Step 2:

Select “Features” from the side menu on the left side of your screen. Choose the “Inbox” feature from the list of features and click on “Add feature” when the popup window appears. If you find it difficult to locate the “Inbox” feature, you can use the search box to find it. Just type in “Inbox” and press “Enter” on your keyboard.

The default message section is a Text but you can add images, videos and even source codes as separate sections of your message.

Step 5:

Scroll down to the “Text” section, type in your message and fill out any other sections you might have added. Scroll down and click save when you have completed all the sections of your message.

After clicking on save, the “Send a message” section will become visible. You can select a date to send your message by clicking on the textbox below the “Send my message at this date” label. Leave the text box empty to send the message immediately. Click the “Send to all” checkbox to select all your users as recipients quickly. Click the “Send a push notification to inform users” checkbox to enable push notifications for all your users. Click on the “Send message” button to save these changes.
