In Games & Apps → Settings, you can set basic content parameters, сreate categories and tags, restrict access to cards and your license pool, and enable centralized updates.
Categories and Tags
Before configuring content cards, create categories and tags so that you can easily choose them when setting up a game or app card. This makes it easier and faster to find the content you need, both in the admin panel and the PC gaming interface (Shell).
Content Categories
Categories are the primary sections used to group content for easier navigation (for example, Games and Apps).
To create a category:
Go to Categories.
Click +Add Category.
Enter a name (for example: Games, Applications).
Click Add.
Toggle the switch next to the category to activate it.
Added categories can be enabled, disabled, edited, deleted, and reordered by dragging. The buttons and controls are available next to each category.
📎 If your organization operates in multiple languages, go to Settings → Admin Panel Interface, select the languages for content filling. After that, when creating categories, you will be able to add all necessary translations and save the changes.
Tags
Tags allow more accurate content searches and filtering by genre or features (for example, "Multiplayer", "Strategy").
To create a tag:
Go to Tags.
Enter a label (for example: Shooter, Multiplayer, Strategy).
Click on + to add it.
To delete a tag, click the × next to it.
User Access
Сross-zone availability — displays games that are available in other zones. This allows users to see which games and applications can be accessed on PCs located in different zones.
License pool — manage access for unregistered visitors and postpaid users.
Age restrictions — an option to restrict access to certain content based on age. If you enable this toggle, you can set a minimum age for accessing each content card. Users who have not reached the required age will not be able to launch that content.
Game Updates (available only for Premium subscription)
Game Update is a feature that automatically updates games from Steam and Epic Games. Updates can run automatically or be launched manually through the admin panel, giving you centralized control over the content.
Activating Game Update
Open Games & Apps → Settings.
Activate the option Enable Game Update + contact the support team for additional technical settings.
-
Choose a mode:
Automatic — the system updates games from Steam and Epic Games as soon as a new version is available.
Manual — you can launch updates from the Venue library tab whenever you want.
Automatic and Manual Updates
To have games update automatically when a new version appears, enable the Automatic Update option.
If you use game updates, make sure to fill out the Game Paths setting.
If your organization has several offices, a separate setting will be available for each office.
If the option is disabled, manual updates will be available from the Venue Library tab. With manual updates, you can update specific offices and PCs separately or all at once.
Games Paths
Game paths are settings for drives and folder paths used for automatic installation and updating of games via Steam and Epic Games. The path will be used if no other path is set in the game card.
-
Specify the path to the Epic Games folder, not the Epic Games launcher (without .exe). Games and updates will be downloaded to this folder.
For example, C:\ProgramFiles\Epic Games\
If you want to update games from Steam via Game Update, be sure to specify the path to the Steam games folder as well.
You can select the standard drive and additional ones, as well as set paths for each platform individually.
Where to Start?
Create categories for games and applications.
Add key tags (e.g., Multiplayer, Online) to make it easier to search for content by feature.
Enable 'Show unavailable content in other zones' so users can see what's available on the other PCs.
Configure access to venue licenses.
Don’t forget to save changes at the bottom of the page.
