FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI delete existing playlists?

    No. The agent only has tools to create and assign playlists, not to delete them.

  • 02

    Will the AI change my screen hardware settings?

    No. The agent only manages playlists and group assignments; it cannot touch hardware or system configurations.

  • 03

    Does the AI need me to manually select the screens?

    No, as long as you name the group in your prompt, the agent will find it and target it for you.

  • 04

    Can I see which groups exist before I deploy?

    Yes. You can ask the agent to list your groups first to verify the names.

  • 05

    Does the AI handle the actual video file uploads?

    No. The agent manages the playlists and assignments within FusionSignage, but it does not upload raw media files.
