Updates

Now you can share an update in MangoApps to one or more custom created team segments without having to enter all the team names. Additionally, you can share the same update with multiple teams without having to make a copy of the update using the CC feature.

Team segments are a collection of teams. Creating these collections allows the internal comm team to target communications for multiple teams. Domain & intranet admins can share an update or ask a question to one or more custom created team segments without having to enter all the team names in the CC list.

Sharing updates & questions with team segments

  1. Network admins only or Network & company admins can share updates, ask questions to a pre-defined collection of teams called team segments (admin portal > users > team segments > settings > who can use team segments).

  2. Team segments (rule based or a list of fixed teams) can be used when you have to share an update / ask a question to the same set of teams often.

  3. Multiple team segments can also be combined when sharing an update / question.

Sharing updates with multiple teams in CC list

You can share an update with multiple teams (in CC) without making copies of the same update.

Teams in the CC list is a personalized list and will include teams in which the user is a member of private teams where non-members are allowed to share an update/ask a question and all public teams. Any team that can't be @mentioned will not be included in the CC list of teams.

Comments Consolidated

When an update/question is shared with multiple teams using the new CC option, it will now not make a copy of the update/question for every team. It will consolidate all reactions, comments, answers and read acknowledgements.

You can ask a question to multiple teams (in CC) and keep all answers from different teams consolidated on the same question thread.

Notification Impact

With the newsfeed, you never have to worry about missing an important update or piece of information. You can completely configure your newsfeed to best suit your workflow.

Comments/replies/answers posted on the update/question will be notified in real-time to members of the 'To' team (as per their notification preferences). CC team members will not be notified, but will have access to view all the comments/replies/answers (& reactions) on the update/question.

Users who are @mentioned in the update/question/comment/reply/answer will always be notified (as before) irrespective of their TO/CC team membership. Any number of teams can be included in the CC list.
