News items are ideal for sharing brief updates and reminders, which are published to the newsfeed on the homescreen. This is a convenient way to keep users informed about what’s happening. The content is automatically formatted, ensuring a consistent look for your posts. With your content ready, you can share quickly and easily.

Examples

News items are appropriate for communicating temporary, time-sensitive information, such as:

  • Announcement about a new Challenge
  • Reminders about events or special days
  • Social media updates
  • Notices about system updates
  • Calls to action

Types

Choose from different types of formatting:

  • Regular: This has no special formatting.
  • Warning: Text appears in a yellow text box.
  • Tweet: Text appears with the Twitter logo.
  • LinkedIn: Text appears with the LinkedIn logo.

Homescreen view

News items are automatically published to the second section of the Notices newsfeed. You can share an unlimited number, which are listed in reverse-chronological order.
