Notifications in Artstep Pro lets the school send school-family messages to all Students, selected Classes or selected Students.
Students and families can view received messages under Notifications in Artstep Student.
Create a Notification
Open Notifications in Artstep Pro and create a Custom Notification.
Complete:
- Notification Title;
- Notification Content;
- Recipients.
Current recipient options include:
- All Students;
- selected Students;
- selected Classes.
You can also start from an available Notification Template.
Save vs Publish
The current page supports:
Save— save without sending;Publish— send to the selected Recipients.
If the content is not final, Save it first and Publish after review.
Review before Publishing
Before sending, confirm:
- Title;
- Content;
- Recipients.
Take extra care before sending a school-wide Notification.
What can be changed after Publishing?
The current product states that after a Notification is sent:
- the Title cannot be edited;
- the Content can still be edited;
- the Class / Student Recipients cannot be reselected.
Finalize the Title and Recipients before Publishing.
Review Read / Unread
After sending, the Notification can show:
Read;Unread.
You can review the corresponding Student list to identify recipients who have not opened the Notification.
Remind again
The current product provides Remind Again for recipients who still need attention.
The current Notification flow allows one additional reminder. After the original send plus one Remind Again record, the reminder action is disabled.
The delivery method depends on the notification services currently enabled for the school.
Delete a Notification
The current product explicitly warns that:
after deletion, all Students who received the Notification will no longer be able to view its content.
Delete is therefore not just a personal list-hide action.
