Keep the corporate audience informed
Pin news on every intranet page
Our feature can help you give voice to the most important news at a specific time of day or week. Examples could include creating a new area on the intranet or changing the cafeteria's hours. News can be pinned at the top of SharePoint site pages to attract users' attention and ensure maximum reception.
Simple configuration
Target service communications to the right audience
Not every alert is for everyone. When you create a Corporate Message, you can assign it to destination groups built from the Security Groups in your Azure AD (Entra ID), so a maintenance notice or a policy change reaches only the affected departments, sites, or roles. Leave the field blank to broadcast company-wide. For multilingual organisations, activate the language field to publish localised versions of the same alert, each with its own language tag.
Schedule alerts and Teams notifications in advance
Plan communications around your business calendar instead of posting them by hand. A publish date schedules when the banner goes live, while the expiration date sets when it disappears from the intranet automatically. Until you tick the to-publish checkbox, the message stays a draft. A separate notification date controls when the Microsoft Teams push notification is sent, letting you announce on the intranet and ping Teams at different moments, or disable the notification entirely when it isn't needed.

Frequently asked questions
How do I target a company alert to specific departments or locations?
When creating a Corporate Message, you assign it to destination groups, which are Security Groups defined in your Azure AD (Entra ID). The alert is then shown only to members of those groups, letting you reach a single department, office, or role. If you leave the destination field blank, the message is sent to everyone across the intranet.
Can I schedule a company alert to appear and expire automatically?
Yes. The publish date field schedules when the alert banner becomes visible, and the expiration date sets when it is automatically removed from the intranet. The message is only published once the to-publish checkbox is selected, so you can prepare communications in advance and have them appear and disappear without manual intervention.
How are Microsoft Teams notifications sent for company alerts?
A dedicated notification date field triggers a push notification in the Microsoft Teams app. You can set it separately from the publish date to control exactly when colleagues are pinged, or flag the disable-notification option to publish a banner on the intranet without sending a Teams notification at all.
Can multiple company alerts be active at the same time?
No. You can publish only one alert at a time. When you publish a new Corporate Message, it replaces the previous one, ensuring colleagues always see the single most important service communication pinned across every page of the SharePoint intranet.
