Welcome to the Look Academy video tutorial, where we demonstrate how to use the Actions feature in Look digital signage. This powerful tool lets you show, hide, or update content based on external triggers, such as Google Sheets updates, calendar events, or Mailchimp leads.
Key Features:
- Automatically update digital menus when prices change in Google Sheets.
- Replace outdated promotions on schedule.
- Show greeting cards triggered by new Mailchimp leads or Google Calendar events.
How It Works:
- Set Up Actions in Look CMS: Create a layout and configure actions to modify text or content dynamically.
- Configure External Triggers: Use Zapier to sync Google Sheets or other tools with Look CMS.
- Test and Automate: Ensure data flows seamlessly from external sources to your displays.
