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?
Usage 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.
Migration to Viva Engage
Hi Would anyone know if there are more options to upload data from our old company portal in bulk to Viva Engage other than the API? I just finished the export of the old portal and have a JSON file with all posts and links to pictures and documents. I scripted everything to download the documents and use the ID of the post as filenames so I can add them back. Drawback of using the API is that you can't post on behalf of someone else so all user related data is lost nor can you set the date on which the post is originally created. Any tips would be welcome. Thanks!
Viva Goals - Reassigning Objectives & Key Results
Hi All, I’m wondering if someone would be able to help with what seems like a Viva Goals glitch described below please? It seems that when reassigning objectives or key results within Viva Goals, it seems to ‘hang onto’ the data from the older owner when creating filtered views. E.G.1: I reassigned objectives & key results what were initially assigned to OldUser1, to NewUser2. Yet, when I do a filter by owner OldUser1, which should be blank, it shows me NewUser2 newly assigned objectives E.G.2: Similarly, User3 has reassigned some of his objectives to others, yet when filtering for his objectives only, it brings up other objectives that are no longer related to User3. These also appear within his “My OKRs” view which clutters up his filtered view. I’m guessing its something to do with cached data maybe but just guessing. Would anyone know of a solution to this please?
"New" to Viva Engage, with over 100 existing M365 Groups (private) - how to approach communities?
Hi, I have used Yammer in the past (pre 2016) and have refrained and not encouraged usage in our organization due to the very disconnected user experience and also not having the ressources to manage yet another channel of communications. I want revisit the current Viva Engage situation. I've let the Yammer Support reprovision our network for EU data residency, so it's completely empty. By reading the documentation I would assume we're about as aligend to M365 as is possible. It seems like I can create Communities that are connected to M365 Groups by-default, but I haven't found the other way around. What am I todo with our existing 100 private M365 Groups that mostly represent organizational departments, project teams, larger organizational topics/interests? Are we expected to re-create all these groups? Are there any useful "migration" paths/ideas for this scenario? I'm really not a fan of M365 Groups clutter and also do not allow the creation of groups outside of administrator for this very reason. any help or further links to other resources are high appreciated.
