How do I send indexing group messages?

Group administrators can send messages to members of their group. They can send a message to the entire group or only to group members with specific roles.

Note: Indexing uses a different messaging service than FamilySearch messaging. You can see and send indexing messages on the Indexing page. For FamilySearch messages, click the Messages link in the header of the FamilySearch site.

Steps

  1. Sign in to FamilySearch.
  2. At the top of the page, click Get Involved.
  3. Click Indexing.
  4. Scroll down to the Groups section.
  5. Click the name of the group.
  6. Click Send Message.
  7. To send a message to the group or a subgroup, click the icon in the To field, and select a category of group members.
  8. To send a message to specific individuals, click in the To field, and type the profile found in the directory, or click Add Recipients, and choose one or more names from the list of group members. You can filter the list of group members by clicking one of the options in the left margin.
