Viva Topics Cards in Viva Connection

Microsoft Viva is rolling out Topics action cards in Viva Connections to encourage knowledge discoverability, engagement, and sharing. Users will be able to engage with topics with the Adaptive Topics Cards. 

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 100253

When this will happen:

We will begin rollout in mid-November and expect rollout to be completed by late December.

How this will affect your organization:

Viva Topics will have two different action cards that can be used on the Viva Connections Dashboard:

  • The Viva Topics Discover card can be used to view topics and knowledge areas for people who could be interested in learning more or contributing to a topic. Topics and knowledge areas are dynamically displayed in the card based on the viewer’s interests, current projects, and expertise. 
  • The Viva Topics Share card can be used to reach people who are known knowledge managers and are already engaged with topics and knowledge areas. Topics and knowledge areas are dynamically displayed in the card based on the viewers interests, current projects, and expertise.

What you need to do to prepare:

If Admins would like to add this feature for their users, Admins will need to have site owner permissions to add Viva Topics cards to the Viva Connections Dashboard. You may want to notify your users about this change and update your training and documentation as appropriate.
