Bringing your most important updates into one central place

Key Updates is a new feature that will help ensure that your most important posts are front and center for all the right people.


We’re excited to launch key updates, a new home for your critical, time-sensitive updates. Key updates will replace Mark as Important. Internal communications professionals and leaders will be able to mark any post (including past posts) as a key update. People will be able to see all posts marked as key updates at the top of the News Feed, so they don’t miss any important news.
