Requirements before you begin
Access to the Microsoft Teams Rooms Pro Management Platform
A Microsoft Teams Rooms (MTR) device already enrolled on the platform (see Microsoft's documentation if you haven't yet configured a device)
Access to your Navori QL domain URL
A free licence available within your Navori Domain (required only if you intend to set up Auto Activation)
Your Microsoft Teams Rooms (MTR) devices represent a significant investment in meeting and collaboration technology. However, when a meeting is not in session, the large display often sits idle — a valuable, highly visible screen that is underutilised.
This is where the power of integrating Navori QL Player comes in. By leveraging Navori's enterprise-grade digital signage platform directly on your MTR devices, you can automatically convert those idle screens into dynamic, high-impact communication channels.
In this article, we will outline how you can install QL Player on your Microsoft Teams Rooms devices.
Adding QL Player as your Digital Signage in Microsoft Teams
Head to the Microsoft Teams Rooms Pro Management Platform
Click Settings
Select Digital Signage from the drop-down menu
Toggle Digital Signage to the On state
Click Add Source
From the General area, give your source content a Name (required) and Description (optional) of your choosing
Select Next
From the Select Source area, select the Custom radio button and enter the URL for the Navori QL Web Player: https://europe.navori.com/QLPlayer
Select the Set as Default Source for the Tenant checkbox
Select Next
Review the Acknowledge Terms section then click Next
In the Review and Finish section, review the settings and press Submit when you're ready
Finally, press Done when you reach a section that reads New Digital Signage Source Added
Please Note
The following section assumes you already have a Teams Rooms device added to the Microsoft Teams Rooms Pro Management Platform. If you have not yet configured a device, please read Microsoft's documentation before proceeding.
Activating Digital Signage on your Teams Devices
Click the Rooms tab located in the left-most menu pane
In the Rooms menu, select the device you'd like to activate Digital Signage on
When the menu pane opens, click Settings
Click the Digital Signage tab
Toggle Digital Signage to the On state
At the bottom of this same screen, under the Signage Source area, ensure that the Signage Source you configured in the previous section is selected
Click Apply to save the configuration
When the Save Digital Signage Settings dialogue box appears, choose when you'd like to apply these new settings and then press Submit
Upon completing the steps above, the Activation Page will appear on your Microsoft Teams Rooms device once your digital signage source begins displaying on your device. At this stage, you can connect a USB Keyboard to your device and use the TAB key to navigate and the SPACE key to select in order to complete the activation process.
Auto Activation for QL Player on Microsoft Teams Rooms Devices
You can also auto-activate your Microsoft Teams Device during the initial configuration by making some adjustments to the Source URL within the Microsoft Teams Rooms Pro Management Platform.
Please Note: Before following this section, you'll need a free licence available within your Navori Domain, along with the specific domain URL for the instance of Navori QL you are accessing.

Summary
By adding Navori QL Player as a Digital Signage source within the Microsoft Teams Rooms Pro Management Platform, you can turn idle MTR displays into an active communication channel — either activating manually via the on-device Activation Page, or configuring Auto Activation to skip that step entirely using a licensed Source URL.
