Quick Start Guide

1. Setup in Lightning App Builder

To add the carousel to your page:

Navigate to the Lightning App Builder for your designated Home Page.
Locate the Component: In the left-hand menu, under Custom - Managed, find carouselbanner.
Placement: Drag and drop the component onto your page layout.
Configuration: On the right-hand panel, set the following:
- Number of Items Per Page: Define how many banners are visible at once (e.g., 3).
- Name of App: Enter the exact API name of the app where this should appear (e.g., Service_Console).
Visibility: Use the Set Component Visibility section to add filters if you only want specific users or profiles to see the banner.

Content is managed via Custom Metadata Types. This allows you to update the carousel without editing the page layout.

Click New or Edit on a record to configure the following fields:

Section	Field	Description
General	Label / Name	Internal identification for the record.
	Display Order	The numerical sequence in which the banner appears.
	App Name Filter	Ensures the item only shows in specific apps (e.g., Service Console).
Header	Image	The URL for the banner's background image.
Body	Title	The main heading displayed on the banner.
	Body Content	A brief description or announcement text.
	YouTubeEmbedURL	(Optional) Link to embed a video directly.
Footer	Button Label / Link	Define the text and destination for up to two action buttons.

Keep it Current: Use the Deactivated checkbox in the metadata record to hide seasonal or expired announcements without deleting the data.
Monitor Layout: Ensure your images have consistent aspect ratios for a professional look.
Test Visibility: Always verify that the App Name Filter in the metadata matches the Name of App in the App Builder to ensure content displays correctly.
