Information Overlay

Tip

If you use a reverse proxy or expose Immich you can set immich_external_url so the links/QR code links to that

You can access additional image information in two ways:

• Click the "i" icon on the screen
• Press the "i" key on your keyboard

The overlay includes:

• A direct link to view the image in Immich
• A QR code for quick mobile access
• A button to trigger the user.webhook.trigger.info_overlay webhook event (if enabled)

You can customize the overlay using these configuration options:

• show_more_info: Controls the entire overlay visibility
• show_more_info_image_link: Toggles the direct image link
• show_more_info_qr_code: Toggles the QR code display

Redirects

A feature that lets you create simple, memorable URLs that point to longer, more complex ones. Configure them in config.yaml under kiosk.redirects with three key components:

• name: Your short, friendly URL
• url: The full destination URL
• type: Choose internal to preserve browser history or external for standard redirects

Webhooks

Kiosk can integrate with external services through webhook notifications. When configured, Kiosk automatically sends HTTP POST requests to your specified URLs whenever important events occur, enabling real-time communication with other systems and services.
