Creating a Broadcast: Building a Broadcast

"Creating a Broadcast" is the process of crafting a message or content that you want to send to your team. It's like composing an email or writing a post, where you choose a title, decide what kind of content you want to include, and specify who should receive it. You can also preview how it will look on mobile, save it for later, share it with others for input, or simply discard it if you change your mind. This is a basic but essential step in managing communication, especially when you have important information to share with a specific audience.

Depending on the type of communication, the Team Admin or Global User has a number of Broadcasts cards at the bottom of the screen. There are a number of different types and further documentation on each can be viewed at the below links:

Steps to Create a Broadcast:

1. Click the Quick Link to "Create broadcast" on the Home Page.

2. Alternatively, access "Broadcasts" in your Admin menu.

3. From the Reporting Page, click "Create" for a new broadcast.

4. Once in the "Create" screen, Add a title and choose a category.

5. If you want to preview your broadcast on the mobile app, click "Send Preview." This allows you to view how your broadcast will appear on mobile.

6. To share the draft you're working on, click the share icon. You can share broadcasts with Global, Team, and Broadcast Admins. Note that for Team and Broadcast Admins, you need to be part of the same team to share the broadcast with them.

7. Click the icon to save your broadcast. All "Saved" broadcasts will be stored in your Drafts section. If your broadcast has any errors, you won't be able to share or save it until those errors are fixed.

8. If you decide not to save the changes and want to leave the broadcast without saving it, click "Discard changes."

9. To add content to your broadcast, click "Add content." This will bring up the Card display. Please note that stacks are limited to a maximum of 30 cards.

10. From the Card display, select the card or cards you'd like to add to your broadcast.

11. If you want to duplicate the card you're working on, click the "Copy" icon. To delete the current card, click the "Delete" icon.

12. After you've added content, click "Continue" to move on to "Define audience" using the Audience Builder.
