Publishing Your Playlist

Once the Playlist Publishing feature is enabled, changes made to a playlist will be saved as drafts. Users can then click "send a publish request" to have their changes reviewed and approved. An email notification will be sent to the designated "playlist approver," providing a link to the respective playlist for review.

The playlist will only be published when the "Publish" button on the Playlist page is clicked by a user with publishing permissions.

(visible to only the approver) Clicking the publish button will make the playlist live on screens associated with that playlist.

By leveraging the Playlist Publishing feature, administrators can maintain control over content, ensuring that playlists go through a review process before being published, leading to a streamlined and curated viewing experience for their audience.
