Article Overview
In this article, we will show you how to Manage your Feed within Amplify and how to make Custom Feeds
Part 1 - Creating Feeds:
In this section, we will show you how to create a new Feed
NOTE: Every account in Amplify has a default feed that is already configured. It will be set up to include a generic summary of things happening in the account. If you want more control over what users see in different feeds, you can create team feeds.
- To start, go to the Feed section on the left had side
- From there, click the 3 dots on the right hand side and then select 'Create New'
- Next, give the feed a Title, a description and then choose what teams will be shown this feed
-
Selecting teams
-
Next up is selecting the teams to assign to this feed. In Amplify, a team can have one default feed. This is the feed that defines which feed a team sees when they log into Amplify and load the feed, and what push notifications users in these teams get. All the teams you select in this stage will get this feed as their default feed.

Enabling feed post sources
-
Battles, Achievements, Endorsements, Birthdays, New Employee announcements and Journey Achievements make up the feed post sources, in addition to metrics and activity types. Sources are a common word for anything that can create a feed post in a feed.
In the section below, you are presented with the different types of sources and the possibility of selecting a custom team filter for each source. Note that by default, all sources have the teams assigned above as its default team filter. This means that if you want to show Battles from more teams than the one you assigned this feed to, you need to click Set custom team filter and choose either a selection of- or all teams.
