### What Are News Targets?

**News Targets** allow administrators to define where news articles appear across multiple spaces. They enable structured and **cross-space news distribution**, ensuring important updates reach the right audiences.

📌 *Example: A company-wide announcement is published once but appears in multiple relevant spaces through a configured News Target.*

***

### Creating and Configuring News Targets

#### Step 1: Access News Target Settings

1. Go to **Admin Console**.
2. Navigate to **Applications > News Settings**.
3. Select **"News Targets"** to view or manage existing targets.

### Managing Permissions for News Targets

#### Who Can Publish to a News Target?

* **Publishers** – Users who have the **Publisher role** in an eligible space or group can submit articles to the selected News Target.
* **Admins** – Can configure and manage targets, control visibility, and set permissions.

&#x20; 💡**Note** If *Content Management* group is selected, then the news can be published to either the space member only or to any user

#### Assigning Permissions

1. In **News Target Settings**, select a target.
2. In the **Permissions** section, enter and select one or more **spaces** or **groups**.
3. Only users who have the **Publisher role** in the selected spaces or groups will be able to publish in this News Target.
4. Save changes to apply the permissions.

📌 *Spaces represent collaborative environments with multiple applications, whereas Groups are organizational units managed in the admin console under Organization > Groups.*

### Editing or Deleting a News Target

#### Modifying a News Target

* Navigate to **Admin Console > News Settings > News Targets**.
* In the **Actions** column, click the **Edit (✏️) icon** next to the target to update details or adjust visibility.

#### Deleting a News Target

* Navigate to **Admin Console > News Settings > News Targets**.
* In the **Actions** column, click the **Delete (🗑️) icon** next to the target.
* A confirmation prompt will appear:\
  \&#xNAN;*"Do you want to remove this news project? It will no longer appear as a choice, but published articles will still be accessible from the news center."*

**Impact:** The target will be removed, meaning new articles cannot be published to it anymore, but existing articles will still be available in the **News Center**. If needed, these articles can be **republished** from the News Center into a different target.
