ConnexionViva Goals: Changes to Members’ Listing in Organization and Team Administration pages
As part of our continued efforts to improve customer experience in Viva Goals, we are bringing in a few changes to how members of organizations and teams are listed in the admin pages in Viva Goals.
In March 2023, we rolled out a feature that allowed Viva Goals team admins to add an AAD group as members to a team. As part of this feature, org admins can also add multiple groups as members to an organization. As groups can now be added as members of an organization/team, we will soon be launching an updated members listing page that will list both individuals and groups as members of an organization or team.

When this will happen:
Standard Release: We will begin rolling out in mid-May 2023 and expect to complete rollout by late May 2023.
How this will affect your organization:
- With the launch of the improved members listing pages, organization admins will be able to view and manage all individual members and groups that are added to their Viva Goals organization in a single list in the Admin > Members page.
- Team admins will also be able to view and manage the individual members and groups added to their teams in a single list in the Team Members page.
- Admins will be able to expand the groups by clicking on them to see all members in a group. Alternately, they can also search for a member (even those who are part of a group) from the search bars in the respective members pages.
- Searching for a member will return all search results directly from AAD (Similar to the search function in MS Teams). Upon clicking on more options, admins will be able to know whether a particular member is already part of the organization or team or not.
At the team level, if a user in the search result is already part of the team, the more options button will let team admins make the user a team admin or remove the team member from the team. If the user is not part of the team, the team admin can then add the user to the team.
What you need to do to prepare:
At the organization level, if a user in the search results is already part of the organization, the more options button will also let admins perform actions such as assigning admin role, changing user type from observer to regular and vice versa, removing a user and deleting a user. If a user is not part of the organization, the more options button will let admins add the user to the organization.
Please reach out to your Viva account representative if you have any questions. If you do not have a Viva account representative assigned to you, you can reach us by creating a support ticket in Microsoft Admin Center.
