description: ScreenCloud is a cloud digital signage platform that turns any screen into a managed display for content, dashboards,
  and apps. Its developer surface is the ScreenCloud Studio API - a single public GraphQL endpoint (bearer-token authenticated,
  region-specific, copied from the DEVELOPER tab in Studio) that lets you automate anything you can do in Studio by hand -
  pairing and managing screens, building playlists and channels, uploading media and files, casting content, installing and
  configuring signage apps, and exporting playback logs and QR metrics. ScreenCloud also runs a Developer Platform / App framework
  for building custom HTML/JavaScript signage apps that can be published (with approval) to the App Store. There is no documented
  public WebSocket API - the Studio API is request/response GraphQL over HTTPS.
