How do I post a news announcement?

Open News, start a new story, add your text and any media, and publish to the audience you choose.

Steps

1. Open News and click New story.
2. Write your announcement — add images or video if it helps tell the story.
3. Choose the audience: your whole workspace, or a specific group.
4. Publish. It appears in News for everyone in that audience, and they can react or comment on it.

Tips

• News stories stay easy to find later, unlike an announcement made in a busy channel that scrolls out of view within a day.
• Use a clear headline as the first line — it's what people scan when browsing News.
• See News vs. chat if you're deciding whether something belongs here or in a channel.
