Hello,
How do I send a message to the CMS API to invoke a Push message to the Player. I wish to send an “Emergency” alert to the CMS which then invokes the Player to immediately display a specific Emergency Alert Message/Picture. I then wish to Cancel the Emergency alert when the Emergency is over.
I do this by calling an emergency layout that pulls data from a RSS feed. First you need to make the layout. Then you can post on the following end point when the emergency is happening:
/displaygroup/{displayGroupId}/action/changeLayout
If you want to switch back to the scheduled layout, you can use this end point:
/displaygroup/{displayGroupId}/action/revertToSchedule
You can review end points at

Keep in mind the display(s) need to be in a display group. Also, remember you need to get your access token. You can google tutorials on that.
