Live Stream Node

Live Stream Node

The Live Stream node lets you broadcast real-time content from another web page using a URL. For example, you could use this node to display a feed from a live streaming camera.

Adding a Live Stream node to your workflow

1. Select a solution and navigate to Rayven Workflow.
2. Select ‘Visualizations’ from the left-hand panel.
3. Find the Live Stream node and drag it onto the canvas.
4. Connect the Live Stream node to your input node.
5. Double click on the Live Stream node to open its configuration window.

Configuring your Live Stream node

1. First, give your widget a Name. Choose something simple that clearly explains its purpose. You must pick a name that has three or more characters.
2. Next, enter the Live Stream URL. 
3. If you want, you can add a Widget Subtitle. This additional text helps explain the data presented to the end-user.
4. Select the Device/Device Label Name checkbox if you want the device name or device label name to appear on the end display.
   
   

Grouping by Device Label

You need to select how data should be grouped and displayed on the widget. To group data by device label, you must first create at least one label in the Device Labels section of the Workspace. See Creating Device Labels and Configuring Nodes Using Labels for more information.

1. Enter your chosen label under Device Label Name. 
2. Select how you want the widget on the dashboard to be grouped:
   • No Grouping (widget per device): one Live Stream widget will appear for each device.
   • Group by device label value (widget per label value): one Live Stream widget will appear for each unique value label. For example, if the device label is ‘Color’ and the label values are ‘Green’ and ‘Gold’, the dashboard will show two widgets. One will contain data for devices labeled ‘Green’ and the other for devices labeled ‘Gold’.
   • Group by device label name (one widget): only one Live Stream widget will be displayed. It will contain data from all devices with the selected device label.
