Samsung's MagicInfo is a content management system for digital info screens (digital signage). Through the integration with the Allthings platform, pinboard posts can be automatically displayed on the screens connected to MagicInfo in your property.
This ensures effective communication with residents – right where the screens are located.
How it works
As soon as a pinboard post is published in the Communication Center and activated for screen display, Allthings automatically transmits the post to the assigned MagicInfo screens. Edits or deletion of the post are also updated automatically.
Functions at a glance:
- Automatic transmission of published pinboard posts to the connected screens
- Display during the period defined in the post
- Automatic update when the post is edited, unpublished, or deleted
- Control of visibility per building via the assigned screen groups
Information for residents

Displaying pinboard posts on screens
When creating a new post in the Communication Center (Allthings Cockpit), you can specify whether it should also be displayed on the assigned MagicInfo screens.
Here's how to proceed:
- Open the Allthings Cockpit
- Go to the Communication Center
- Create a new pinboard post
- Activate the option "Display on screen"
- Select the display period
- Assign a title for the post
- Publish the post
→ After publishing, the post is automatically transmitted to and displayed on the assigned MagicInfo screens. If you later edit or unpublish the post, the display on the screen is updated or hidden automatically.
Note: Only the plain text of the post is transferred – formatting (bold, italic, lists, links) and images are not shown on the screen. As MagicInfo does not support time-of-day windows, the post is displayed all day throughout the selected period.
