Is it possible to have rotating announcements?
There are a few things that we would like to constantly remind students of, without having to repeatedly send out blast emails. Is it possible to create a set of announcements and somehow have Brightspace rotate through them automaticaly? Or is there some kind of banner space like a billboard?

Hello @Stuart.A.435, thanks for your question!
The best way I can think of for you to do this would be to schedule announcements by adding both a start and end date/time.
Once you have a single announcement created, perhaps around how to access student services, you could copy that announcement and adjust the start/end dates in the copy for when you'd like that to be posted again. This would save you from needing to re-create or paste the text of the announcement in.
Hope this may be an option for you. If you have any questions please let us know!

@Stephen.R.50 Thank you for this, unfortunately we were hoping for a more automated solution. We'll think of something else then.

Hello @Stuart.A.435,
You're welcome!
It's also possible to manage this with API's. I wonder if that would provide you some more flexibility and automation.
