Enabling users to post messages in the activity feed

Users can view an activity feed that aggregates all their important Pulse messages such as replies to their messages, messages on cases that they are following, messages in which they are referenced, profile messages, bookmarked messages, and application messages. This activity feed is displayed in the Case Manager and Case Worker portals when users click the Pulse menu option. You can enable users to post messages in the activity feed in a context. For example, a user can make release announcements in the context of the application, which will be visible to all the users of the application.

  1. Include the pxFeed section within the section or harness in which you want to display the activity feed.
  2. Configure the pxFeed section to allow users to post messages in the activity feed:
    1. On the Design tab of the section or harness in which you want to display the activity feed, click the pxFeed section.
    2. Click the Gear icon to open the Layout Properties panel.
    3. On the Parameters tab, select Enable post under Configure post context.
    4. In the Name field, enter a description of the context in which you want to allow users to post messages in their activity feed.
    5. In the Key field, enter a key value to define the context. For example, enter Application.pxInsName for application context.
    6. Click Submit.
  3. Click Save.
