Re: Champion Management Platform won't apply digital badge
MelFinn there is a list that controls visibility into the badges. By chance are they set to needing a specific number of points to apply or enabled from that location? If your one user who was able to apply it visits back to apply, do they still see the badge or is it also gone for them? That would help determine what the issue could be. Digital Badge Assets is the list, more info here: Solution Overview · OfficeDev/microsoft-teams-apps-champion-management Wiki · GitHub Also, I'll watch for response here but you can also engage directly with our developers for support off the issues list of that GitHub page to further troubleshoot: Issues · OfficeDev/microsoft-teams-apps-champion-management · GitHub /Josh518Views0likes1CommentRe: Champion Management Platform Install problem
Ok, gotcha! Glad it's enabled now and available! If there is a policy to approve custom apps - the Champion Management Platform would be considered that and have to be approved from that area. Hope the platform helps with your Champion program! /Josh1.7KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Champion Management Platform Install problem
CooperAdmin Hi there! One quick thing, when reinstalling we need to also make sure the site is removed from the deleted items container in SharePoint. So - if you've redeployed a few times and removed the sites from active - please remove also from deleted sites (action would be to do another deployment, this time deleting the initial creation from active sites AND from deleted sites). The other step - please ensure the permissions are granted on the SharePoint site post deployment. Sometimes if those aren't setup right you can see odd behaviors from the app. (Step 8 discusses that part) If any other questions or help needed, please feel free to reach out here where our devs monitor the issues queue -> http://aka.ms/m365cmpissues Let us know how it goes! /Josh1.8KViews0likes2CommentsRe: Champions Management Platform: Events vs. Tournaments
Lisa - on point 2 once you update the logo on SharePoint site, it shouldn't take to long to see it reflect in the app. Note that this will only show in the header - not the actual logo that Teams uses in the app bar. That's a different location you'd have to change and do some app customization. If you are changing and not seeing the header logo reflect though - please do open an issue on the GitHub Issues list and we can investigate! https://github.com/OfficeDev/microsoft-teams-apps-champion-management/issues On topic 3 - we are working on that feature and look forward to sharing it! It'll include the ability to queue up submissions so they can be reviewed prior to awarding, also allowing the ability of notes to be captured from the Champion submitting the event for review. If you have other thoughts on this please do let us know!4.5KViews1like2CommentsRe: Champions Management Platform: Events vs. Tournaments
We are working on this feature, Lisa! It would be a process similar to the champions approval into the platform today, with another screen to show what has been submitted and the ability to approve based on the submissions received.4.5KViews1like0CommentsRe: Champions Management Platform: valuable or too much manual work?
MandyGlim hi there! Look forward to seeing the community come and share their perspectives on the app usage. On the manual entry - yes, that is the state of the app and we'll keep it with requiring the champion to come and add events they've worked on. We are looking to add some approval processes into the fold so that when champions add activities the manager of the solution could go and choose to approve or not / request more info / etc. /Josh1.3KViews1like0CommentsRe: Additional Automation in Champions Management Platform
JoshPowerCoop - absolutely! You could leverage existing intake elsewhere, and then create automation to either write that into the list that is looking for member registration on the CMP site or leverage the list from there and apply some automation rules for approval. It sounds like maybe it's the first scenario - you've got a process already in place for champion submission and approvals. In this scenario, all we would need is to then write those users once processed into the MemberList, where the status is set to approved and the role is Champion (or manager if you have another workflow to make them a manager of the champion program itself. The other required field is the title which = default smtp email address /Josh950Views2likes0CommentsRe: Champions Management Platform: Events vs. Tournaments
jlaneCAS hi! From the events list you are mentioning, that is where you can add your own event types for Champions to log completion against. Lets say that you have specific things your Champions are doing, like maybe a Lunch & Learn. You would add the "Lunch & Learn" to event type, and mark it as active. Also to your question, absolutely you can make your own to show up there :)! The way that it is triggered (or logged) is when a Champion visits the leaderboard - in the main screen is an option to record event. That list is populated from the event list, so the Champions can record activity against any active event type. Walkthrough - Add events you'd like champions to record to the event list (click event list will take you to the SharePoint list where this data is stored Visit the leaderboard from main app then record event to select and record against event type I'm working to publish a customization guide that hopefully will help go into more details on all the areas and ways to customize for programs. Hopefully though the above helps with your direct questions. /Josh5.2KViews1like4CommentsRe: Champions Management Platform - tournament participants not appearing on tournament leaderboard
Deborah Wolf we have released v2.1 which should address this issue, please load and let us know if not! Thanks! https://github.com/OfficeDev/microsoft-teams-apps-champion-management /Josh1.2KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Champions Management Platform - tournament participants not appearing on tournament leaderboard
Deborah Wolf thanks for posting here! Yes indeed, we have a fix coming identified from others that have seen this behavior with participants not showing up. It will be release version 2.1, which is coming very shortly! I'll respond here as well as blog post for 2.1 availability on the Driving Adoption Blog. /Josh1.3KViews1like0CommentsRe: Champions Management Platform: Events vs. Tournaments
CarleneA, absolutely! We are working on some additional materials to help with this post deployment, into now using and expanding the solution materials! Also feel free to reach out directly in the interim to help with any questions over DM. When those materials are ready, I'll be sure to update with a blog post here in the community! /Josh5.6KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Champions Management Platform: Events vs. Tournaments
