- What will be the new email address(es) used for the email notifications in future?
- AllisonMichels
Microsoft
Still TBD, but this question is referenced around the 24:00 mark live in the video. More to come on this.
- Will the URL changes later this year be applied at the same time in the tenant networks (canonical networks) as well as the external networks? Will redirects work in both types of networks for an indefinite time? Also links to posts that were manually shared (copy and paste) across the 2 network types in posts?
- AllisonMichelsWe don't know exactly but will be following up specifically about the external networks. Once the tenant networks are switched over the external networks would likely follow, more details to come. The team references this question around the 22:00 min mark in the video.
I wanted to make sure I understood, it says Engage, but the URL shows Yammer. Is this also changing by the end of this week?
- AllisonMichelsThis question has been answered in the Q&A around min 19:00
- AllisonMichelsIt will change by the end of calendar year. We will share WHAT it will be changed to in the coming months.
- What is the plan for external networks and/or what is the direction for extending community outside of your organisation?
- AllisonMichelsGood question! We start to answer this around the 53:00 min mark
- How much longer will it take for Viva Engage to appear for all web users? We still see many users who still have the older UI.
- AllisonMichelsIf you don't see the changes reflected by tomorrow (July 14) please submit a ticket. We address this at min 33:00ish
For companies that have both Viva Engage and Workplace by Meta, will it be possible at some point to integrate VE live events on Workplace by Meta, and vice e versa?
- espnguyenI'm not an expert on Workplace but I think it would be possible today to broadcast live event into Workplace by using a Teams Live Event. In a Teams Live Event, you could use an external encoder (ie. OBS, Wirecast) and stream that into Workplace.
- Thank you for your answer. We actually tested Teams live event on Workplace, but it is not working properly, there are a lot of technical glitches :S
- 1. I'd like to hear more about the timeline for the rebrand. My company wants to wait until the rebrand is complete in order to continue the rollout. 2. Is there a way to better create a digest experience? In other words, to curate the content we receive in a weekly summary?
- AllisonMichelsTell us more about your experience with Yammer / Viva Engage. Is your organization already using it? Most everything beyond the domains have been rebranded, so there's not too much else to wait for. Let us know what you need. This blog also has the rebranding toolkit with assets to help. https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/viva-engage-blog/yammer-com-rebranded-to-viva-engage/ba-p/3856807 The content curation is user driven and specific to each employees interactions within an organization and the content and communities they are engaged with. More details coming and we are working on updates to the digests, so stay tuned.
- Hi Team Can you share more 'videos / demos - how to guides' in regards to the new Viva Engage premium features and the new admin portal, lot's of customers are so confused with all the changes and what to use when, this would really help many - thank you
- AllisonMichelsMore to come soon. Stay tuned.
- Will Viva Engage functionality eventually integrate into other products, i.e. will bookmarks become favorites, will the Inbox will integrate/sync with Teams notifications, etc.?
- AllisonMichelsThis was answered around the 39:00 minute mark! Great question!
- Is there a way to test the new Vive Engage features in a test environment before enabling them in our instance?
- espnguyenMarie, here's a link to enroll in a trial of the Viva Engage premium capabilities if you have interest in that. https://aka.ms/vivaengage/premiumtrial
