65 TopicsTrimming Viva Engage default “All Company” community membership
Hey Question/problem statement: I’m looking in if there is a possibility of trimming the Viva Engage default “All Company” community membership list/count? Background: We have a lot of “external/contractors” that are fully O365 E3 licensed, and it also semes disable user if still with in the count (this is just a speculation), that we wish to remove from the membership list/count. My thoughts: Is the trimming the membership count just removing the Viva Engage Core (but all so removing the “external/contractors” access, which is fine) Or is it at all possible to trim the member list?Solved544Views0likes4CommentsDoes anyone know how I can get a list of all the members of a Viva Engage Community?
I would like to export the list of names, or, even better, email addresses, of all members of a Viva Engage Community of which I am an Admin, ideally in Excel format. I know that there is an option to import members using CSV format, but is there also a way to export them? There are several hundred people in the Community and I don't want to have to scroll down and type out all their names one-by-one!Inline images still not available for Discussions and Questions
I understand that "Articles" is a new premium feature for Viva Engage that allows inline images when creating an article. However, does anyone know why inline images are still not available in "Discussions" and "Questions" post options? This feature has been missing since day one for those post types. Although it became available last year with "Articles," it has yet to be integrated into the most frequently used post types in Engage, where it is desperately needed. What is the reasoning behind this?90Views0likes1CommentUsage Of Custom Email Domain for Viva Engage communications
Can you use a custom domain for all Viva Engage communications? Currently there's security concerns that emails from Viva Engage can not be allow listed since they use the same domain other tenants use. We have security concerns this maybe exploited by attackers looking to exploit the platform in malicious email attacks. What controls are there (if any) to send engagements from our custom accepted domain for the tenant so our cybersecurity teams don't have security concerns? Also can you provide documentation that keeps the platform from being exploited by a threat actors from targeting other Microsoft 365 tenants? What controls have been implemented to keep this from being active exploited? Or has this been considered? This has legitimate concerns from our cybersecurity teams. Defender 365 solutions are not an acceptable answer.66Views0likes2CommentsPrivate Communities: Enable "Unlisted" Status and Hide Membership on Storylines
When using private communities in Viva Engage, it's not always desirable for these communities to be discoverable. A welcome addition would be the ability to set an Engage community as both private and unlisted, thereby removing the option for users to apply for membership. Currently, if a user is a member of a private community, this membership is visible to others on that user's storyline. This means it's possible to piece together the membership of private communities by viewing individual users' storylines.129Views0likes1CommentUsers in "view-only mode" get stuck in the Acceptable Use Policy
Background I work with a company that is using Viva Engage. In some of their Communities, they have set restrictions so that only those who are Community Admins are allowed to post posts. When a Community Admin create a post and attaches an Excel file to the post, the Excel file is editable by all members of the Community. (Actually, it would have been optimal if the setting that limits who can post posts had also limited the ability to edit attached files, but that is not the case.) The setting i have tested Therefore, i tested "Manage user privileges with view-only mode in Viva Engage". As a Viva Engage administrator, I opened the Viva Admin Center and opened the "Governance and Compliance" tab. Under this tab there is an option called "User Management" where you can "adjust user settings surrounding the creation and visibility of contents". This sounded good, so I added the users that I wanted to limit these possibilities for so that they would basically only have read-only access to the community. The problem that arises This is where the strange problem arises. When these users, who I added under "User Management" now enter a community, the window with "Acceptable Use Policy" appears and it is completely OK but after that there is no possibility to accept, close or exit this window. Is this a bug or is there any additional setting that I have to turn on for this to work as intended?94Views0likes0CommentsDisabling Viva Engage Email Notifications to specific accounts
We have just begun using Viva Engage in our organization, and we want to disable the email notifications to specific mailboxes (efax mailboxes, shared mailboxes, etc.). Is there a way to accomplish this? Can I use a 365 Group to do so? Any help is greatly appreciated!!! AdamSolved864Views0likes2CommentsMerge 2 communities in Viva engage and delete one
Hello Members, Please help me with this requirement below a) Remove/close this viva community - News - 6.2k users b) Continue with this community only - News in Exchange - 4.7k users When the News group is deleted, it would be good if the people that are in group a) are automatically added to group b) so they don´t need to enter another group on their own. Is there a proper process/solution for this? Thanks!424Views0likes6CommentsAvoid no-member user discussion partecipation in private community
Hi, I want to use Viva Engage but when I create a private community I noticed that in a discussion a member can mention or add a user who is not a member of the community! This non-member user gets an email with which he views the specific discussion and can participate by making a contribution. But what if I want to prevent non-member users from being added in discussions? Is there any way to disable this feature which moreover conflicts with the definition of a private community in Viva Engage where "only approved members can view and participate in the discussion"?95Views0likes0Comments
