Office 365 Collaboration How Tos

With Jive for SharePoint Online and Office 365, you have access to real-time, interactive editing of Office docs.

Note: Jive for Office 365 collaborative editing will only work for Office documents that reside in a Jive place connected to a SharePoint Online site. Make sure you're logged in to Office365 before you begin, and that you have Jive Anywhere installed in your browser.
Warning: Moving files from one Jive-linked site collection to another, or from one SharePoint-linked Jive group to another, is not supported.
Task How to Notes
Create an Office 365 document that is linked to a Jive community. Upload a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint document to a Jive group that's linked to SharePoint Online. Or, upload the document to a Jive-linked site in SharePoint. (Your files should be located in a folder called Jive Documents.) Ask your community manager for the correct locations in Jive and SharePoint Online.
Open an Office 365 document for editing from the Jive preview page Navigate to the document and click Edit this document in Office 365 at the top of the preview pane. If you're logged into Office 365 and have Jive Anywhere connected to your community, you should see the Jive pane to the right of your document in Office Online.
Like, rate, or comment on content linked in Jive, or reply to existing comments. When you open a Jive-linked document in Office 365 or SharePoint, the Jive pane on the right lets you interact the same way you do in Jive. (If you are using the desktop version of Office 365, you'll have to install the Jive for Office desktop connector to get this functionality.) Comments, likes, and ratings will be synced back into the community.
Mark a comment for Action, or give it an outcome badge like Success. Under the comment, select Actions and then the mark you prefer.  
Compare an Office 365 document with a previous version uploaded by you or another user. In the Jive pane, click on an earlier version under Versions.  
See who else is working on the document at the same time and collaborate with them. Under Online Collaborators in the Jive pane, you'll see information about other people who have opened the document and are working in it. You can contact them directly to discuss, or wait till they upload changes and then merge your changes with theirs.
