- 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.
- Creating feed sources for activity feeds
Inform users about events that are relevant to them by creating feed sources for messages from internal or external data sources. After you create a feed source, you can include it in a user activity feed.
- Configuring default feed sources
Ensure that users see only relevant Pulse posts by filtering feed sources that display Pulse messages by default.
- Configuring Pulse email notifications
In Pulse, you can choose to receive emails when another user references you, likes your messages, posts on your profile, posts comments on a conversation in which you are involved, or posts a comment on a case that you are following, provided that your application is configured to send emails.
- Collaborating with users by using spaces
By creating spaces, you gather users that are professionally connected within a single digital community, so that they can collaborate on specific areas of interest. When you restricting the discussion of certain topics to the users of a space, you can avoid broadcasting irrelevant messages to all users in your application. After joining a space, you can communicate with the members of the space by using Pulse.
