Setting Up CCLI Auto-Reporting with SongSelect

MediaShout 7 now integrates with the SongSelect API to automatically report your worship music to CCLI. This guide walks you through connecting SongSelect and enabling auto-reporting.

Part 1: Connect SongSelect

1. Install the Latest MediaShout 7 Update

Download and install the latest version from www.mediashout.com/download.

2. Open the Lyrics Window

In MediaShout 7, go to Insert → Lyrics to open the Lyrics window.

3. Switch to SongSelect Service

On the left side, change the Select Library dropdown from My Library to SongSelect Service.

4. Log In to SongSelect

A web browser will open. Enter your SongSelect credentials and log in.

5. Copy Your Authorization Code

You'll see a page with an authorization code. Highlight the code, right-click, and select Copy.

6. Paste the Code in MediaShout

Return to MediaShout 7 and paste the code into the authorization field.

7. Click Confirm

Click Confirm to complete the connection.

You'll return to the Lyrics window with SongSelect Service now active. You can now search for songs and build your MediaShout library directly from SongSelect.

Part 2: Enable Auto-Reporting

1. Open Library Settings

In MediaShout 7, go to Settings → Library.

2. Add Your Church's CCLI Number

Enter your church's CCLI number on this page.

3. Enable Logging and Auto-Reporting

Turn ON both of the following:

• Enable logging of cue activity
• Enable Auto-Reporting to CCLI

4. Set Your Service Schedule

Configure a Service Schedule that reflects the days and times your church holds worship services. This tells MediaShout when to send reports to CCLI.

Important: Prepare Your Song Library

Make sure each song in your library has the proper CCLI ID associated with it. Auto-Reporting will only log songs with valid CCLI IDs—it automatically skips public domain songs and songs without IDs.

You're All Set

Auto-Reporting is now active. MediaShout will automatically send your worship song data to CCLI based on your service schedule—no manual work required.
