Social Media Tiles in SAP Fiori LaunchpadLocate this document in the navigation structure

You can initiate collaboration in SAP Fiori apps and access SAP Jam directly by adding social media-related tiles to your SAP Fiori launchpad.


SAP Jam Group Tiles

You can add a Group tile for any SAP Jam group you belong to on your launchpad. You use the social media catalog to find your SAP Jam groups and define tiles for the groups you want to see on your launchpad. Tile content is updated every five minutes.

The following is displayed for each SAP Jam group tile displayed on the launchpad:
  • Group name
  • Group type, displayed as an icon
  • Time since last activity in the group

SAP Jam Notifications Tile

You can add a tile to your launchpad to see notifications received in your SAP Jam account. The Notifications tile shows the content of new notifications in 10-second intervals. It can scroll through up to 10 new notifications. Tile content is updated every five minutes. If there are no new notifications, the tile displays the message "You are all caught up". For each notification, the tile displays the following:
  • Notification sender's name and profile photo
  • Notification type
  • Notification message
  • Group name if the notification is related to a group

Using the Social Media Catalog

You can use the social media catalog to define SAP Jam-related tiles for the SAP Fiori launchpad. As other SAP Fiori-related catalogs, the social media catalog is associated with a PFCG role. To use this catalog, you must first create the catalog, then assign it to the PFCG role. If required, you can create a new role; however, to see your Group tiles you will first need to assign yourself to the new role, then associate the social media catalog to it.