LisaJo48 - no worries at all, always happy to discuss! Thanks for the great feedback and questions! On the Tournament of Teams - so a few things. First, that component is absolutely optional to deploy. On first deployment of Champion Management Platform the underlying lists, etc will not be created. It's only on the ask from and admin to deploy Tournament of Teams that those resources would get deployed. So, there may be times where you want to hold on deployment of Tournament of Teams until like you mentioned, ready to use for larger organizations. Perhaps some use case could be local tournaments (really - more just targeted tournaments) for the Champions among one another. We see most all use the events and record event for Champion learning/tracking ... but for elevated learning there is no reason you couldn't target a tournament at first just to the Champion community. In the current release just remember only one Tournament can be active at a time, so if you had one going just for them, you'd need to wait for it to finish before loading another one up. We are looking at expanding that to support multiple tournaments down the line, as well as better awareness driving from Champion work to promotion of Tournament for said work out to the right end user audience. /Josh5.7KViews0likes2CommentsRe: Champions Management Platform: Events vs. Tournaments
LisaJo48 - thanks for the questions! Responses below in blue! For Tournaments, So Tournaments are not for the champions? I thought they were another means through which champions could get points, along with Events. Correct, tournaments are not meant for the Champions. We look at Tournaments as ideas and perhaps adoption themes that the Champions would curate, to then be posted as Tournaments for users in the organization. The Tournament is really meant for organization users to come to, be inspired to learn more, and gamify the experience to make it fun! Two lists, ToT User Actions and User Actions have the same columns in them. What is the difference between them and how are they to be used? I'm not sure what ToT User Action list you may be referring to. There should not have been a list with that name created. There are other tournament specific lists too like Tournament Actions and Tournaments that capture the actual steps of a tournament. The User Actions list is used for reporting the actions that users take as part of the tournaments, and then there are a few other Tournament lists created, outlined here. For Events, What does is the "Count" column in the Events Track List for and what does it do? Count here is the actual point value for the record. It would be the event type point value x the number of events the champion logged completed. Which is why you may see a higher count than the strait point value (assume I completed and logged 3 office hours done for a record - 3 x point value = count) How is the Actions List list connected to the Events list, or is it? My perception is that the items in the Actions List are the tasks to be completed, for/with a particular event, in order to earn points, however, I'm not seeing a reference to the Events List in the Actions List (in the same manner as there's a link between the ToT User Actions list and the Tournaments lists). So I'm not sure I understand how/if they connect and how they work together or how to use them if they are not connected. These two are not connected. At this time we are unable to separate out the lists into different directories to help easily clarify ToT vs Champion lists (naming standards we could do a better job of and will add that into our dev lists!). So for these, Action lists is for Tournament of Teams actions, specifically sample actions we introduce to get you started. Events List is the list specifically for Champions and events that are promoted to them for recording / logging as part of their activities. Is it possible to change the column headers shown when you click on the Add Members tile in the app? For my company, Region and Country are not applicable. We'd like those to be "Company" and "Division" instead. I see no need to change the underlying column names in the lists, just what is visible to the end-user/champion when they are submitting the name of a new champion. From the default installation - no. The column names are required to stay the same with the standard deployment. Likewise, there is currently no ability to change the field names from the Add Member screen. You can absolutely customize any part of the solution though via modifying the code. We publish the entire code via the GitHub Repository so if you wanted to make column or UI changes you could. You would then just need to repackage the application and deploy with your custom changes. Customization Overview Thanks for the questions - from it I can also take away some feedback in improving our solution with the following additions to our feature logs to work on: - Clearer list names and naming standards - Ability to modify column or direct UI elements related to Champion nomination captures Thanks for giving us the opportunity to inspire and for the work here, I've added the above to our teams backlog to discuss and if you have other questions related to my responses above, please reply back and let me know! /Josh5.7KViews0likes12CommentsRe: Re: Introducing our Champion Management Platform!
Scarlett725 thanks so much, virtual high-five returned and I've shared your feedback internally to the team! This is why we build solutions to help inspire and execute! Please keep us updated with your journey and future feedback on new versions of the platform and how you see your group leveraging the platform! /Josh2.1KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Re: Introducing our Champion Management Platform!
Scarlett725 - that's awesome!! MemberID That is viewable, the MemberID is a hidden field but if you go look in Member List -> list settings -> Views -> All Items -> tick "ID", you'll then see the relation of Member to ID EventID Same process as above, but against the Events List So, you could take the tracking external - build out same events in Champion Management Platform side, and then import that in using the MemberID / EventID to the Event Track List. We also added in pulling the member name and event name as text to make it easier to report right out of that report ... so you'd want to also have a lookup in your import or spreadsheet buildout so you bring that info in as well as on any next auto capture we'll write that data. Let me know if the above makes sense! /Josh2.2KViews0likes2Comments
