About communities
In Viva Engage, communities provide a central place for your conversations, files, events and updates. When you join a community, you can participate in that community's feed. For instructions, go to How to join communities
A padlock icon appears on the Join button for private communities. If the community is:
- private, you’ll be added if the community administrator approves your request
- public, you’ll be added right away.
Types of communities
There are default communities and optional communities, as outlined below.
If you request a new community, you will be the community administrator. For instructions, go to How to set up new communities
