Viva Engage: Verified Answers
Microsoft Viva Engage is introducing a Verified Answers feature, allowing community experts and admins to mark credible answers as “Verified.” This enhances credibility, streamlines knowledge sharing, and boosts community engagement. Rollout begins January 2025, with no admin action required for the automatic update.
We are rolling out the Verified Answers feature in Microsoft Viva Engage. This new functionality empowers community experts and admins to mark answers on questions as “Verified” to provide a reliable indicator of credible and trustworthy information.
Only assigned community experts and community administrators have the ability to mark an answer as “Verified.” This ensures that the verification comes from users with recognized expertise and authority within the community.
Key Benefits of Verified Answers:
- Enhanced credibility: With Verified Answers, users can confidently rely on the accuracy of responses, knowing that they have been reviewed and endorsed by designated experts.
- Streamlined knowledge sharing: Verified Answers are highlighted and pinned at the top of discussion threads, making it easier for everyone in the community to access key information quickly.
- Robust community engagement: This feature not only recognizes the expertise within your community but also fosters a culture of trust and thorough knowledge exchange.
