Let's practise! 💪
Firstly log in as a user with the Jira Administrators global permission.
The first thing to do when admin starting to use the application is to create the first feed (the set of announcements).
To do this, go to the Feed tab in the Top Menu and select from the list: Create feed.
| Recent Feeds | List of the five most recently created feeds |
| Create feed | Start the process of creating a feed |
| View all feeds | A view of all created feeds |
After clicking "Create feed" there will be new window (pop-up) in which the administrator can create a feed in four steps.
Step 1 - Feed Type
At this point you can specify:
- Type (Global or Project) - the feed should include all users or only those who have access to the selected project,
- System (Jira or Service Desk),
- Place - where they want to the feed appear (Top Bar, Dialog etc.)
Step 2 - Appearance
This part is responsible for:
- Feed name & description - name will be visible to users, and description only for administrators,
- Background & text colour - colors can distinguish announcements which will be included in this feed,
- Response buttons - buttons for users,
- Page size
Note: If the None button is selected, announcements will not collect feedback from users
Step 3 - Permissions
A very important part during creation, in which administrators determine:
- Audience - target group of recipients of announcements,
- Manage feed - users who will can manage this feed.
Step 4 - Feedback
The application allows to collect feedback from users.
Admins can control results of announcements.
At this place, users should be introduced who will be able to view the answers to the announcements.
Step 5 - Add content
This step concerns is for adding the announcement.
There is no need to create it right now - admins can add next and next announcements anytime they want.
