New designs for post types in Viva Engage

Originally posted by Microsoft Dec 8, 2023 Uncategorized 0 Comments

Starting in December 2023, Viva Engage customers will see a refreshed design for question, praise, and poll post types.

The new design for post types in Viva Engage simplifies the user experience, putting more emphasis on content. The streamlined approach will be available in all endpoints—web, SharePoint, mobile apps, interactive Outlook emails, and the Engage apps in Outlook and Teams.

No functionality or data will be lost because of this change. The new designs are a refreshed user experience to help maintain a modern, content-first look and feel in Viva Engage.

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 190366.

When will this happen

Standard release: We’ll begin to rollout the change in December 2023. All customers are expected to have the new designs by the end of March 2024.

How this will affect your organization

Users will see a different design for polls, praises, and questions in Viva Engage communities and storylines. Only the frontend user experience is affected with this change. Users will continue to have the same capabilities available to create and view content in Viva Engage. There is no action required to adopt the new designs in your network.

What you can do to prepare

There is no action required to adopt the new designs in your network. Admins may want to review any internal help or guidance they may have created for end users.
