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.

fschuster,

It seems that the "Megaphone" didn't make the Jakarta release. Are you aware if there is any future roadmap for it?

Hi Matt,

That is correct, it's indeed not included in Jakarta.

I checked back with PM and it appears that this feature was reprioritized to a lower priority compared to other features on the roadmap.

Right now, there are no plans to invest further in Megaphone, to turn it into a customer usable product. That's not to say we never will, but it's not a priority at this time.

There is another option, which can be used for broadcasting or direct messaging in ServiceNow: buzzPost - 30 seconds preview - YouTube

If I just use the normal 'Message' box where does the broadcast show please? I have added the dates and times and put the 'Any roled user' 'At login' and the 'Logged in' as true and my message is not showing....

Please note I am using this in the dev environment. 

Thanks,

Lisa

Hi Christian,

Can this functionality be useful if the user doesn't have any role?

Means can the broadcast message be visible to the user with/ without role.

Kindly acknowledge.

Thanks
