Brief Overview

ShoutOuts are pop-up messages that can be customized and scheduled to appear to users at specific times or in response to specific actions. They are often used to communicate updates, provide tips, or promote features.

ShoutOuts can be built with an action button that will launch another WalkMe item. With just one click users can start a Smart Walk-Thru, play a video, access an article through a resource, shuttle to another page, or open a WalkMe Menu.

When planning your WalkMe solutions, consider how you would like to communicate information to your users.  Instead of relying on your user to seek out information that they might not even know exists, ShoutOuts automatically appear and guarantee users see your message.
