Creating a News Item from a Workspace

 

The News application allows workspace members to send News items to other members of their team. News items are messages that might be of interest to a number of users and can be used to facilitate communication between team members.

The workspace-level News application displays News items specific to the current workspace. If you have adequate permissions you can add an News item to a workspace from the workspace News application.

To create a news item from a workspace:

  1. Navigate to the workspace for which you want to add an issue

    Note:
    The initial view you see is defined by your administrator. You may be able to customize the view if you have adequate permissions. For more information, see Customizing Application Views.
