Information - Articles, News & Events
Use Articles & News to publish internal news and updates, and Events to share company events. You can segment both by group and, for articles, publish now or schedule a later date.
What are Articles and Events used for?
Articles & News lets you keep employees up to date with announcements, updates and other important information.
Events lets you share company events, with their dates and details, so employees can find them in the app.
You can target both articles and events to specific user groups, so each piece of information reaches the right people.
How do I create an article?
Go to Information > Articles & News and select Add Article. The Create a new Article window opens.
If your platform has more than one language, use the language tabs at the top of the form to fill in each language.
Optionally upload an Article Banner Image with a 3:1 ratio (for example 900x300 or 1200x400 pixels).
Fill in Article Title, Article Description and Article Content. All three are required in the default language. The content editor accepts text, links, formatting and multimedia.
Under General, set the Publish Date (required). Choose a future date and time if you want to schedule the article.
Optionally choose an Article Category, tick Mark as Featured (stick to top), or tick Only display Article Content to hide the article header (image, title, description and likes).
If you see Groups Segmentation, select the groups that should see the article.
Select Create.
The article is saved with the status Building and is not visible to users yet. To make it visible, open it and select Publish, or Schedule Publication if its publish date is in the future. See Articles and News: detail and content/presentation pages for all fields and actions.
How do I create an event?
Go to Information > Events. The list shows your events with their start and end dates.
Select Add Event to open Create a new Event.
Fill in the Event title and Content (both required). The content editor accepts text, images and links.
Optionally set the Start Date and End Date.
Optionally use Content Segmentation to show the event only to specific groups.
Select Create.
In the app, the events list does not show past events.
