How to Add a Link to an Announcement or Notification

You can add a link to an announcement or notification in Onespot. Sending a link lets you share important resources, like help articles, forms, or updates, directly with your team members or parents. It's a great way to make sure they don't miss important information.

Note: Only users with the proper permissions (e.g., school admins) can send notifications. If you're unable to send one, please check with your admin team.

Where to Find This

There are two ways to access the Send Notification screen:

1. Via the Chat icon (watch the video below)
2. Via Administrative Superpowers: From the Administrative Superpowers screen → Communication → Send Notification (see steps below)

Steps to Send a Notification with a Link

1. From the Administrative Superpowers screen → Communication → Send Notification

   Input the Message title and Message content (if there is any).

   Click "Add Link" to insert the link you want to send.

   Below, you can:

   • Choose recipients (limit to specific team members or groups),
   • Allow or disallow replies,
   • Change the delivery method (email, push notification, etc.)
   • Schedule the notification for a specific time.
2. Scroll down and click Send.

✅ Once sent, your selected team members or parents will receive a notification with the link you provided. When they click the notification, they’ll be directed to the resource you shared.
