Is there a way of having a spreadsheet saved in a shared folder and opening it into an xibo player, wth an auto update. So if we update the spreadsheet, it updates the player.
It would be probably best to either have that saved as html format and put it in the /shared/web/userscripts and then in Xibo use embedded html module with an iframe that would point to the file.
So a file that is in that path as above ie for example: /shared/web/userscripts/sheet.html
can be accessed via, for example:
ie http://server.example.org/userscripts/sheet.html
Obviously you’d replace the server.example.org with your CMS address.
Then in Embedded html module, you can put an iframe pointing to that ie:
<iframe width="1920" height="1080" src="http://server.example.org/userscripts/sheet.html" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen><iframe>
You can also use the webpage widget with the url to the file, for example: http://server.example.org/userscripts/sheet.html
Now every time you make changes to the sheet and save it with the same name as a .html file in the /userscripts Xibo should show updated version of it.
Alternatively save that as .csv and use dataSets (you can import csv to dataSets) either manually or via API call.
Could it be set top auto update
Which one? auto update and auto import .csv would require API integration.
the html file, should be updated once you save an updated version of it with the same name in the same path.
