Add or edit workplace default subscriptions

You can use workplace default subscriptions to require users to auto-follow mandatory feeds in the digital workplace. They cannot unfollow those feeds. 

Considerations

  • Calendar feeds: Currently, you cannot set up a workplace default subscription for users to auto-follow a calendar feed. 

Who can do this?

  • Workplace administrators
