Korbyt Anywhere Release Recap - 11.06.26

We’re constantly working to improve Korbyt. Here’s what we were up to:

🚀 New & Enhanced

  • Screen Detective Issue and Action Reports: See which issues were detected and what recovery actions were taken.

  • Screen Detective Detection Exclusions: Exclude specific player groups from frozen and blank screen detection. This helps for screens that are meant to show static or dark content.

  • Screen Detective Suppression Windows: Set global detection and alert suppression windows so planned downtime doesn’t create noise.

  • Screen Detective Action Statuses: App restarts and OS reboots now show as separate statuses, so you can see exactly which recovery step ran.

  • Screen Detective Inactive Status: Inactive players are now labeled as Inactive in Screen Detective.

  • Screen Detective Issue History: Each issue’s history now starts with an “Issue Detected” entry and includes reason detail for each step.

  • Screen Detective Filters: Filter all issues by the last 60 or 90 days. The dashboard now defaults to Today and remembers your selection.

  • Screen Detective Frozen Detection: Frozen content detection is more accurate on layouts that include clock elements.

  • Dashboard Improvements: Device Insights and User Insights cards use a denser layout. The dashboard and Investigate view also got visual polish.

  • Playlist Content Report: Generate a report of the content in your playlists.

  • Power BI Slicers: The Power BI element now supports reports that use slicers.

  • Korbyt Capture Cookie Persistence: A new option keeps cookies between script runs, so captured sites stay signed in.

  • Player Notification Emails: Notification emails now include more player details, so you can find affected screens faster.

  • Tag Administration: With Tag Administration enabled, you can let specific roles create freeform tags.

  • Clever Rules: Value dropdowns now show both lookup values and values already in use.

  • Google Integration: Korbyt’s Google integration now runs through an approved Google app, which removes authentication warnings on the Google Slides element.

  • SSO Certificate Auto-Refresh: SSO certificates now refresh automatically, so expiring certificates are less likely to interrupt sign-in.
