Similar to a social media platform, the Newsfeed is where all participants can share their thoughts, announcements, and post official recognition messages. Posts are visible to everyone.
Let’s explore the Newsfeed a little more, so you can maximize the value of your recognition program!

To filter posts, click on the three little dots to the right of the Newsfeed bar.
