Creating actions in the schedule (console)

To create an action

1. Read the information about planning the actions you want to add.

2. Open the MediaLive console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/medialive/.

3. In the navigation pane, choose Channel, and then choose the channel that you want to work with.

4. On the Details pane, choose the Schedule tab.

5. Choose the Switch button to display the view that you want: List view or Timeline view. For information about the layout and color coding of the timeline view, see Viewing the schedule (console).

6. For List view, choose the appropriate action:

   • To create a fixed, follow, or immediate action from scratch, choose Create.

   • To create a follow action after an existing action, choose that action, choose Schedule actions, and then choose Create follow actions from.

     This method displays the Create schedule action page with some fields already completed, so you can quickly create a follow switch for that existing action.

7. For Timeline view, choose the appropriate action:

   • To create a fixed, follow, or immediate action from scratch, choose Create.

   • To create a follow action, find the input switch that you want to follow, and then choose Create follow action in that card.

     This method displays the Create schedule action page with some fields already completed, so you can quickly create a follow switch for that existing action.

8. On the Create schedule action page, complete the fields. For information about completing the fields, see the following topics.

9. When you have finished, choose Create.

   MediaLive adds the action to the list or the timeline at its appropriate time slot.
