Edit Viva Connections Resources

Resources provide links to the most popular portals and destinations at your organization and can be found below the dashboard of the Connections experience. Operators and members can import navigational links from a SharePoint home site or global navigation bar, or create their own links, which can all be targeted to specific audiences. Any edits made to the resource section will also show in the mobile experience.

Note

  1. Navigate to the Resources section within your Connections experience and select Edit.

  2. To add a new link, select + Add Link.

  3. In the Add a Link window that opens, paste the link to the site in the URL field.

    • Only modern SharePoint sites and certain Microsoft 365 experiences display in Teams. All other types of content open in a separate browser window.
  4. Enter a Display name.

  5. Under Thumbnail, select a choice to represent your resource link.

    • Auto-selected: the icon is generated based on the URL, if applicable (a link icon displays by default if one can't be autogenerated).

    • Custom: upload your own image as an icon by selecting Change and uploading your image (the image will resize to fit the icons dimensions).

    • Icon: choose an icon from a preexisting list by selecting edit icon.

  6. To apply audience targeting to this resource, enter one or more Microsoft 365 groups in the Audiences to target field (up to 10 audiences can be targeted). Learn more about audience targeting for resources.
