YouTube + First Arriving

First Arriving's integration with YouTube is a great way to get training videos, messages from leadership, and other video content front and center on your dashboards.

YouTube

What Connects

Your YouTube videos — on the wall, desktop, and in every pocket.

A playlist you control

Manage the playlist in your own YouTube account — add a video and it shows up on the dashboards, no ticket needed for the content itself.

On your schedule

Set what time of day the videos start and how long they keep playing.

Alarms always win

A call coming in takes priority. The video pauses for the duration of the alarm and starts again automatically once it clears.

At the size that fits your layout

Full screen, half screen, 3/4 screen, or 1/4 screen — our support team helps you pick based on your dashboard layout.

Or on demand from the menu

With the menu feature enabled, a YouTube item appears in your dashboard menu — selecting it plays the playlist, and pausing keeps it up longer (5 minutes by default).

Sample Views

See it on the dashboard.

Live in two steps.

01

Gather what we need

Your YouTube account, the playlist URL (set to Unlisted or Public), the time of day to start, how long to play, and whether you want the on-demand menu item enabled.

02

Send us the playlist URL

The playlist URL, plus your time-of-day and duration preferences. No credentials needed — we only need the link.
