Querying for the Announcements Leo Dashevskiy  2015-03-18 10:43

Hi folks!

I know that the Announcements webpart is visible even without a user being logged in, which means it is visible to the guest user, correct?

We have a 'home page' for our LK server that we'd like to have a mirroring copy of the main Announcements webpart, so my question is: is there an API to obtain the listing of Announcements or maybe they are stored in the database in a nice format somewhere, in which case in which schema and table?

Thanks.

Hi Leo,

Yes, the Announcements section is visible to anyone, including guests.

The Announcements section is controlled by the Announcements Schema and within the Announcements table, which you can access via the Schema Browser.

Was this what you were looking for?

Regards,

Jon

Jon!

It is indeed the 'announcement' schema and the 'announcement' table that has what I'm looking for.

I must've been not in the home container yesterday, when I looked at it and did not see anything in there.

Thanks for your reply.
