Google Maps

You can embed the map into your Play Digital Signage content the same way you embed a website: with the help of our Website Plugin.

• Go to Google Maps
• Find the address (Map) you'd like to use in your content.
• Click Share -> Embed a map
• Copy the URL (Only the part that is highlighted in the example below).

<iframe src="https://www.google.com/maps/embed ..... " width="600" height="450" style="border:0;" allowfullscreen="" loading="lazy" referrerpolicy="no-referrer-when-downgrade"></iframe>

• Open your playlist in my.playsignage.com, add the Website plugin, and paste your URL into the Website address.

How do I embed live traffic?

If you wish to display live traffic, we recommend using Waze live map as it integrates better than Google’s live map.

1. Navigate to https://www.waze.com/livemap and move to the map area you want to display
2. Click the “share” button at the bottom right
3. Select the “Embed a map” tab
4. Copy only the address inside “src” property (as you would in the Google Maps example above)
