GXP has two types of Outlets available for your guests. It's important to note you cannot cross over Outlet types, so if you create an Order Outlet you can only attach Product Items to the Order Outlet as this utilises the Cart.For Service Outlets it only accept Service Request Items. You can add Information or Direct Content Items to each Outlet type, but you cannot crossover the Product and Service Item types.

To start first create the Outlet Content Section. To do this:


  1. Navigate to your Property in GXP, and go to Content Management > Sections.
  2. At the top click on + Add New Section
  3. Provide an Internal Name and Display Name

  5. Set the Type as Outlet Content
  6. Choose either Order or Service in the Outlet Type dropdown

  8. Scroll to the bottom and click on + Add Outlet and choose your Outlet(s)


On Saving, this will now display your Outlet Content Section in the Side Menu and sits alongside the Standard, External, or Web Section types. For the Outlets to work in iRiS Guest, Interactive Sections need to be created, and they will automatically pair with the Outlet Section you've created when you chose the Outlet. To start:


  1. Navigate to your Property in GXP, and go to Content Management > Sections.
