Dashboard
The dashboard is the landing point of your account. In the middle, there is a map picturing your online listeners and the countries in which they are located. Highlighting a country, will show you how many listeners are active, if any. Clicking on a country with at least one listener, will present a more detailed view.
All the information shown here, applies for all the stations that are under this account combined.
Monitoring
In Monitoring you can check the condition in which your station(s) are with the help of many different filtering options. The connected stations appear on the main page and any disconnected stations appear at the bottom right column, filtered by the period of time these disconnections might have occurred. You can search the stations by name or stream, check the ones with the most or least listeners active, choose to filter the ones connected with the primary or the failover server address or the ones using a relay link as their source. Note that Loop channel stations will show “relay” under the “source” section when the playlist has taken over.
Here is a list of what the indications shown in this section represent:
Green indication:
The source (encoder) is properly connected and its audio is broadcasted via the station
Blue indication:
There is an active connection from an encoder to the gateway system
Blinking indication:
Notifies when there is a transition/change on the highlighted connections
Gray indication:
There are no active connections. Please note that this is expected when the source of the station is a Relay.
Stations
In the Stations section is where you can view the station(s) under your account and add new ones. You can also search for specific stations under your account as well as choose if relays will appear among them or not.
Podcasts
This is where you can create and manage your podcasts. For more information on the Podcasts section, click here.
People
In the people section you can add Account Admins by sending an invitation to their emails. Any user that receives this email, will be able to create his/her own credentials and from that point be able to manage the account. To invite other Account Admins, simply click on “Add People” at the top right of the page and click on “Admin”. Type the email address, click on it and press “Send invitation”. Until the invitee accepts, the invitation will be pending and an envelope symbol will appear next to the invitee’s email. You can delete an account admin or invitee by clicking on the bin symbol on the right side of each user.
Analytics
An account admin will have the option to get analytics reports through the Analytics section. To get a report, you will first need to choose the period of time that you wish this report to be generated for. Under the “period” section, first choose between the ones given (if you choose “custom”, you will need to also specify the dates) and click on “get analytics”.

Session Rules
The Session Rules refer to an IP-based filtering method, that allows an account administrator to route the listeners through a certain stream or a group of streams, with various actions being applied.
Some examples of how the rules can be applied are:
redirecting listeners from different countries to alternative content, different bitrates and even particular advertising serving static media files and/ or on demand Vast ads.
Allowing specific groups of listeners to reach a station’s broadcast only on specific time-frames.
