Broadcast Messages
Select System Configuration > Broadcast Messages.
Use the Broadcast Messages page to post messages to your users. For example, a broadcast message is a good way to notify users about times when FME Flow will be unavailable due to system maintenance. Messages appear in a banner at the top of the Home page.
You can also view a history of broadcast messages, including those that originate from Safe Software.
