Broadcasting Issues to Social Media (Overview)

FootPrints can be configured to post messages to your organization's Facebook page and/or Twitter feed about specific Issues affecting the entire organization. Once this is configured by the FootPrints System Administrator and Workspace Administrators, Agents can broadcast individual Issues from the Assignees and Notifications tab/section on the Create Issue and Edit Issue pages.
