You must register your application if you're using the Styled MediaReceiver or building a CustomReceiver. After you've registered your application,you'll receive an application ID, which is used by your sender applicationto perform API calls, such as to launch a Web Receiver application.

If you use the Default Media Receiver, youdo not have to register your application. The Default Media Receiver does notallow you to provide any styling to the media player UI, and uses a providedconstant as the application ID.

Also, you must register your Google Cast device so that it may access yourWeb Receiver application before you publish it. Once you publish your receiverapplication, it will be available to all Google Cast devices.

Applications

Registering your application allows you to test it against your registered Castdevice before you publish the application. Publishing the application makes itavailable to all Cast devices.

Register your application

You must register a Styled Media Receiver or aCustom Receiver to receive an application ID that'sused with API calls from the sender application.

To register your Cast application:

1. Sign in to theGoogle Cast SDK Developer Console.If you work for an organization, register using a genericteam email address rather than a personal or individual email address.The email address for a Google Cast Developer Account cannot bechanged once the account is created. Make sure you are signed intothe correct email address before continuing.
2. From either the Overview page or Applications page, clickAdd New Application.

3. Select the type of Web Receiver app you will use:

   • Custom Receiver

     Select this if your app requires user interface components or interactionpatterns that are not provided by the Styled Media Receiver. SelectingCustom Receiver may also be necessary if your content type is not listedas one of Styled Media Receiver's supported mediatypes.

     Be aware that this option requires that you build a complete web app forthe Web Receiver app.

     For details, read Custom Receiver Application.

   • Styled Media Receiver

     Select this if your app streams video or audio content using one of thesupported media types andyou'd like to provide a user interface on the TV that uses either thedefault media player UI or a set of custom styles on top of the defaultmedia player UI.

     The custom styles you may provide allow you to define the look for variouselements of the player UI (such as the splash screen and progress bar)simply by providing a CSS file—you do not need to build a receiverapp.

     For details, read Styled Media Receiver.

4. Fill in the details for your Web Receiver app:

   1. In the Name field, enter your app name.

      This is the application name as it appears when the Web Receiver is loadingor in the idle state if you are using the Styled Media Receiver.

The URL may be for anHTML page or other file type accessible from a web browser. It's okayfor your Web Receiver to be on an internal (NAT-registered) IPaddress, but not on localhost, as it is rarely a top level domain.Although the Web Receiver app must be served over SSL (HTTPS) whenpublished, the content loaded on the Web Receiver app may be servedover HTTP.

      • For a Styled Media Receiver, in the Skin URL field, specifythe URL for the style sheet.

        Provide an HTTPS URL that points to your CSS file located on yourown web site. To use the default styles, leave the field empty. Youcan always edit this later if you want to provide or update yourcustom styles.

Please see the Cast SDK support page.

Microsoft Collaborate program is offered through Partner Center and requires registration. If you already have an account in Partner Center, it is best to use the same account to enroll in Collaborate.

Important

You can use one of the following accounts to work in Partner Center:

• Microsoft Account (personal account)
• Azure AD (organizational account)

Only users with global administrator role can register using Azure AD account. If you do not have this role, you can try to find global administrator for your organization to help you register.

How to register as an individual

1. Navigate to the Partner Center Directory.

2. If you're not already signed, sign in now using existing account or create new Microsoft Account.

3. Scroll down to Developer programs section and click on Get Started link for Microsoft Collaborate.

4. The Get Started link will take you to the registration page.

   Note

   If you signed in with the existing Partner Center account, the page would contain information from that account. You can modify Publisher display name and Contact info if needed.

   Important

   The following error indicates that user is signed in with an Azure AD account that does not have administrator privileges and registration cannot be completed.

   We could not validate your identity as a global administrator.

   Try to find global administrator for your organization or sign out and sign in again using Microsoft Account.

5. Select the Account country/region in which you live, or where your business is located. You won't be able to change this later.

6. Select your Account type (individual or company). You won't be able to change this later, so be sure to choose the right type of account.

7. Enter the Publisher display name that you wish to use (50 characters or fewer). Select this carefully, as this name will be used when you interact with Collaborate (download content, submit feedback etc.). For company accounts, be sure to use your organization's registered business name or trade name. Note that if you enter a name that someone else has already selected, or if it appears that someone else has the rights to use that name, we will not allow you to use that name.

   Note

   Make sure you have the rights to use the name you enter here. If someone else has trademarked or copyrighted the name you picked, your account could be closed. If someone else is using a publisher display name for which you hold the trademark or other legal right, contact Microsoft.

8. Enter the contact info you want to use for your account.

   Note

   We'll use this info to contact you about account-related matters. For example, you'll receive an email confirmation message after you complete your registration.

   If you are registering as a company, you'll also need to enter the name, email address, and phone number of the person who will approve your company's account.

9. Review your account info and confirm that everything is correct. Then, read and accept the terms and conditions of the Collaborate Agreement. Check the box to indicate you have read and accepted these terms.

10. Click Finish to confirm your registration.

How to configure access for multiple users

Tip

Partner Center leverages Azure AD for multi-user account access and management. If your organization already uses Office 365 or other business services from Microsoft, you already have Azure AD. Otherwise, you can create a new Azure AD tenant from within Partner Center at no additional charge.

What happens when an Azure AD tenant is linked to a Partner Center account?

• Tenant ID is added to the account data
• Account Administrator gets the ability to view users of the Azure AD tenant and add them to the account
• Tenant Global Admin gets the ability to add new tenant users in Partner Center
• Tenant Global Admin gets the ability to invite guest users in Partner Center

No changes are made to the Azure AD tenant itself.

How to register as an organization

Before you begin

To create an account on Partner Center, you’ll need to have on hand the following information. You may want to take a few minutes to gather these items before you get started:

• Global administrator work email. If you're not sure what your company's work account is, see how to find global administrator.

• If your company doesn’t have a work account, you can create one during the account creation process.

• Your company’s legal business name, address, and primary contact. We need this information to confirm that your company has an established profile and that you are authorized to act on its behalf.

• Authority to sign legal agreements. Ensure that you are authorized to sign legal agreements on your company's behalf as you’ll be asked to do so during the enrollment process.

• Name and company email of the person you want to act as your primary contact.

Guidelines

When creating a company account, we suggest that you follow these guidelines, especially if more than one person needs to access the account.

• Create your Microsoft account using an email address that doesn't already belong to you or another individual, such as *MyCompany_PartnerCenter@outlook.com*. You may not be able to use an email address at your company's domain, especially if your company already uses Azure AD.
• If you plan to join Windows program for app development in future and want to reuse your partner center account, then it is recommended that you enroll to Windows program first and then join Collaborate. Otherwise you might have to create separate accounts for these programs.
• Add a company phone number that does not require an extension and is accessible to key team members.

Next steps

Navigate to the portal

1. Navigate to the Collaborate homepage: https://aka.ms/collaborate.
2. Sign in using Partner Center account credentials.
3. If your organization created multiple Azure AD tenants, select the one it uses for Collaborate. Click on badge icon on the right of the screen to view the list of available tenants.
