Is it possible to get a link to a specific comment in a thread on Yammer?
I want to share a link to one comment, but I am only able to share or copy the link to the whole thread, which is not helpful for longer threads. All options to get a link (see red marks in the picture) just point to the whole thread, e.g.:
https://www.yammer.com/company/threads/12341234
The SHARE option does not give a link either, it just lets me share this thread in another group.
Is it possible to get a link to just one specific comment in a thread on Yammer?
Assuming you can obtain the message id of the specific comment (which are no different than any other post or update), then you can use the below URL to link directly to it.
https://www.yammer.com/{network}/messages/{id}
I don't have access to our Yammer network right now (away from my office) so I'm not able to comment on how you would obtain the message id.

In 2020 aprox Google introduced the option to pin an announcement at the top of the list (in the main page of the classroom), manually is an option inside the colon menu after you create an announcement.
I 'd need to use this option in a script, because I need to pin a document with rules in every classroom I have, but I can't find any reference in Classrooms API.
Can someone help me?
I do not believe this is possible programmatically at this time as there is no reference in the API to be able to do so with either announcements or course work materials, as you mentioned. I had looked to try to accomplish the same thing and came to the conclusion it's not yet supported. You could post this as a feature request in the Classroom issue tracker, I'm surprised I don't already see it there: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues?q=componentid:191645%20status:open
One alternate solution to make course work added via script easier to access as it gets pushed down the classroom feed is to make it posted to it's own topic:
https://developers.google.com/classroom/reference/rest/v1/courses.topics
Whenever I'm reviewing a Pull Request there is a certain user I want to tag in a comment, but when I type #Their-Name nothing pops up. The only work-around I've been able to find is I can add that user as a reviewer, then I am able to tag them in the comments. Is there some kind of setting that I can change on that user to have them always show up?
Unfortunately, this is by designed. Take a look at below part of leave comments in Review a pull request:
Comment inline in the Files tab in your pull request by selecting the
comment icon (Comment icon in a pull request). Leave feedback not tied
to a specific code change by commenting in the Overview tab.
Reply directly to the author or other reviewers by using
#username and reference work items using #workitemID in your
comments. You can also reference other pull requests using
!pullrequestID.
This is also make sense. As a workaround, you could configure automatically include code reviewers in branch Policy. After this setting, these reviewers are automatically added to pull requests that change files along those paths.
So you don't have to manually add that certain user as a reviewer of your pull request and you could directly #he in the comment.
How to make a share to download system?
Means the visitor must share the content on a social network to get the desired file.
eg.W3layouts.com I must share the article to download the file.
NB: No third party solution. I want to know how it work and create a new one
Thank you
I will just use Twitter as an example:
You would use a Twitter web intent to track the user's click on your widget to share whatever content you want shared, seen in this page: https://dev.twitter.com/web/javascript/events . Use the 'tweet' event to listen for when the user interacts with the button. When you've verified that this event has fired, call the function that downloads the file to the user's computer.
Another thing, take to Google before you go asking it on StackOverflow.
We used to use Yammer a while back and now we're getting back on it. Problem is that most people who used it previously have left and the content left over is irrelevant today. Is there a way through an API or something to delete all content and posts on our Yammer network?
Your help is appreciated.
There are APIs which will let you delete messages (https://developer.yammer.com/docs/messagesid), but customers tend to just start using Yammer again. The old content disappears off the bottom. In many cases there are nuggets of info that get turned in up searches later which prove to be useful. if you want additional API help it may be best to open Support Requests with Microsoft for assistance. The main support site is available, but you can open requests through the O365 Admin Portal.
A bit old but still a relevant question. My organisation wanted to do this and the advice from Microsoft Premier support was:
Verified admin can choose to use the "Remove users" option under Network Admin portal. The option of "Permanently remove this user and messages" lets you remove the user and all the messages they posted (*note: This cannot be reversed).
As an alternative, for bulk deletion, the Bulk update feature, data export along with the Rest API endpoints should help achieve this. And before starting to delete the content ensure to set the data retention policy as "Hard Delete".
• For deleting the users/files/messages/notes, use the export files' (messages.csv, files.csv and Pages.csv) which have the API URLs in it which can be called from within a powershell script for example. One will have to format and make a post request through powershell. Herewith I attached an sample script just for your reference.
(it is regarding user deletion but similar call applies)
messages.csv api_url https://developer.yammer.com/docs/messagesid
files.csv file_api_url https://developer.yammer.com/docs/uploaded_filesid
Pages.csv page_api_url https://developer.yammer.com/docs/uploaded_notesid
• For managing and removing yammer users – you could delete the users using bulk update feature.
You could get users list by performing an export: Network Admin > Export Users and Export all users. Then perform a "Bulk Update Users" with the above spreadsheet saved as a .csv file. Note that you'll need two columns in this spreadsheet. The first should be titled 'Action' and the second should be titled 'Email Address' (both without the quotes). Under action, you'll want to put 'Suspend' on every line and you'll have your users' email addresses from step 6 under 'Email Address'.
Go to Network Admin > Bulk Update Users and import that .csv file there (there's a sample Bulk Update file for reference at the page itself – it has more columns than you'll need, so just pay attention to the first two).
Is there any way to update an activity entity's create form's fields by using a dialog without saving the entity first?
Let me explain.
The customer calls us and our represent opens a phone call activity. At this point it's on a 'create new' state.
Now, since we have freaking many contact informations and other things related to it in the system I have created a dialog to help user to find out the caller's informations. The dialog first asks the name who is calling. Then it asks about which building / apartment he is calling (it's part of our business model). Then it keeps asking things for a while.
Finally, the dialog has gathered all necessary information and is about the put the values into the form.
But here's the thing. I'm using an Update process within the dialog, but of course I can't update something that doesn't exists. So at the moment it works like we always have to save and give a title for the entity first. Then run the dialog.
It's a minor fault but it may be a problem if, for some reason, in the middle of a dialog, the process is cancelled. Then we would have an empty phone call there with some title. Besides one extra click is always one extra click.
I hope you understood my question.
Please feel free to asks.
Bye!
Like Greg, it seems to me that you are trying to capture information about the contact and the phone call at the same time, so starting by opening a new record may not be the most structured way to go about this. A couple of possibilities:
use a dialog but don't run it against a Contact necessarily. Maybe run it against a user. Use the first few pages to establish if this is an existing Contact and if not, create one from data captured, then create the phone call record against the selected or created Contact. You can run a dialog like this from a link on a dashboard for example, you don't need to navigate to users screen to do it.
Gareth Tucker has written several articles on his blog at http://gtcrm.wordpress.com about contact centre automation, including some interesting ideas (with free downloadable examples) about using JScript on the phone call form to capture contact details and create a linked Contact record on the fly
It sounds to me like the business process could be improved. Ideally your solution would be to change your dialog process so that it runs against the customer (contact?) entity, i.e. when your customer calls up, users find that record and run your dialog instead of creating a phone call activity then running the dialog.
That said, if I understand your question correctly, you are using the dialog perhaps to assist the user in finding the customer's details. Is this true? I don't understand how this would work so you may need to provide us with some extra information here.
If the underlying issue is that the user can't find the customer, it sounds like you need to provide more search fields for the user in the customer view...
