Updated June 30, 2023: We have updated the content for clarity. Thank you for your patience.
As we announced a few months ago, all Yammer surfaces will be undergoing a transformation and will now be known as Viva Engage. Users will experience the new Viva Engage branding across the remaining surfaces, including the website, integrations, SharePoint, Progressive Web App (PWA), embed, email notifications and email digest.
The last step remaining is the URL update, which will occur at the end of this year. We will provide more details as we get closer to that milestone. Our team is working tirelessly to ensure a seamless transition, minimizing disruption to your workflow. We appreciate your continued support and patience throughout this rebranding journey.
We have updated the previously shared rebranding toolkit to reflect the final timelines. This includes a range of templates, logos, and other resources to help communicate the change. The link to download the Viva-Engage-and-Yammer-rebrand-kit.zip can be found here.

| 2023-07-01 | MC How Affect | Website:
The Yammer website will begin to get rebranded to Viva Engage, it could take up to three weeks to fully release across all tenants. Yammer features will remain available, and users don’t have to execute any additional task to continue using them. When users access the website will be greeted with a welcoming dialog that will inform them of the brand name change. Once users dismiss the dialog, they will be able to access the rebranded experience. Please note that we have update the message on the announcement. The Microsoft 365 app launcher, also known as waffle, will also be rebranded and the Yammer logo and descriptions will be updated to Viva Engage. Progressive Web App (PWA): As soon as users open the PWA, they will get a prompt asking for their permission to reinstall the app. To receive the update, they will have to click 'OK.' The PWA will be named “Viva Engage (Yammer)” for a month and then “(Yammer)” will be removed in a future update. Integrations: Connector on Teams - Within the Teams feature, the Yammer connector can now be found under the Viva Engage brand so users can receive updates from their Viva Engage network. Power Automate - This integration will be renamed to Viva Engage, keeping all existent functionality. SharePoint & embed - All Yammer references will be replaced with Viva Engage URL The URL will remain the same, you can expect an update for this change towards the end of the calendar year. The notification addresses, such as “notifications@yammer.com” and “noreply@yammer.com” will change but such as the URL, these two will be updated at the end of this calendar year. | Website:
