Starting September 11, 2023, adding Microsoft 365 Apps to Yammer/Viva Engage communities via Microsoft 365 connectors will no longer be supported. This functionality was limited to classic Yammer only and was not implemented in new Yammer.
[How this will affect your organization:]
- If you have any connectors added to your existing communities, they will stop working on September 11, 2023.
- Users and administrators will no longer receive updates in communities from previously configured connectors.
- There is no message loss expected – all past connector card messages will default to regular system messages.
- Users and administrators will not be able to add new connectors to the communities in their network.
[What you need to do to prepare:]
If you are actively using a connector on a community, consider replacing your connector usage with one of these options:
- Viva Engage connectors in Power Automate which are configured outside the community.
- Custom code using the Viva Engage (Yammer) REST API.-us/rest/api/yammer/rest-api-rate-limits.
