So i have seen this asked many times on the Community and there does not seem to be an answer.
**WE ARE ON GENEVA RELEASE**
UNTIL NOW.
There is a table that is not advertised in ServiceNow anywhere that i can find. There is no wiki about it, and there is no known discussion on the community about it that i could find.
Well DING DING DING... ServiceNow Devs do it again.
Broadcast Message: sys_broadcast_message table.
There is nothing in the filter navigator about it, so you'll have to create something for it to be in your Navigator List.
I have customized my form a lot. the basic form is just that: Basic:
The message seems like it's Full HTML coding and it is displayed like so: Just the red box. I have customized it to be the blue header in the center and spaced out.
But so far it's pretty awesome. I wanted to post about it because there have been so many questions about it without an answer to this point.

Nice! I wish I had known about this OOB method of broadcasting a message before I built custom functionality that essentially does the exact same thing utilizing a custom table as well as the sys_user_preference table, a UI Script, and a Script Include. I'd still like to use this OOB method though.

Hi Steven,
How to make this change to blue for the broadcast message? I have created an HTML field and copying value from HTML to Message field. I gave background colour as it is in gs.addInfoMessage(), but it is still showing in the format of gs.addErrorMessage(). May I request for your help please.
Thanks

I am somehow sure that I have to change the property of the "message" field to display in the format of gs.addInfoMessage() because that is the final output but not sure how to do it.
