Announcements and Notifications Overview
The Announcements and Notification feature provides ways to communicate information to users on the platform. Notifications can be adjusted for receipt of relevant updates through channels a user prefers. Announcements are communicated in three ways:
- Notices are used to provide important information to users.
- Alerts are used to provide urgent information to users.
- Emergency Announcements are used to provide urgent emergency information to users.
