Your Salesforce admin must first enable and set up the broadcast communication types.
You can use a broadcast alert to notify team members when an incident occurs so that they can take direct action. A broadcast alert uses a defined template that you can’t modify.
Use Slack messages to streamline reporting of ongoing incidents. The message autofills based on the incident’s field values.
You can use broadcast emails to inform customers of ongoing incidents and keep them up to date as the incident evolves.
A broadcast site banner proactively warns customers of incidents and helps deflect new cases related to the incident.
