.The display boxes are Chrome units.  I can change the cursor details in Chrome, but once AppSpace launches, the cursor reverts to standard.If would be nice to have a card that does not display on the screen, but allows background details to be edited such as cursor size, screen scaling, etc.Any suggestions or Ideas?Thanks.-Mike 

I'm having issues creating a passport for a Tableau card to show a private visualization on Tableau Server. The error message is benign and not helpful for troubleshooting so wondering if there is any know tips for success.

Important Note: There’s a difference between Appspace App for Windows and Appspace App for Universal Windows Platform (UWP WebView2). Appspace App for Windows is a standard executable file that launches at startup. Appspace UWP is the Microsoft Store version and allows you to use the native Windows Assigned Access (Kiosk mode) function. This topic pertains to Appspace App for Windows, not UWP. Both installers are available in Appspace: Top left menu icon > System > Downloads. Problem: When the local Windows account logs in, the desktop and taskbar displays for a moment before the Appspace software launches. Not only is this unattractive for signage, but it can also indicate to nefarious actors that this endpoint is an easy target for network exploitation. It’s easy to exit the software with keyboard shortcuts like Windows key or CTRL ALT DEL to close it and access the Windows desktop. Disclaimer: Th

 QUESTION: How do I see the provider email that is associated with a specific resource?ANSWER: When resource names are changed within Appspace, sometimes it is difficult to know what provider resource the Appspace resource is tied to. While you cannot see this value visually on your console or dashboard, you are able to view this value within the browser developer tools.Within the Appspace Admin Console, select the 3-line menu in the upper-left corner of the screen. Select the Reservations module.
