Using Jive for SharePoint Online and O365

Jive for SharePoint Online and Office 365 lets you synchronize a SharePoint site collection with a Jive group, and also provides the Jive for Office functionality that lets you edit collaboratively and interact with a Jive community from directly within an Office 365 document.

Documents uploaded to SharePoint online, either as uploaded documents to a Jive group or inside a linked folder in OneDrive for Business, will be available for preview in Jive. You can easily move between the Jive site and SharePoint storage, so you can leverage Jive's rich social functionality (with likes, comments, shares, badges and so on) as well as SharePoint's robust document management functionality.

You can also co-author Office 365 files directly from Jive or bring Jive to Office 365, across any device or operating system. Versioning, collaborative editing and social features become available in a side pane when you open your SharePoint-linked documents in Office 365.
