Send system messages

Use system messages to let users know about scheduled downtimes or newly applied updates. These messages alert all users in your organizations every time they log in to Contrast. Alerts remain active until your chosen expiration date.

To create a new system message:

  1. In system settings, select System messages from the left navigation.

  2. Select Create a message.

  3. Set an expiration date and time, and enter the message text.

  4. The message will display until you delete it (by selecting Delete here) or it reaches expiration. Users must manually acknowledge system messages before they can continue with their tasks.

Tip

You can also create custom notifications for one or more users when a specific condition is observed in Contrast.
