Change or update your profile information
- Click on your user profile image in the upper right hand corner, then go to View profile.
- On your profile, you'll see an Edit icon (pencil) in each section. Click the icon to edit any given value. Note that App managers can choose what fields you can or cannot edit, and if your org is using a syncing source to populate your profile data, you won't be able to overwrite the values yourself in your profile.
Configure Social Links on Your Profile
Add or edit links to your professional or social accounts, such as LinkedIn, Twitter, or Facebook, so colleagues can connect with you outside the intranet. Availability and visibility of these links may depend on your organization’s admin settings.
Previously, all users could freely add and edit their social links. While this provided flexibility, it also created challenges for organizations that required consistency, compliance, or branding alignment.
With this enhancement, app managers can now:
Decide whether social links should be displayed at all.
Control whether employees can edit their own social links or if only app managers can manage them.
This ensures profile information stays accurate, compliant, and consistent across the intranet.
How It Works
-
Manage app settings to control the display and editability of social links. These individual settings allow flexibility in controlling which social link to display or hide.
- Display and Edit functionality works as below
-
Display = OFF
User-editable is automatically set to OFF.
App managers can add social links, but standard users cannot.
Added links remain hidden on the profile.
If all fields have Display = OFF, the “Add social links” option will not appear on profiles.
- Display = ON
-
User-editable can be toggled ON or OFF.
If User-editable = ON → Standard users can add or edit their own social links.
If User-editable = OFF → Only app managers can add links.
-
-
Display = OFF
Added links are visible on profiles.
Note:
Provisioning and syncing of social links through any source is not supported yet. This enhancement is supported on both web and mobile app
