News
Publish targeted, engaging SharePoint news for every audience.
We take News further than basic publishing. Our News feature lets you target content precisely by audience, ensuring the right people see the right information every time. Use metadata to vary content by department, site, or language, and combine it with modern audiences to reach the right employees with the right message, without flooding everyone else's feed. Teams commonly use News for a global company feed, entity or site-specific announcements, onboarding welcomes, upcoming events, CSR and DEI campaigns, and product or project updates. Pin your most important articles so they always appear first, auto-generate a table of contents for longer posts, and surface related articles that share the same metadata to encourage deeper reading. A one-click copy button pushes any article to another SharePoint site, which is ideal for relaying group news to a subsidiary or local intranet, and automatic or instant translation makes every post readable in any language your teams use. My Subscriptions lets each employee manage their own content preferences, which cuts information overload and boosts engagement, while a Viva-powered comment feed replaces native SharePoint comments for richer discussion on every article.
Frequently asked questions about Jint.
How does SharePoint News targeting work in Jint?
You tag news items with metadata (department, location, role) and Jint displays each story only to the audiences it's relevant to, so employees never scroll past information that isn't for them.
Can employees manage which topics they see?
Yes, through My Subscriptions employees choose the topics they care about and automatically receive the latest related content, which cuts information overload.
What kind of news can we publish beyond company announcements?
Teams commonly use News for onboarding welcomes, upcoming events, CSR and DEI campaigns, product launches, and cross-site updates from a specific business unit or location.
Can News integrate with Teams or Viva Engage?
Yes, published news can be shared directly to Microsoft Teams channels or Viva Engage communities, extending its reach beyond the intranet.
Does News support multiple sites or business units?
