Cloud Dashboard Overview
When you log into cloud.fotomaster.com, you're greeted by the Cloud Dashboard -- your central hub for managing events, AI features, galleries, assets, and connected devices. This article walks you through everything you'll find on the dashboard and how to get started quickly.
Main Dashboard View
The dashboard gives you an at-a-glance summary of your account activity:
- Active Events -- A count of currently running or upcoming events, with quick links to each one.
- Recent Sessions -- The latest photo sessions from your connected booths, updated in real time.
- AI Credit Balance -- Your remaining AI credits are displayed prominently so you always know where you stand.
- Connected Devices -- The number of booths currently online and connected to your Cloud account.
- Quick Stats -- Key metrics such as total photos taken, shares sent, and gallery views.
Navigation Menu
The left-hand navigation menu provides access to every section of the platform:
- Events -- Create, manage, and monitor all your events. View active, upcoming, and past events in one place.
- Presets -- Browse, load, and manage saved presets (workflow + layout configurations) that you can assign to events.
- Assets -- Upload and organize your creative assets, including overlays, backgrounds, animations, layouts, and logos.
- Analytics -- View reports on cloud-synced media, shares, AI credit usage, email and SMS delivery, surveys, FMPrint activity, and more.
- Settings -- Manage your account preferences, company information, branding, integrations, and notification settings.
- Licenses -- View and manage your software licenses across all devices, including assignment and renewal status.
Quick Actions
The dashboard includes quick-action buttons so you can jump straight into common tasks:
Create Event
Click Create Event to set up a new event in just a few steps. You'll be guided through naming your event, setting the date and time, assigning a preset, and configuring sharing and gallery options.

Upload Assets
Click Upload Assets to add new overlays, backgrounds, layouts, or other creative files to your Cloud library. Once uploaded, assets are available across all your events and connected devices.

Click View Galleries to browse all your online galleries. From here, you can preview galleries, copy shareable links, generate QR codes, and manage gallery settings.
Tip: Online galleries are available on Basic and Pro plans. See Online Galleries Overview to learn more.
Account Summary Bar
At the top of the dashboard, you'll find a summary bar showing:
- Current Plan -- Your active subscription tier (Basic or Pro) with a link to manage your plan.
- AI Credits -- Your available credit balance with a quick link to purchase more.
- Notifications -- Alerts for license renewals, low credit balances, and system updates.
