Outlook Online How Tos

When you've installed Jive Anywhere with Jive for Outlook Online, it's easy to participate in a Jive community without ever leaving Outlook Online.

Task How to Notes
Interact with community content from your inbox. Notification emails from Jive content are shown in a Jive-like view that lets you click Comment or Reply, or like any activity. Just click to interact within the email: your interactions will be synced to the community for others to see, and replies will come back to your email inbox.  
Mark content for Action or as a decision Click Actions on an item or a comment/reply, and select from the menu.  
Bring external emails into a community by converting them to Jive discussions. Select the email and click Convert to Discussion in the Jive pane to the left of the email. You'll be prompted to choose a location for the discussion. If it's enabled in your community, you'll also have the option to upload attachments and images from the conversation. Participants who are members of the community will get a notification that you posted the email as a discussion. Including attachments and images also requires the Jive for Office Online integration. If you're interested in that option, you can contact your community manager.
View profile information about participants in an email conversation In the Jive pane to the left of the email, the email sender or another community member's profile information is displayed. Select a different user from the menu to change the information displayed. All the participants who have a community profile will be selectable. Only community members will have profile information displayed. Other participants won't be selectable.
