Announcements

Open Announcements → Announcements to see every announcement, grouped by collection.

Status filter pills at the top: All · Draft · Live · Scheduled · Archived.

Anatomy

Each announcement row shows:

• Title (with optional badge — e.g. "New", "AI", "Info", "SDK")
• Layout: Banner, Toast, Modal, or Slideout
• Audience (e.g. "All users", or a segment)
• Status (Draft / Live / Scheduled / Archived)
• Impressions count

Status lifecycle

draft → scheduled → live → paused → archived

• Draft — not visible anywhere
• Scheduled — hidden until the scheduled time, then auto-flipped to live
• Live — visible per your audience and display rules
• Paused — hidden but not archived; re-publish later
• Archived — removed from feeds. Permalink still works.

Collections

Group related announcements into collections. Each collection has a name and badge (e.g. "First Collection" → custom badge, "Release Notes" → release badge).

Click + New Collection to add one.

Creating an announcement

Click + New Announcement. The builder lets you set:

• Title and body (rich text)
• Badge / category
• Cover image (optional)
• Layout — Banner / Toast / Modal / Slideout
• Collection
• Audience (all users or a segment)
• Display rules — frequency, URL targeting, device

Sharing

Each announcement has a permalink. Drop it in email or a share menu:

https://changelog.yourcompany.com/announcements/release-2-4-0

Or open in-app via the SDK:

Chirp.announcement.open("release_2_4_0");

Notify requesters

When the announcement is linked to a feedback post or backlog item, the builder shows a Notify requesters toggle at publish time. Turn it on to send a one-time email to every user who originally asked for that feature, letting them know it shipped.
