How do I create and manage Shortcuts?

Create a shortcut

From the app Shortcuts, or from the tab Shortcuts of a community in the Communities Space, click on New shortcut.

A community administrator can open shortcut creation to all its members. See How do you enable the creation of sections and shortcuts for the members of a community?.

Types of shortcuts

• Link (CrawledUrl): URL to an external or internal website. A preview is automatically generated with the site's title, description, and image.

• Document (PDF): reference to an uploaded PDF file. The preview shows the first page of the document.

• Media (Image): image file with thumbnail.

Configuration

• Title : shortcut name as it will be displayed

• Content : URL, PDF document or image depending on the selected type

• Communities : select the Communities in which the shortcut will be visible

• TV screens : configure on which TV screens the shortcut should appear (with the option to enable/disable per screen)

Edit a shortcut

From the list of shortcuts in Administration, click an existing shortcut to:

• Edit the title

• Change the content (URL, document or image)

• Update the Communities and TV screens

Delete a shortcut

From the list of shortcuts, select a shortcut and click Delete. Deletion is permanent.

Reorder shortcuts
