Domain announcements are sent to everyone in your domain and can include everyone in your subdomains.
When a new announcement is sent, users get a notification in the Communications icon in their toolbar and on their Home page next to Announcements.
Announcements remain in the Communications tool for users until the assigned End date passes.
