Create polls, praise, announcements, and questions

Creating a poll, praising a coworker, making an announcement, or asking a question are effective ways for you to interact with your Viva Engage network. When you create a post, choose the post type that best suits your needs in the publisher window of your Home feed or storyline, if you have one.

Note: Storyline is a Viva Engage Premium feature and must be enabled by your administrator. 

If you want to post to a specific community, you’ll need to select it from your Home  feed or go to the community landing page.

On a Microsoft 365 connected network, your posts automatically initiate notifications in Microsoft Teams and Outlook. This allows your audience to react, reply, and share in the popular apps they use every day. To track engagement and reach of your polls, praise, and announcement, see Conversation Insights
