Until now, live slides could only show data InfoSlides went and fetched. A new Push source type turns that around: your own system sends a small piece of data whenever something changes, and every slide on that source updates. Queue numbers, meter readings and scores can now reach a screen the moment they happen.
A slide that waits for its data
A slide on a Push source stays hidden until the first data arrives, so a screen never shows an empty layout. You can also choose to hide it again when data stops coming, and it returns with the next update.
Connect from the Sources page
A Push source shows when data last arrived instead of fetch controls. Its Connect panel gives you the address to send data to, and lets you create keys that can only push to that source. Revoke a key at any time.
One live data slide on every plan
Every plan, the free one included, can now run one live data slide fed by one Push source. Professional and above have no limit.
Three ready-made boards to try it with
A Queue Board for a clinic reception, an Impact Board that shows an office's energy, water and waste story for the day, and a Live Match Multi-Score Board for game night. Each one is designed to be fed by pushed data, and you can see them running in the public template gallery.
What this means for you: a queue counter, a sensor or a scoreboard can drive a screen directly, with no feed to publish and no polling delay.
