What about direct messaging?

Hi colleagues,

Am I missing it or is it really not going to be in 1DX?

Thanks,

Kirill

The messaging feature will be very similar to what we have today (you can chat with members following you). We will not have public chat. Do you see a Send a Direct Message link from the widget that opens if you click your avatar in the header?

Just jumping in to the conversation, I tried that but received the following error.

Any additional authorization/roles required?

Hi Eng,

I guess this URL should be incorrect at this point. Messaging in the new platform got to be going under profiles system, people.sap.com

E.g. I found someone in answerhub or blogs, clicked his avatar, his profile opened and I sent him a message there.

Best regards,

Kirill.

Hi Caroleigh,

Thank you!

Nope, I can't send messages to myself, but other members, including those that aren't following me.

Best regards,

Kirill.
