Understanding triggers in the Zapier + Fusion Signage integration
The Zapier integration allows you to connect other applications to Fusion Signage and automate media uploads.
Every Zap contains:
- A trigger, which starts the automation
- An action, which Zapier performs after the trigger occurs
For example: When a new image is added to a Google Drive folder, automatically upload it to Fusion Signage.
In this workflow, the new file is the trigger and uploading it to Fusion Signage is the action.
Does Fusion Signage provide triggers?
Fusion Signage does not currently provide its own Zapier triggers.
This means an event within Fusion Signage, such as a screen going offline cannot currently start a Zap.
Instead, the trigger comes from another connected application. Fusion Signage is then used as the action at the end of the workflow.
What Fusion Signage action is available?
The current Fusion Signage action is:
Upload Media
This action uploads a media item to a selected folder in your Fusion Signage media library.
The following information is required:
- Name: The name given to the media item
- Media URL: A URL Zapier and Fusion Signage can use to access the file
- Folder: The destination folder in your Fusion Signage media library
Fusion Signage does not currently provide Zapier actions for adding the uploaded media to a playlist or publishing it to a screen.
