Using Multiple Outputs

This article explains how to create, manage, and update multiple outputs from a single graphics package.

Updated over a week ago

You can generate multiple outputs from a single graphics package. Each output created includes:

  • A dedicated control interface

  • A unique API token

  • An individual output endpoint

All outputs share the same underlying package logic and design but can operate independently through their respective control interfaces.

Changes made to the master graphics package can be propagated to all associated outputs with a single action. This simplifies package maintenance and ensures consistency across outputs.

Typical Use Cases

1. Simultaneous sports broadcasts

A league with multiple matches running in parallel can use one shared graphics package to generate an individual output per match. Branding remains consistent, while data inputs (e.g., scores, team info) vary per output, either through the control interface or API.

2. Channel branding across local stations

A media group can maintain a single template for all its stations. One output is created per station, each connected to station-specific data sources. For example, a shared ticker or L-Bar layout can display localized content based on the selected output.


Creating Multiple Outputs

  • Publish your Graphic package.

  • Navigate to the Graphics module within the Project dashboard

  • Click on 'Create Output'.

  • Choose the desired location for the output by clicking the Change button.

  • Name your Output.

  • Click on 'Create'.

Within your Project find the Outputs card you will find the Default Output and the multiple output that you just created. There you can

  • Enable you Output

  • Rename your Outputs

  • Delete your Outputs.

After creating a multiple Output within your dashboard, you will be able to see how many Outputs are associated with the graphics package.


Accessing Outputs API Token

Each output has a unique graphics API token, which is used to integrate the output with external systems or custom control interfaces.

The image below shows the same graphics package with two different outputs. Each output has its own settings, like API token, URL, etc.

Publishing Changes Across Outputs

When changes are made to a graphics package, you can propagate those updates to all associated outputs.

To publish updates:

  • Click Publish.

  • Select Update Outputs.

This process updates all linked outputs to reflect the most recent version of the graphics package. Bear in mind these changes won't apply until you update your Remote Control interface.


Updating the Remote Control Interface

After publishing changes, each output's control interface will display an 'Update' button.

This feature allows operators to manually refresh the interface, ensuring that updates are applied when needed and giving them control over when changes are implemented during live operations.
