Hivestack integration

What is Hivestack?


  • Hivestack is the first purpose-built, full stack programmatic digital out of home platform that offers a more intelligent, targerable, measurable and impactful way to reach precise audiences outside the home.
  • Navori's support for Hivestack programmatic DooH content means users can now deliver fully automated ads to their QL-powered screens using a few mouse clicks.

Navori pre-requisites


  • QL Server and QLPlayer version 2.7.4 or more recent.
  • Players must have the Advertising Module Add-On. If your players don't have this add-on, you will need to purchase it before you can display Hivestack ads in QL.
  • Your QL Player Serial Number must be sent to Hivestack (this is optional, in fact the owner of the Hivestack account can enter this information directly). This is required so we can match the ScreenId with the  Serial Number.
  • In the QL Player technical profile there is a new field under the ADVERTISING heading labelled Hivestack. This is where you enter the Hivestack Private Share Key that the the Hivestack account owner must generate and use for all the players which will be connecting to the Hivestack library.
