License status​

This page gives an overview of all the licenses in the installation or the licenses assigned to a specific site. All licenses are now managed from the Smartsign license portal. The summary will tell you how many licenses you have available in the active site and how many are used. If "Free" is a negative number, then you are using more licenses than you have available and some screens will be deactivated to compensate for it. Below the summary view you can see a detailed list of each license that has been allocated to the current site in the Smartsign license portal. Please note that the detail view is not refreshed when you click update licenses. If you wish to see the current details after an update you must reload the page first.

Active Directory​

On premise server installations can choose to use Microsoft Active Directory (AD) for authentication rather than the integrated user database. Please refer to the section [Active Directory Integration](Users/Active Directory/Active_Directory_Integration.md) for instructions on how to configure this.

Azure AD​

Azure AD integration is available for both on premise and Smartsign Cloud Service. For on premise server installations, please refer to the section Azure AD Integration for instructions on how to configure.

For Smartsign Cloud Service, please read Azure AD on Smartsign Cloud.

Authentication​

Allows you to configure settings for the authentication server and login page.

Email​

Configure email settings for the server here. In addition, further settings are available that control how email is used for each site. Those are configured on each individual site or through site profiles.

License​

Configuration for connecting to the Smartsign License portal at https://portal.smartsign.se.

Email alerts​

Email can be used for several purposes on your Smartsign Server. The main email configuration can be found under System Settings. If email is not configured under system settings, then no other email settings will work.
Most other settings are configured per site and can be found in the site settings.

Only users add to "email-group" will receive notifications, this includes both normal and admin users. Go to Management and then Groups

Development​

The development tab gives you an overview of the system API's, widgets and apps.

API​

All functionality in Smartsign is programmatically available through a standardized API. Create bookings, check screen status and approve media and more. The Smartsign API identifies Smartsign Applications using OAuth or Open Id. Responses are in JSON format (CORS enabled). The API is built on a subset of OData.

Widgets​

An Html Widget file is basically one or more html-files zipped together with a settings file and whatever files the html-pages need to work correctly. The zipped archive is renamed with the file extension .wgt. When booked on a screen, the widget will be unpacked and run as a a webpage on the player.
