Device Groups

Device groups let you organise endpoints into logical collections for bulk management, content targeting, and administrative convenience.

Creating a Group

  1. Navigate to Endpoints
  2. Click Groups in the toolbar
  3. Click New Group
  4. Name the group (e.g. “Lobby Screens”, “Retail — North Region”, “Meeting Rooms Floor 3”)
  5. Add endpoints to the group by selecting them

Group Operations

Once endpoints are grouped, you can perform bulk operations:

OperationDescription
Assign ContentPush a scene to all endpoints in the group
Set ScheduleApply schedule rules to all endpoints
Power ScheduleSet on/off times for all devices
Emergency BroadcastSend an emergency message to the group
Update SettingsChange resolution, orientation, or other settings

Nested Groups

Groups can be nested for hierarchical organisation:

All Devices Retail North Region Store 001 Store 002 South Region Store 003 Corporate HQ Lobby Meeting Rooms

Operations on a parent group cascade to all child groups.

Content Targeting

Groups enable content targeting — different content for different locations:

  1. Create groups by location, department, or purpose
  2. Assign different scenes to each group
  3. Manage content centrally while maintaining per-group customisation

Dynamic Groups

Dynamic groups automatically include endpoints matching criteria:

CriteriaExample
Name patternEndpoints matching lobby-*
TagEndpoints tagged retail
LocationEndpoints in a geographic area
Device typeEndpoints using Samsung Tizen devices

Dynamic group membership updates automatically as endpoints are added, removed, or changed.
