Get started with Announcer Apps
Product Overview
The Announcer app (available for Confluence, Jira, and Bitbucket Server) allows the Administrator of an Atlassian product to configure announcements for their registered end-users to communicate critical information. Once announcements are configured, logged-in users are required to acknowledge any configured messages prior to using the system. Unique users are only required to acknowledge each message once.
Several announcement styles are supported, including banner, flag, dialog and full page. An announcement can be configured to display only on specific dates or until disabled.
Administrators can opt to delegate announcement creation capability to Confluence Space Administrators and/or Jira Project Administrators so that space-specific or project-specific announcements can be created.
Announcer provides a perfect way to communicate downtime, updates to the Terms of Service, new or deprecated functionality, and much more to your entire user base.
This app has been completely refactored for improved performance and is better than ever! We welcome your feedback.
