Authoring Overview

Sparrow is an omnichannel publishing system, which means, when content is created, it is immediately available across every Sparrow channel.  This means whether you publish from the Admin Portal, SharePoint, Microsoft Teams, or Mobile, the following happens:

  1. The post becomes available from SharePoint via Sparrow Post Viewer components, for the audiences you’ve selected. 
  2. Chatbot Notifications are sent to all Microsoft Teams users in the selected audience, notifying them of the post. The post is available on Microsoft Teams with the My Sparrow tab and the News Central tab. 
  3. Mobile notifications are sent to all Sparrow mobile users in the selected audience, notifying them of the post (which is also available on the Sparrow Mobile app).
  4. If users who are in the selected audiences don’t read the post within the configured amount of time, it will be included in their personalized Sparrow newsletter (assuming it has been turned on in the Sparrow Admin Portal).
