Different Types of Announcements (Confluence)
The announcement type has little to do with how the announcement looks, and more specifically, determines the 'scope' of the announcement. By which, we mean, 'who' can see the announcement.
Type | Description |
|---|---|
Global | Global Announcements are shown to all authenticated Confluence users on all Confluence pages and blogs. Anonymous users, not authenticated to your Confluence instance will not see Global announcements. |
Public | Public Announcements are only shown to anonymous users that have not authenticated to your Confluence instance. This type is also shown on all Confluence pages and blogs. Logged in users will not see this type of announcement. |
Space | For these announcements, you select which Confluence space you wish to make your announcement appear in. Space announcements appear on Confluence screens only. |
