If you want to make sure people pay attention to your message, mark it as important or urgent.
To do that, select Set Delivery Options
beneath the compose box, and then select Important or Urgent. That adds the word "IMPORTANT!" or "URGENT!" to your message. Once in the message, you’ll be able to include files, links, or pictures—whatever you need to get your point across!
To undo this option, select Standard from your delivery options, and the message will be sent as usual.
FYI—An urgent message will notify a person or group repeatedly, every 2 minutes for 20 minutes, or until they read it. You’ll have to judge based on your organization and culture what messages are urgent.
Note: If you don't see the option to mark a message as urgent, it may be because there are more than 20 members in your group chat. Additionally, your administrator needs to enable urgent messages.
