Broadcast messages

Use the 8x8 Contact Center broadcast feature to send  messages to one or more agent functional groups. This feature allows the administrator to mass-communicate a message to the agents using 8x8 Configuration Manager.

To  broadcast a message:

1. From the Configuration Menu, click Broadcast.

2. For Group, select a group or All Groups from the list.

3. For Alert Level, select low, medium, high, or pop-up.

4. For Only send to logged-in agents, choose whether you want to send the message to the agents who are logged in or to all agents.

5. For Message, type what you like to broadcast to agents.

6. Click Broadcast to send the message.
   The following table describes the options under Broadcast:

   Broadcast Option	Description
