For example, you can configure a Pulse feed to display messages between team or department members.In the header of Dev Studio, click .
In the Pulse feed record configuration section, in the Label field, enter a short description for the feed source that you want to create.
In the Apply to field, select a class to which this feed source applies.
In the Add to ruleset field, select the name of the ruleset that contains the feed source.
Click Create and open.
In the Feed label field, enter a description for the new feed.
