With you're Hivestack API (and Device ScreenIDs if using Device Mode) set up, you now need to configure a playlist and layout for content playback.

Either create a new layout or edit an existing one.

Then, go into a zone playlist and select the 'Plugins' section:

Find the Hivestack plugin and select it.

With it now inserted into the playlist you will see a few settings.

First is to choose the Hivestack APIs you've set up.

Then you'll see the available 'Ad Areas', if using that feature.

You can then select which Ad Area you want to use in this specific Zone. For example, if the zone is placed at the Top of the layout, we could select the relevant Ad Area so the ads are pulled in related to the that Ad Area here only.

Finally 'Playback Limit' which is to either let all ads play (Unlimited) or to define a max number of ads to play at any one time (Limited):

If using the Limited feature, you can specify a numerical value to limit how many Hivestack ads are shown. Once this number is reached, the embed playtlist will move to the next item. This allows you to interject standard embed playlist content with Hivestack ads and limit how many to play at any given time.

With your Hivestack playlist item configured, you can now save the playlist and publish to your devices.

If you want to preview the ads before publishing, click save + preview on the layout and then in the 'Device' dropdown, select a device to preview by.

Using Device Mode, ensure the ScreenIDs are set for the Device you choose in the preview. If using Location Mode, ensure the Device chosen in the preview is in the Location of the Ad area.
