401 Unauthorized error in MS Teams
When a news post is published in our intranet in Sharepoint, a MS Teams notification is sent from the system to all colleagues who are used to collaborating (they are in his “circles” according to VIVA Insights) with the author of the post. Although the publication is successful and the link to the news post is active, sometimes those who click on the notification from MS Teams receive a “401 Unauthorized” error message that makes the post unviewable from MS Teams. In the past we fixed this issue on the specific client by clearing the Teams cache, but we have more than 6000 clients... This creates a flaw in the user experience that we need to fix. Thanks!
Viva Connections sends reoccurring notifications to Teams
In our global SharePoint Online intranet we have set all country sites as Official news sites and targeted news for each country. The problem with Viva Connections notifications in Teams occurs in one of the country sites: people who belong to the target group receive at least 4 notifications per news post (1 or 2 per day) saying "Review important news from your organization". This site is multilingual so there are 8 language versions for each news post. Do Viva Connections send a notification from each language version separately? However, people do not get 8 notifications - just 2 to 5 notifications per news post. This is very annoying and we receive a lot of complaints. Why do we receive this kind of reoccurring notifications and what can we do to prevent them? From all other sites we receive just regular notifications (1 per news post) saying "<Someone> published news"
Viva connections icon change in Teams mobile app shows blank square
Hello, Last week we setup our SPO intranet site as a home site set as the default experience in Viva Connections in MS Teams. Whilst this works well in the desktop app, when using the Teams mobile app a custom icon we've deployed, doesn't show and instead just shows this blank square as highlighted below: Is this happening because the teams mobile app doesn't support custom icons? or have we missed something in the Viva Connections configuration to get the custom icon deployed correctly to the teams mobile app? Thanks!
Issues integration viva connections in Ms Teams
Hello all, We're currently experiencing an issue in SharePoint online used through Viva connections in Teams. The issue is visible in both the desktop as web application. When we open sites via Viva connections we're able to see content and documents on pages but when we use the horizontal navigation bar to navigate to certain folders we're seeing a blank screen in Teams in the desktop and browser. In SharePoint online we don't see this issue. (Navigating to a folder) (Blank screen) The same issue can be found here that was posted by someone else experiencing this issue: Links to SharePoint document folders do not work within the Viva - Microsoft Community Kind regards, Siebe STNews Spotlight in the new desktop experience is not respecting audience targeting.
I can't find any documentation that says this is or is not an intended behavior, but the new News Spotlight is not respecting audience targeted. I have confirmed that multiple US employees are seeing posts targeted at Canada only, and myself (a contractor who is not a part of any AD groups used for targeting) can see all the news posts, including this one. Does anyone have any insight into the behavior of the News Spotlight? I fear we may have to scrap the Viva Connections app all together and go with a custom Teams App that takes you strait to the home page. Personalization was a key factor in moving to Viva Connections.Scoped search not available in Teams client
Hi all! New here, first post. According to this post in the roadmap, scoped search in the Teams client should be up and running. However, we can't see it. Or rather, we saw it for a couple of days back in October (?) but then it disappeared. We can see and use it in Teams on the web, but it would be so much better and easier for us if we could use it in the client. Is there a setting we're missing? Or is it a bug? Can anyone here confirm that they can use scoped search in the Teams client? We have a home site set up in Viva Connections that we want to be able to search through the search box in Teams. Thanks in advance!
DeepLinking - Viva Connection in Teams - Link to SP page from team message
I am creating a post in teams channels when a News page is created and published. I want to be able to create a URL to the specific sharepoint page that opens in the Viva Connection app in Teams. Currently the only URL i have been able to create is a URL that opens in the browser. I have tried this powershell script: # Define variables $vivaConnectionsAppId = "00000000-0000-0000-0000-ee00425598aa" $sharePointPageUrl = "https://company.sharepoint.com/sites/net/SitePages/MyPage.aspx" # Encode the SharePoint URL $encodedSharePointPageUrl = [System.Web.HttpUtility]::UrlEncode($sharePointPageUrl) # Generate the deep link $deepLink = "https://teams.microsoft.com/l/entity/$vivaConnectionsAppId/?webUrl=$encodedSharePointPageUrl" # Open the deep link in the default web browser Start-Process $deepLink The URL i get from this looks like this for example: https://teams.microsoft.com/l/entity/00000000-0000-0000-0000-ee00425598aa/?webUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fcompany.sharepoint.com%2Fsites%2FIntranat%2FSitePages%2FMyPage.aspx When someone clicks on the link. Teams opens the viva connection app but only display the startpage of the site. It does not go to the specific page (in this example "MyPage.aspx" How should i create the URL to deeplink to the specific page in Viva Connection? I want to deeplink in the viva connection application in Teams!
