Add a carousel
Discover how to add a carousel to the Welcome screen of your app in the CapiraMobile Staff Dashboard.
You can choose to add one or more carousels for up to 20 pre-created collections from your library's catalog. For example, a carousel could be a collection of new releases, popular fiction titles or popular action movies.
Important notes about carousels:
- Carousels are created from an ILS record set code, which will differ depending on your ILS provider. Before adding a carousel, make sure you have created a record set in your ILS that contains the records you would like to feature.
- The process of creating a carousel differs depending on which ILS you are using. For configuration information that is specific to a variety of common ILS, see Using your ILS with CapiraMobile.
- You can choose one carousel at a time to feature on the Welcome screen of your app. For more information, see Welcome screen.

- From the left navigation, under the Elements menu, select Carousels.

- A Display Name, or the label users will see above the carousel of items.
