      Embed custom CSS into an Announcement

      Announcements are the custom pop-ups designed to inform users about anything that needs their attention immediately or upon a schedule. In addition to displaying the essential information and using CTAs that assist users in carrying out certain tasks, Announcements may also include custom CSS to do the same. For instance, you can insert code snippets into your Announcement that helps to display a button that, when activated, translates the Announcement's content from English to Japanese. This is useful if you want to show information in your Announcement to specific users in Japanese.
