We are releasing an enhanced user experience in Viva Engage for email notifications that admins receive while monitoring network keywords. This enhanced experience addresses security upgrades and offers additional context about the monitored keywords and the associated conversations.

The enhancements and upgrades are summarized below.

  • Private messages between individuals will no longer be detected by the keyword alert system. These messages are confidential and must be discovered through appropriate compliance solutions (e.g. Microsoft e-discovery) when necessary.
  • Email subjects will provide more context on the detected keyword and the associated community or storyline conversation.
  • Email bodies will include the detected keyword and an inline view of the conversation for public communities. For private community conversations, a link to the detected conversation/message will be provided. Recipients must have access to the community to view the conversation.
