The news service

News posts for a project are visible on the projectʹs home page, and the applicationʹs main page lists news posts for all projects visible to the current user.

Starting with CollabNet TeamForge , project news is presented on the projectʹs home page via a "Project News" page component, which can optionally be deleted or added to other pages. Each instance of the Project News component is a view of the same set of project news posts.

Some examples of activities that are managed by the NewsApp service are:

• Returning a list of all news posts in a project.
• Returning a list of all news posts matching a search string.
• Returning a list of all news posts in all projects of which a specified user is a member.
• Creating a news post.
• Deleting a news post.

After authenticating the user through the CollabNet service, you can access the NewsApp service to work with news posts.
