Info
The steps below can be completed after you sign up for Windows Azure. If you haven’t already done so, visit https://signup.azure.com to create an Azure account.

Step 1 - Authentication

  1. In your Vibe admin console, navigate to Developer Tools > Modules > Global Module Settings.
  2. Open Developer tools > Modules > Global Module Settings

  3. In the Global Module Settings, open Viva Engage API.

  4. In the Viva Engage API Global Settings and complete the following:
    1. Application Type - Select Azure Active Directory (AAD)
    2. Use Shared Azure AD App - Tick the checkbox and accept the alert after selecting this option
    3. Click [OK] to close and save the settings.
  5. Reopen the Viva Engage API Global Module Settings to complete the authentication process:
    1. New Authentication: Click [Authenticate New User]* and log in to your Office 365 account.
    2. Existing Authentications: Remove any existing authentications, then click [Authenticate New User]* and log in to your Office 365 account
      Info
      *When you authenticate using an Azure portal administrator account, you will have the option of accepting the requested permissions (see screenshot below).
      If your Office 365 account does not have Azure portal admin permissions, your administrator will need to approve the requests via https://portal.azure.com. 

Step 2 - Connect your Viva Engage Groups

When step 1 above is successfully completed and the requested permissions have been accepted, follow these steps to select the Viva Engage groups (or Communities) you want to share on your Vibe channel:
  1. Open Developer tools > Modules > Global Module Settings
  2. Use the Viva Engage Groups field to select the group(s) you want to connect to Vibe. TIP: Hold down the CTRL button to select multiple groups.
  3. Click [OK] to save your changes.
    Considerations:
    1. If you cannot see the groups you want to connect to Vibe, check your current authentications.
    2. Review these settings and adjust as needed:
      1. Minutes to Refresh API Data: This setting controls how frequently Viva Engage data is refreshed.
      2. Number of Posts Per Group: This determines the maximum number of posts displayed for each selected group.

    Create Slide

    1. In the portal, create a slide using one of the Social Media templates and select your Viva Engage community (or group).
    2. Optional:
      1. Tailor your Viva Engage feed by adding topics to new or existing posts.
         
      2. To replace the default images used for text only posts and polls, create new graphics @ 703 w x 244 h px (JPG, 72dpi) and send them to your Vibe Support team to upload.
