Steps
Generate a named API token scoped to a specific role (content-only vs full admin) and optionally a specific workspace
Authenticate REST calls with the token via the Authorization header against the endpoints documented at app.yodeck.com/api-docs
Create each new screen/monitor resource in a loop, associating it with the correct workspace/location
Assign a default playlist/layout to each newly created screen so it has content the moment it's claimed
Poll each screen resource's online/offline status and last-reported screenshot to confirm pairing before rolling out the next batch
Use the reboot/shutdown remote-command endpoints if newly provisioned players need a forced restart to pick up their assignment
Known gotchas
The REST API is gated to Premium/Enterprise plans — accounts below that tier get authorization errors even with a well-formed token
Screenshots are captured at a plan-determined interval, not on demand, so polling immediately after provisioning can return a stale or null screenshot rather than proof of live content
Role-scoped tokens fail silently with plain 403s on out-of-scope endpoints, so bulk-provisioning scripts must check response codes per call rather than assuming success
