In order to publish a Takeover event to your Players, you’ll first need a Takeover Group configured. A Takeover Group is the group of Players that will display your Takeover content in sync. This article outlines the process of creating your first Takeover Group.

If you do not have the Network &gt; Takeover Groups option in your Signagelive Network, this is because it has not been enabled for you. If you believe this is an error, please <a href="https://intercom-help.eu/signagelive/en/articles/137674" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">get in touch</a> with our Support Team.
