Searching for Campaigns
The CMS includes several options for searching and/or filtering Campaigns.
Search Bar
Use the search bar to filter Campaigns by name.
Filters
It is possible to filter your search for Campaigns in several fields:
Main Campaign Content - A dropdown menu allowing the user to filter campaigns by the Content Item that is tied to them. It is also possible to search for the Content Item by name in the dropdown menu.
Main Campaign Content Set - A dropdown menu allowing the user to filter campaigns by the Content Set that is tied to them. It is also possible to search for the Content Set by name in the dropdown menu.
Campaign Group - A dropdown menu allowing the user to filter campaigns by the Campaign Group it belongs to. It is also possible to search for the Content Set by name in the dropdown menu.
Status - A dropdown menu allowing the user to filter campaigns by status. The filter is set to "Active" by default.
Created by - A dropdown menu allowing the user to filter campaigns by the user that created them. It is also possible to type the name of the creator in the dropdown menu.
Start Date - Allows the user to filter the campaigns by range of dates.
Expiry Date - Allows the user to filter the campaigns by range of dates.
Archive - Allows the user to filter the campaigns by range of dates.
Filter By Marker
If you have a Sodyo marker but don't know any identifying details about its campaign, it's possible to filter your search by the marker's colors. Simply click the squares to choose the marker's colors.
Downloading a Sodyo Marker
The Sodyo CMS allows downloading a graphic file of the Sodyo marker that is assigned to the campaign that is optimized for digital platforms such as TV.
General
In the General tab of the Download Marker window, the user can choose the file format of the downloaded marker (either .png or .svg) and the resolution it will be displayed in. The size of the marker will be optimized to suit the chosen resolution.
Marker Shape
In the "Marker Shape" page, select the desired shape for the marker from the available selection.
Appearance
The Appearance tab shows a preview of the final image. By default the image does not include a caption. If a caption is desired, click the dropdown menu titled "Caption usage" and select "With caption", as seen in the example below.
The user can choose the size, font, color, and location of the caption. The dropdown titled "Caption position" allows the user to choose the caption's position relative to the marker. To edit the text, replace the text already present in the Text field. Both lines of text must be edited separately.
To download the final image, click the "Download" button at the bottom of the window.
Deleting campaigns
Step 1: Navigate to https://[organization-name].sodyo.com and sign in. Click the campaign module in the navigation menu. The campaign module is displayed.
Step 2: Click the delete button for the campaign you would like to delete. The delete confirmation dialog is displayed.

Show / Display a Campaign's Marker

Pausing / Enabling a campaign
Once a campaign is created, it is automatically published and is live (enabled). This means that when a user scans the Sodyo tag assigned to the campaign, its content will be delivered to the user. There may be a need to temporarily not deliver the associated content to users. To do this, it is possible to disable the campaign and enable it when resumed.
Step 1: Navigate to https://[organization-name].sodyo.com and sign in. Click the campaigns module in the navigation menu. The campaigns module is displayed.
When a tag associated with a suspended campaign is scanned, no content is delivered to the user.
