Broadcast Message to all users

[Steven Young]

So i have seen this asked many times on the Community and there does not seem to be an answer.

**WE ARE ON GENEVA RELEASE**

UNTIL NOW.

There is a table that is not advertised in ServiceNow anywhere that i can find.   There is no wiki about it, and there is no known discussion on the community about it that i could find.

Well DING DING DING... ServiceNow Devs do it again.

Broadcast Message:   sys_broadcast_message   table.

There is nothing in the filter navigator about it,   so you'll have to create something for it to be in your Navigator List.

I have customized my form a lot.   the basic form is just that:   Basic:

The message seems like it's Full HTML coding   and it is displayed like so:   Just the red box.   I have customized it to be the blue header in the center and spaced out.

But so far it's pretty awesome.   I wanted to post about it because there have been so many questions about it without an answer to this point.

Ricardo,

The screenshot shows a Portal page built in Service Portal, which is available starting with Helsinki. I don't know how the backend/table structure looks like for those Announcements, but it would be fairly easy to create an Announcement table, that you could leverage to push Notifications/Announcements to your Portal.

As a matter of fact I have already done that and I plan to share the Solution shortly, hopefully by the end of the year.

Hi Altamish,

Wasn't able to complete this over the holidays, but I have a working version. Will have to refine it a little and then upload it to Share, should be no longer than 1-2 weeks until it's on Share.

Cheers!

Yikes.. and almost another month later, I still didn't publish it yet *ehem*.

I'll refrain from committing yet another date, but the only thing I have to do is cleanup the visual layer of that widget, everything else is ready. You can expect it very soon.
