Procedure

Step Methods available
1. Create the event with the desired static overlays. Use the REST API or the web interface.
2. Start the event. Use the REST API or the web interface.
3. While the event is running, set up more static overlays as desired. Use the REST API.

You can implement all features described in this section via REST as well as the web interface. This section describes how to use the web interface to insert a graphic overlay. For instructions on doing so via REST, see Using the REST API for static overlays.

The following are valid web interface and REST API combinations:

  • Initial setup via web interface and run-time changes via the REST API.

  • Initial setup and run-time changes via the REST API.

If you use the web interface to perform the initial setup, note the following restrictions:

  • You cannot specify more than 8 static overlays in the event.

  • You must set up all the static overlays before the event starts to run; there is no mechanism for changing static overlays at runtime via the web interface.
