In trouble with "Articles"
Hello, everyone! I’ve been using the 'Article' mode in Viva Engage for a while now, and it gets good reach whenever we publish newsletters in this format. However, last week I went onto the platform to schedule an 'Article' post and the option was no longer showing up for me. I’ve already checked with my company's IT team, but it doesn't seem to be related to my license (as far as we could tell). Has anyone experienced this or know what might be causing it? I couldn't find any community articles about this issue.SolvedJuliaNicolodiAug 03, 2026Copper Contributor35Views1like2Comments
Video links becoming attachments rather than embeds
Since 3 weeks ago, whenever I paste a Vimeo link into Viva Engage it becomes an attachment that, when posted, requires the post to be expanded before it can be watched. Previously it's always scraped the vid and embedded to the post, so both the player and copy are immediately viewable by the community. None of my Vimeo settings have changed so I'm unsure why this has occurred. Could someone please assist?SolvedJordsAUJun 01, 2026Copper Contributor89Views1like1Comment
Issue with notifications in external network
I am having problems with seeing notifications from external network (Microsoft's network to be exact). I can see the notification count all right: However upon clicking the bell, I get this error 90% of the time: What is really weird, is that every now & then it works just fine - it might take 10 times trying the bell icon, or 50, but those notifications will at some point be shown to me all right. I seem to be in tiny minority of people having this issue. Does anyone have any guidance or troubleshooting approach? Is this a setting in my home tenant, or Microsoft tenant? Account permissions? Does a log or telemetry exist anywhere where I could start asking the right questions how to resolve this. If anyone has any insight, that would be greatly appreciated Thanks, MaciejSolvedMaciejOMay 07, 2026Copper Contributor64Views0likes1CommentDisable Sharing Outside of Private Group
I work in a large organization, and we have many private groups to avoid employees getting tired of seeing posts that are not relevant to them. However, it is difficult to tell whether a group is private or not, so users often end up sharing posts from private groups. Is there a way to disable the sharing option in our group? And could you please make it easier to see when a post is in a private group?SolvedCathrina_de_LangeFeb 04, 2026Tin Contributor115Views0likes2CommentsEnhancements wanted for Viva Engage Event Experience
In the Event tab within Viva Engage Communities it would be great with some improvements to enhance the usage and customization of Events. Similar to Facebook and Workplace events where participants had the possibility to select "Attending" and "Not attending". We have cases where we plan in person events where it would be really helpful to get an overview of participants that are attending. Similar to Facebook and Workplace events where participants had the possibility to select "Attending" and "Not attending". Additionally, giving users the ability to add events directly to their calendars would help them stay organized and maintain a better overview of company activities. To summarize very wanted features are: The options for participants to click Attending/Not attending. Option to "Add to Calendar" directly from the event page The ability to mark the event as In Person Is this on Microsoft's Roadmap for enhancements, or could it be considered for future updates?SolvedKarolineLSep 29, 2025Copper Contributor152Views0likes2CommentsModern external network migration, how to sign into new tenant with admin account.
Hi there I'll try and explain this as best I can, I'm getting confused about what to do myself now!!! we managed to get an extension from MS to migrate a Yammer external network site to Viva until 31st August. I am following this guide https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/viva/engage/configure-your-viva-engage-network/modern-external-networks I have used my global admin account e.g. myadmin@existing_tenant.onmicrosoft.com from my current tenant to create a new entra work_force tenant (aaa_vivaengage.onmicrosoft.com) so far so good. I can't seem to figure out how to sign into the NEW TENANTs viva engage page with my admin account to generate the association token, I need to use myadmin@existing_tenant.onmicrosoft.com on engage.cloud.microsoft according to the instructions, when I try and do that I am taken to the engage management interface for my existing tenant and all its current content not the new one I've created (aaa_vivaengage.onmicrosoft.com). Essentially, how do I do this bit: As the Viva Engage Global Administrator, go to engage.cloud.microsoft and sign into Viva Engage on the new Microsoft Entra tenant. I can't see a way of switching engage tenants once signed in or beforehand. I am able to create a new global admin account in the new entra tenant and sign into the associated new engage tenant with that but I can't generate the association token using that account and pair the parent and new tenants as the token needs to be created using the admin account that created the new tenant in the first place (myadmin@existing_tenant.onmicrosoft.com). If I try doing that I get an invalid token error when trying to redeem the code in the parent tenant. Any suggestions much appreciated.SolvedAndy_CambsAug 28, 2025Tin Contributor275Views1like4Comments
Troubles with Embedded Viva Engage
Hello ! I am currently working on a platform for my organization, and I found a way to embed viva engage "officially" : https://engage.cloud.microsoft/embed/widget?domainRedirect=true The problem I have is that it seems I can't publish a "normal" post (seems I can ask questions, but not open a discussion). More, pictures aren't available into the feed. Any idea why ? Is the iframe limited ? Do I have to open some rights into Azure first ? Or is there an other way to embed properly Engage, to have a seamless experience ? Thanks a lot for your help ! XavierSolvedXavierCApr 19, 2025Copper Contributor436Views0likes4Comments
Email settings groups
Not sure if its Viva or not, but When I create a group in the admin 365, I can easily tick off the option of "send copies of og group conversations and events ot group members". When created a community within Viva, that group name cant do that. Unable to save the settings "Send copies of group conversations and events to group members' inboxes" and/or "Allow people outside your organization to send email to the group." Either the assigned product license does not include Exchange Online, or you recently created this group and it is not yet ready for processing. Where is the problem?SolvedPierce1975007Apr 18, 2025Copper Contributor514Views0likes6Comments
