Create an announcement banner

An announcement banner shows at the top of every page in Grafana. You can use the announcement banner to communicate information to your users, such as maintenance windows, new features, or other important updates.

Create or update an announcement banner

By default, only organization administrators can create announcement banners. You can customize who can create announcement banners with Role-based access control.

To create or update an announcement banner, follow these steps:

  1. Click Administration > General > Announcement banner in the side navigation menu.

    The Announcement banner page allows you to view, create, and update the settings for an announcement banner. Only one banner can be active at a time.

  2. Toggle the Enable switch on to enable the announcement banner. You can disable the banner at any time with this toggle.

  3. Enter the Message for the announcement banner. The message field supports Markdown.

    To add a header, use the following syntax:

    ### Header
    

    To add a link, use the following syntax:

    [link text](https://www.example.com)
    

    The preview of the configured banner appears on top of the form, under the Preview section.

  4. Select the banner's start date and time in the Starts at field. By default, the banner starts being displayed immediately. You can set a future date and time for the banner to start displaying.

  5. Select the banner's end date and time in the Ends at field. By default, the banner is displayed indefinitely. You can set a date and time for the banner to stop displaying.

  6. Select the type of banner in the Variant field. This determines the color of the banner's background.

  7. Click Save to save the banner settings. The banner displays at the top of every page in Grafana between the start and end dates.
