About Mode integration

Viva Goals Mode integration lets you link your OKRs to reports in Mode for automatic real-time updates on your objectives.

For example, say you have an objective to increase user adoption to a certain feature by 30 percent. You can directly link this objective to the relevant data in a Mode report. Whenever there's an update in the report, your OKR status gets automatically updated.

With Mode integration, Viva Goals offers flexibility and real-time clarity in your company’s OKR journey.

All users and admins have access to this integration. Admins have permissions to manage the integration from the admin dashboard.
