Viva Engage admin center: Frequently asked questions

Who can access the Viva Engage admin center in the Viva Engage Teams application?

The following roles can access the Viva Engage admin center: Engage admin, Answers admin, corporate communicator, leader, and a leader’s delegate manager.

Can every role that has access to the Viva Engage admin center perform all configurations in it?

No. The configurations visible for each role in the Engage admin center depend on the administrative permissions for that role and the license held by the tenant. For example, a corporate communicator doesn't have access to governance and compliance-related settings. A corporate communicator can't create or manage campaigns if their tenant doesn't have a Viva Engage premium license.

Can I access the Yammer admin center for certain Engage admin configurations even if my organization doesn’t currently use Yammer?

Yes, if you have Engage admin permissions. Because Viva Engage is powered by Yammer technology, you still use certain admin configurations in Yammer to set up Viva Engage for your organization.

When admin changes are made in Yammer, are they reflected in Viva Engage?

Yes, because Viva Engage is powered through Yammer technology, changes made in the Yammer admin center affect Viva Engage.
