Organize locations with branches

Branches give you a way to organize your Piksel account around real-world locations — a store, an office floor, a franchise site, or any other unit that makes sense for your business. Once you assign screens, media files, and playlists to a branch, you can filter the dashboard to show only that branch’s content and grant team members access to specific branches only.

Create a branch

Open the Branches section

From the Piksel dashboard sidebar, click Branches. You’ll see a list of all branches you’ve already created.

Click Add branch

Click the Add branch button to open the branch creation form.

Fill in the branch details

Complete the fields for the new branch:

Field	Required	Description
Name	Yes	A short label for this location (e.g., “Downtown Store”).
Address	No	Street address of the location.
City	No	City where this branch is located.
Notes	No	Any additional notes about this branch (e.g., operating hours, contact info).

Save the branch

Click Save. The branch appears in your branch list and is immediately available to assign to screens, media, and playlists.

Assign content to a branch

You can associate screens, media files, and playlists with a branch individually. Open any screen, media item, or playlist and select the branch from the Branch dropdown in its settings. The dashboard will then include that item when you filter by that branch.

Assign a branch when you first upload a media file or create a playlist to keep your library organized from the start.

Filter the dashboard by branch

Use the branch filter at the top of the Screens, Media, and Playlists sections to narrow the view to a single location. Filtering does not affect what content plays — it only changes what you see in the dashboard.

Edit a branch

Find the branch

Go to Branches and locate the branch you want to update.

Open branch settings

Click the branch name or the edit icon to open its settings.

Update the fields and save

Change any of the name, address, city, or notes fields, then click Save.

Delete a branch

Deleting a branch unassigns all screens, media files, and playlists that were linked to it. The items themselves are not deleted — they remain in your account without a branch assignment. This action cannot be undone.

To delete a branch, open the branch settings and click Delete branch. Piksel will:

Remove the branch assignment from every screen linked to it.
Remove the branch assignment from every media file linked to it.
Remove the branch assignment from every playlist linked to it.
Delete the branch record.

After deletion, the previously linked items appear in the dashboard as unassigned. You can reassign them to a different branch at any time.
