Tagging is a powerful and flexible system in Navori QL designed to ensure the right content plays on the right screen, every time. It works by creating a set of rules that automatically manage content playback across your network. In this article, we’ll walk you through how to apply tags to your players.
Accessing the Tag Assignment Window
All player tagging happens within the Tag Assignment Window. To access this:
Click on Settings (located in the top right-hand corner of your Navori Domain)
Hover over the Player Management drop-down menu
Select Tag Assignment
The Tag Assignment Window is divided into 6 main areas, see the screenshot below, along with descriptions of each of the areas:
Create Tag button (+TAG)
TAG table, which lists all of the created tags)
Tag Search Field, allows you to search for specific tags from your domain
PLAYERS table, which lists all of the players that the user has access to
The Player Group filter, this drop-down menu allows you to filter what group of players appear in the PLAYERS table below
The Player Search area, which contains:
A search field, allowing you to search for a specific player name to filter which players appear in the PLAYERS table
Import CSV, allows you to import a CSV file containing a comma separated list of the names of the Players you wish to display in the PLAYERS table, allowing you to filter what players appear for selection
Clipboard Paste, allows you to paste a list of specific player names of players to filter which selection of players appear in the PLAYERS table
Please Note
When using either Import CSV or Clipboard Paste, you’ll need to ensure the player names match exactly as they are listed in your Navori Domain. Any non-matches will not appear in the PLAYERS table.
Creating Tags
Click the +TAG button to create a new tag
Give your tag a name and press Done
Upon completing the steps above, your new tag will appear below in the TAG table.
Assigning Tags to Players
From the TAG table, select the tag you’d like to apply to one (or multiple players), upon selecting your tag it will be highlighted in green
With your tag highlighted, select the checkbox next to the players you’d like to apply the tag to from the PLAYERS table on the right (you can also use the checkbox in the header to select ALL players that appear in the PLAYERS table)
Once you have finished with your selection/applying tags to players, press OK to close the Tag Assignment Window
Filtering Your Player Selection
There are a few ways to filter the list of players that appear in the PLAYERS table, streamlining the process of applying tags to a larger selection of players.
Using the Groups drop-down menu: this allows you to filter what players appear in the PLAYERS table based on the existing groups in your Navori Domain. By default, this is set to All Groups. Select a specific group (or multiple groups) to refine the number of players that will appear in the PLAYERS table.
Using the Search Bar: using this search bar will allow you to enter specific characters/values that appear in the name of the players you want to display
In addition to the two filtering methods mentioned above, you can also filter players using a CSV file containing the exact names of all the players you wish to apply tags to, or using the Clipboard Paste option, which allows you to copty/paste the names of all of the players you wish to apply tags to. See the following section for more information on these processes:
Bulk Filter Players Using a CSV File
By creating a CSV file containing the exact names of all of your players as they appear in your Navori Domain seperated by a comma (for example: “Player 1, Player 2, Player 3”), you’re able to isolate the list of players displayed in the PLAYERS table to, allowing you to quickly bulk select any corresponding media players. With your CSV created:
Click the Import CSV button
When a dialogue box appears, click OK to proceed
Select your CSV file then press Open
If any information in your CSV file matches the names of your players on your Navori Domain, any matches will be shown in the PLAYERS table. Any non-matches will be skipped.
You can then proceed to select which players you’d like to apply your chosen tag to.
Bulk Filter Players Using Clipboard Paste
Similarly to the process of filtering the PLAYERS table using a CSV file, you can copy/paste the names of your existing players on your Navori Domain to isolate which players are displayed in the table. To do so:
From within the Tag Assignment Window, click Clipboard Paste
Enter/Paste the names of your media players exactly as they appear in your Navori Domain, ensuring each listed player name is on it’s own row
Press OK
If any information that you have entered here matches any records/names of players on your Navori Domain, these devices will be displayed in the table view and can then be selected. Any non-matches will not be displayed in the table view.
You can then complete the Tag Assignment process by pressing OK.
