- Frédérique HarmszeBrass ContributorWhen will Viva Topics become available for Dutch? If you don't know exactly when, maybe a ballpark?
- Frédérique HarmszeBrass ContributorCan the manager see that I am working too much, or an aggregate that her team is working too much?
- Frédérique HarmszeBrass ContributorAbout Insights: How can we reassure the users that Insights is really personal? They are scared that their manager and everyone can see their personal stuff. Managers get aggregated info, maybe limited "named" info? Can I point to a resource that explains it? Where? 😉

For managers, Insights provides aggregated collaboration information about the team. Only managers whose team meets or exceeds the Minimum team size setting can access manager insights. The size of the team counts the manager and all the employees who directly or indirectly report to that manager within the organization's reporting hierarchy. This minimum number can be adjusted by an admin, but the minimum required setting is 10 team members. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/viva/insights/use/manager-settings
- AshleighBCopper ContributorFor Connections within Teams, we pointed it to our Home Site and so it shows our home page to our Intranet. Is it just putting the intranet into Teams? Is there more that we're missing out on?
- JorunAkerbergLMBrass ContributorViva Connections: Will there be a standard tile showing my Appovals due (from Teams Approval app)? (just like the existing tile for Assigned tasks where the tile highlight how many important tasks I have due) The standard tile for Approval I see now initially is only showing links to go to Approval to either create an Approval request or see the ones I have. I want it more action oriented – to instantly see if (how many) I have any to approve

Good feedback. The team is continuing to improve the 1st party tiles and we will pass this on.

- CiaraCoulesCopper ContributorLast hour, Mike said that there is no tablet support as of yet. When can we expect to see this, and would it be more like the desktop or mobile experience?
- CiaraCoulesCopper ContributorSorry, this is in relation to Viva Connections.

It's feedback we have heard and are aware of but at this time we have nothing to announce at this point.
- JJudas_CPAdvCopper ContributorI noted an open question thread in the Tech Community regarding the Viva Topics App for Teams... : https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-teams/viva-topics-app-for-ms-teams/m-p/2548660. As of October, it did not look like the Teams App for Topics has been released... can you confirm when the App will be released or is there perhaps a way I can sign up to be a tester if it is still in development?
- JJudas_CPAdvCopper ContributorGot it ...thanks... I have the Topic Center setup in my tenant and in SharePoint, the Topics Adaptive Card lights up as expected... it does not yet operate that way in Teams... ETA?
- EBlackburn1000Brass ContributorCan you provide some detail about the user experience for Viva Topics for Contributors? I'm excited at the opportunity to empower staff to be knowledge experts, but would like to know more about what it's like for someone to add new or edit existing content

Hello Evan, Viva Topics builds on the Microsoft 365 apps and content you already use every day and the connections you have with people across your organization. Viva Topics uses AI to reason over your organization’s data and automatically organizes content and expertise across your systems and teams into related topics, such as projects, products, processes, and customers. Optionally also provides ability to manually edit or even create topics, Knowledge managers is a key role who can help to guide discovered topics through the various topic lifecycle stages: Suggested, Confirmed, Published, and Removed. Below is set of great content to refer to https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-teams-community-blog/get-started-with-microsoft-viva-topics/ba-p/2944762 https://resources.techcommunity.microsoft.com/viva-topics/faq/ - EBlackburn1000Brass ContributorExcellent live answer, thank you!
- EBlackburn1000Brass ContributorI really like the Featured banner in Learning within Teams. Can we get a preview of managing/adding customized content to this banner?
