Is there a direct link to join a Viva Engage Community or a way to create a "Join" button in SharePoint

Is there a way to put a button on a SharePoint page that allows someone to join a Viva Engage community directly (without having to click through to the community and then click "Join"). The Viva Engage Web Part within SharePoint only seems to show a "View All" button at the top (which takes you to the Viva Engage community page, where they can click "Join") and embeds the conversations. I'm hoping to add a link or a button to our SharePoint page which, when clicked, has them join a Viva Engage community - is this possible?

    Hi

    It appears that there is no direct way to create a "Join" button on a SharePoint page that allows users to join a Viva Engage community without first navigating to the community page. The Viva Engage Web Part in SharePoint primarily provides a "View All" button, which directs users to the community page where they can then click "Join."

    Personally, I completely agree with you, this is indeed a good addition to the current features of SharePoint. Thank you for bringing things to our attention. We sincerely recommend you go to SharePoint Feedback community to provide your feedback: SharePoint · Community (microsoft.com). This is the best platform to let related team hear from you and make the products and services better for you and others.

    Thanks.
