Explore the platform

To access shared content on your platform, go to your organization's login page. If it’s your first time logging in, you’ll need to create an account.

Once logged in, you'll be redirected to your admin's selected home view.

The interface layout may vary depending on the modules activated by your platform administrator.


Interface with all modules enabled

Platform modules

Your platform interface includes seven modules:

The Home page is a portal-like entry page that displays the latest updates posted by your organization.

The News Feed gathers all posts from the groups you’ve joined and private messages shared with one or more users.

The Chat allows you to communicate and share information instantly with one or more users on your platform.

The Drive is a shared storage space for organizing and accessing all files (images, audio, video, documents, etc.) stored on the platform. You also get a personal, secure storage area.

The Events module is a shared calendar for scheduling meetings, inviting others to video calls or webinars, and organizing your work time.

The Projects module is a tool for managing and tracking personal or group-related projects.

The App Directory lets you create a catalog of third-party tools and apps you use daily and access them quickly.

You can also easily find:

other users via the User Directory,

groups via the Group Directory.

⚠️ Some modules may not be activated, depending on your organization's setup. Don’t hesitate to contact your platform administrators if you're interested in a particular module.

Complete your profile

To get off to a good start, we recommend completing your profile. A filled-out profile makes communication easier with colleagues, as you’ll be easier to identify and find on the platform.

To edit your profile information, go to Profile and Preferences under your profile picture, then click on Information. See how to complete your profile in this article.


Here, you can enter your contact information and other details (key to helping your colleagues understand your role) that will appear on your profile.

You can also:

update your login credentials under Login,

add a profile picture and cover image in Photo,

fill in your position in the organizational chart to help build your organization’s org chart ( Org chart section).

Customize your platform

In the Preferences section, you can change settings related to your account, such as:

the platform’s language,

notifications to your liking.

Set up your notifications

To stay informed of new activity on your platform, several types of notifications can be customized:

Browser/Desktop app notifications,

Push notifications (mobile),

Email notifications

It’s important to set your notifications properly. Too few alerts may lead to missing important info, while too many could overwhelm you.

To configure your notifications, go to the Profile and Preferences menu, under Notifications. You can enable or disable individual notification types and also set working hours and quiet periods.

More info is available in this article.

Enable the read/unread mode

The Read/Unread mode allows you to manually manage which posts you’ve read, helping ensure you don’t miss any content.

Enabling this option also activates a Unread tab in your News Feed.

Learn more about the Read/Unread mode in this article.

Discover registered users via the Directory

You can view a user profile from the News Feed, the Chat, or the User Directory.

To open the user directory, click Users in the left-hand side menu.

This directory includes all users registered on the platform and provides access to their profiles as well as the company org chart.

You can also search for users using specific criteria (role, location, group, etc.) by typing your query into the directory search bar.


💡 You can combine multiple criteria in your search. For example, you could search for all users based in Paris who speak English.

Once you've found the right person, you can instantly send them a chat message or start a video call directly from this view by selecting the type of communication you want.

Access topic-based collaboration spaces

Groups are spaces for sharing information and collaborating on key or specific topics. They gather members (known as “Group Members”) and can also temporarily include guests, referred to as guests.

Each group has a visual identity, title, description, and access level. They can be managed by one or more group managers.

💡 Want to keep an eye on a group’s activity without receiving constant notifications? You can enable the “Unfollow” option. You won’t get notified about new activity in that group, but you’ll still be able to access its content at any time.

The Group Directory

To get an overview of your organization’s groups, go to the group directory.


_⚠️_ Secret groups you are not a member of will not be visible here.

You can filter the view to display your groups, groups you manage, groups followed in your news feed, or your favorite groups using the filters in the upper right corner.

Join a group

From the group directory, you can join a group in different ways depending on the group’s privacy settings:

For an open group, simply click “Join,”

For a visible private group, you’ll need to request access and wait for approval from an authorized member,

💡 You can only join a hidden private group (secret group) by invitation.

Find out more about joining groups in this article.

Create a group

From the group directory, you can also create a group (if this option has been enabled by an administrator).

Simply click Create a group and fill in the relevant group details.

Learn more about group creation in this article.

You’re now all set to use your Talkspirit platform!
