Types of newsflashes in Hoopla

Newsflashes help you celebrate important employee achievements as they happen or make on-the-fly announcements on your TV Channels.

We support different types of newsflashes:

• Metric Newsflash triggers off a Metric. It can recognize an individual User or a collective Team. You can even trigger Newsflashes for Generic Identifier Metrics when a particular metric value isn’t associated with one User or Team, but rather your whole company.

• Streaming Newsflash triggers off a Salesforce object. Specify the criteria that must be met, and Hoopla will track changes to the object. Click here to learn how.

• Slack Newsflash allows you and your team to make on-the-fly or scheduled announcements from within Slack. Learn how to configure a Slack Newsflash.

• Zapier Newsflash allows you to post announcements from another app via a Zap. Learn how to trigger Newsflashes from Zapier.

• Hoopla API Newsflash allows you to post announcements if you have integrated your custom CRM or data source via the Hoopla API.

The character limit for the message of a newsflash is 120 characters.
