POST/v1/announcements

Send a must-read announcement

create_announcement

Requires COLLECTION_ANNOUNCE on the card. The audience is groups and people; at sending, the recipients are resolved from the group members, and only the people who can access the card stay. Without scheduled_send_at, the announcement is sent right away; with a date, it is sent later. Recipients get a KNOWLEDGE_ALERT task; the announcement becomes a card comment. An API key names the sender in sender_id (since 1.62.0).

Authentication

Send an API key in the Authorization header: Authorization: Bearer <key>.

Header parameters

Idempotency-Keystring
Key for a safe retry of a write: 1 to 255 printable ASCII characters; a UUID v4 per logical operation is recommended. A retry with the same key within 24 hours does not run the operation again: it returns the saved response (status, headers and body) with the Idempotency-Replayed: true header. The same key with a different method, path, Content-Type or body returns 409 api.idempotency_mismatch; while the first request is still running, 409 api.idempotency_in_progress with Retry-After: 1. After a 5xx or 429 response the key is released, and a retry runs the operation again. The key is scoped to the organization and the caller (API key, user, or custom source key).

Object: AnnouncementCreate

card_idstringrequired

Default: ""length ≤ 700
user_idsarray of integer
group_idsarray of integer
scheduled_send_atstring (date-time) | null
sender_idinteger
Sender of the announcement when an API key calls (since 1.62.0): an active user of the key's organization; recipients see the announcement from this user (created_by). Required for a key (otherwise 422 validation.failed); a user of another organization or an inactive user returns 404 users.not_found. The permission to announce on the card is checked for the key. In a session, the sender is the signed-in user: a different sender_id returns 422 validation.failed.

Response headers

RateLimit-Policy
Limits in effect, in the format of the IETF draft draft-ietf-httpapi-ratelimit-headers: comma-separated items "<name>";q=<quota>;w=<window in seconds>. key is the request rate of the API key (the quota is the burst, the window is the time to refill it fully; for a session it is user, without credentials ip); minute, day and month are the organization's quotas for the calendar minute, day and month in UTC.
RateLimit
What is left of each limit in RateLimit-Policy: "<name>";r=<remaining>;t=<seconds until reset>.
X-RateLimit-Limit
Limit of the strictest entry in RateLimit-Policy (the one with the fewest requests left).
X-RateLimit-Remaining
Requests left under the strictest limit.
X-RateLimit-Reset
Seconds until the strictest limit resets.
Idempotency-Replayed
true means the response was replayed from the saved one for this Idempotency-Key: the operation did not run again.

429Too many requests (`api.rate_limited`), the organization's quota for the minute, day or month is used up (`api.quota_exceeded`; `error.details` holds `quota`, `limit` and `reset_at`), the organization's limit is reached, or the answer service is busy (`answers.engine_busy`).

Error codes

Codes this endpoint can return in error.code, besides the general codes of every request.

Safe retries

Send an Idempotency-Key header (for example a UUID) with each POST and PATCH. A retry with the same key within 24 hours returns the saved response instead of running the request again.

Rate limits

Responses carry the RateLimit and RateLimit-Policy headers and the earlier X-RateLimit-Limit, X-RateLimit-Remaining and X-RateLimit-Reset. A 429 response has Retry-After in seconds: wait and retry.
