Topic contributors groups

Question

We want to assign a few people from different department the role of topic contributor. However, we do not see the option to group topics. Now all topic contributors can edit all topics. Is it possible to create a group of topics for specific topic contributors?

Hi @Sophie van Noort,

Thank you for posting in this community.

According to your case description, I do understand how frustrated you are now.

Nonetheless, according to the official file, I feel regretful to inform you that it seems that Microsoft Viva Topics doesn't support grouping topics for specific topic contributors. All topic contributors in your organization can edit any topic by default.

If you want to learn more about user permissions and roles in Microsoft Viva Topics, you can check out the references below:

• Plan for Microsoft Viva Topics: User permissions
• Topic experiences roles: Topic contributor and Topic viewer

Please accept my sincerely apologizes for any inconvenience this may casue. Thank you for your kind understanding.
