Enabling users to post messages in the activity feed
Enable users to post messages in an activity feed for a specific context. For example, a user can make release announcements in the context of an application for all the application users to see.
Users can view their activity feeds in the Case Manager and Case Worker portals when they click the Pulse menu option.
This procedure applies to standard Pega Platform applications. For applications based on Cosmos React, see Configuring Pulse feed sources for Cosmos React.
