Screenly 26.9.8: Column choices and CSV export for Screens and Playlists

Thu, 24 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000

With a few hundred screens, the question is often about one detail across all of them: which player version each one runs, or which local IP address a screen picked up. The Screens page can now show that next to each screen’s name.

Open “Table settings” on the Screens or Playlists page to show, hide, and reorder columns. Your choice is saved to your account, so it’s there the next time you open the page, in any browser.

The columns you can add:

Screens: Labels, State, Hostname, Player version, Device, Local IP, MAC, and Created.
Playlists: Plays on, Priority, Transition, Items, and Created.

“Export” downloads a CSV file of what the table shows: the columns you’ve chosen, and every row that matches your search, not only the page you’re on.

What looks different

The Screens page opens with Name, Status, and Content status, and the Playlists page with Title, Duration, and State. Labels on Screens and Plays on on Playlists are off until you turn them on. The Playlists column that was called Status is now State, the same as on Screens.

Search looks only in the columns that are showing, so to find screens by a label’s name, turn the Labels column on first.

Screenly 26.9.8: Playlists on API v4 and v4.1 include when they were created

Thu, 24 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Playlists returned by /v4/playlists and /v4.1/playlists now carry a created_at field with the time the playlist was created, such as 2023-05-30T11:19:22+00:00. You can filter on it like any other field, so created_at=gte.2026-09-01 lists the playlists made since September 1, 2026.

It’s the same date the Playlists page shows in its new Created column.

Screenly 26.9.8: Tables across the dashboard work the same way, and other improvements

Thu, 24 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Fixes

Creating a workspace with a name that’s too long or contains a tab now says what’s wrong with the name, instead of creating the workspace without a name.
A workspace can no longer be renamed to nothing, or to a name made only of spaces, which left a blank name in the sidebar. A name that’s turned down comes with a message saying why, rather than a generic error.
Dragging content onto a folder on the Content page lights up the whole folder, so you can see where it will land.

Improvements

Workspace names can be as short as 1 character, so a company called X can call its workspace X.
Tables across the dashboard share one look and behave the same way: status columns use the same badges, previews and page controls match, and sorting, search, and paging work alike in every table.
