The features available in the Viva Engage admin center before this rollout will continue to be available after the rollout for now. The assignment of corporate communicators will continue to be managed through the admin center.
This dashboard will be available by default. The dashboard will continue to evolve as we iterate and enhance its capabilities. Stay tuned for more updates.
What you need to do to prepare:
This rollout will happen automatically by the specified dates with no admin action required before the rollout. Review your current configuration to determine the impact for your organization. You may want to notify your users about this change and update any relevant documentation.
