Content management
Prepare content files and validate their rollout target before deployment.
Use Content management to prepare and distribute media files to devices across the estate.
Content management helps you upload files once and deploy them to selected devices through rollouts.
When to use this page
Use this page when you need to:
prepare content before rollout
confirm whether one file set should go to one device or many
understand how content preparation fits into the rollout flow
Before you start
Confirm that:
your role allows you to manage content or schedule content rollouts
the content files are ready for upload
you know which devices or device groups should receive the content
If you plan to deploy the content next, review:
What content management supports
Use content management to:
upload static images, animations, audio files, and video files
prepare content before rollout
distribute media to selected devices
support targeted messaging across the device estate
How content is used
Content files are uploaded to Device Management first.
After upload, the content can be scheduled for download to selected devices through the rollout workflow.
This approach helps you manage estate-wide content updates without loading files onto devices one by one.
Content readiness checks
Before you move to scheduling, confirm that:
the files are final and ready for device use
the target devices or groups are known
the rollout should deliver content now instead of software or parameters
Record the final file set and intended target scope. Do not schedule a rollout until every selected device should receive the same content.
Record the final file set, intended audience, and deployment window. Stop if the files or target scope need further approval.
Common use cases
Use content management when you need to:
update branded media on devices
deliver promotional or informational messaging
distribute shared content to many devices at once
Choose the right rollout target
Use these rules:
choose the single-device rollout when one device needs a targeted content change
choose the batch rollout when many devices should receive the same files
confirm device or group scope before you schedule the content download
How content management fits into rollouts
Content management is the preparation stage for content deployment.
Most content rollout work follows this order:
upload the content files to Device Management
select the target devices or groups
schedule the rollout
monitor rollout progress and results
Verify before rollout
Before you leave content management, confirm that:
the intended files are available
the rollout scope is clear
the next rollout page matches the delivery target
the files and target scope match the deployment plan
the selected files and target scope match the deployment plan
