easily send emails/notifications from communication sites
RobElliott thanks for this suggestion. we dont have an all company teams because with nearly 70,000 employees, it would become a nightmare (i assume - i dont know because we've never had it). and since we only use private groups, teams groups are only available for collab sites. the yammer idea isnt bad, but yammer adoption is low at our company as well. additionally, we dont want to 'spam' or clutter users' feed with posts for groups they dont belong to or dont care about. for example, if a CIT group in our indianapolis headquarters has an upcoming event, it's only relevant to the few hundred people who participate. yet, it would be in the All Company yammer page for our 70,000 employees. we want to try to target the messages as best as we can to avoid overcommunicating to employees who don't want the info.
i will definitely run your idea by my IT partners as well (i'm in corporate communications so i'm not an expert in configuartions). thank you!!
Kate Bowling we're a similar size at 65,000 people. If you've got specific groups whom you wat to send the targeted emails to then a flow in Power Automate can do this automatically whenever a new news story is published. But you'd probably need to have a column for the group involved and change the page details so that it only sends it to that group. Do-able but with that number of staff you don't really want to be sending vast numbers of emails.
