# Make an announcement
|
||||
|
||||
An announcement on Zulip is a message which will reach
|
||||
all users in an organization.
|
||||
|
||||
## The #announce stream
|
||||
|
||||
The #announce stream is just like other streams in most ways, but it's
|
||||
conventionally used for organization-wide announcements.
|
||||
|
||||
![Example message](/static/images/help/announce-message.png)
|
||||
|
||||
By default, everybody is subscribed to this stream. For this reason,
|
||||
you'll want to keep the traffic on it low, so that people don't mute
|
||||
it and miss an important announcement.
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, Zulip's notification bot uses this stream for its
|
||||
messages.
|
||||
|
||||
## Send an announcement
|
||||
|
||||
1. To send an announcement, click the **New stream message**
|
||||
button located at the bottom of your screen.
|
||||
A box similar to the one shown in the below image will appear.
|
||||
|
||||
![New stream message](/static/images/help/new-stream.png)
|
||||
|
||||
3. In the **Stream** field, input `announce` to select the `#announce` stream.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Enter the topic for your announcement in the **Topic** field.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! tip ""
|
||||
Your topic name cannot be longer than 52 characters.
|
||||
|
||||
5. Enter your announcement in **Compose your message here...**
|
||||
(also known as the compose box).
|
||||
|
||||
!!! tip ""
|
||||
You can type `@**all**` to mention everyone subscribed to the stream you
|
||||
send the message to.
|
||||
|
||||
6. Finally, you can now send your announcement by
|
||||
clicking the **Send** button or by pressing the enter key
|
||||
(if you have checked the option **Press Enter to send**).
|
||||
|
||||
!!! tip ""
|
||||
You can always cancel your message by clicking the x (<i
|
||||
class="icon-vector-remove"></i>) icon located at the top right corner of
|
||||
your compose box or pressing the `Esc` key.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
!!! warn ""
|
||||
**Note:** By default all users are subscribed to the `#announce` stream,
|
||||
but users can unsubscribe from and mute the stream. This means that
|
||||
announcements, although organization-wide, will not reach users who
|
||||
have muted or unsubscribed from the `#announce` stream.

# Notify everyone on a stream
|
||||
|
||||
You can notify everyone on a stream with the `@**all**` mention.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! warn ""
|
||||
**Note:** This will not notify anyone who has muted the stream.
