Include Yammer as a Office365 App like Planer
Connector or App Integration for Yammer

shared this idea
This request is still under review by the feature team. No additional details are available. I will keep asking and hope to have more details soon.

Agree with all the comments, the Yammer connector is less than useless! Most of our groups are private but we need to show them in the corresponding teams Team!

This is not the integration I was hoping for. I just want a yammer tab so that all conversations on a topic or a channel are in one place. Private, Public, External, shouldn't matter.
Whilst I like the idea of having yammer into a teams chat it has to be in both directions. A chat or reply in one should update the other. I realise this poses a significant request but the connector is just a half way house. Especially if you cant just click the notification to take you to the relevant tab. Teams should minimise application switching in my opinion. I agree with Julian, there are just too many chat streams.

No, the connector isn't enough at all. It is one way and not a proper integration. Bad enough that we have 3 different chat options (4 if you include consumer Skype, 5 if you include SharePoint discussions) but having no option to integrate them in the "new" interface that is being pushed so hard is unacceptable.

For our purposes a "simple" connector doesn't suffice.
I'd like to see Yammer integrated further, either as a tab option, or as Marcin Niczyporuk suggested, into the navigation pane. That would be awesome. -

Just tried the Yammer connector. It seems only 1 way from Yammer to Teams. And the new conversation from Yammer to Teams only a link instead of message content. The user experience is very poor.

I can't connect to private Groups though, so for my Idea it does not help ...

Hi Suphatra,
I'm sorry but the Yammer connector is realy poor.
You can add announcements for a specific group, post made by a specific person, post with a specifi hashtag.
But'its not possible to select à simple news without hashtag in a specific group.It will be interesting to add more parameters on this connector.
If you want that Teams became a Hub, we need to access more easyly other components of O365 directly from teams
Sorry for my English (I'm a Frenchie :-) )

Our Yammer has a lot of messages and they aren't all relevant for the team. We don't need all Yammer channel in the Teams chat.

Better integration of Yammer in Teams:
Possibility in the connector to select a group in order to receive all news and not only announcements or posts with a hashtag
Ability to add a Yammer tab to post directly to a Group since Team.
Today it is necessary to display the url of yammer in the tab it is not very pro -

I don't get why teams, yammer, and Lync? we use them all...and I never know which one to use. Why not merge them all into one thing?

i would not do it as suggested but merging these two social tools would prevent a spilt communication channel for my team and company.

We are looking at adopting yammer but want to limit the amount of places a person needs to look at for a project. Centralizing Yammer, Planner, Chat and files is very useful!

I agree, this would be useful to show that this all works together and that Teams is for private team conversations and Yammer is a public community tool.

Please, integrate "Yammer" with "Teams" as a separate panel just after "Meetings" and "Files" on the left navigation bar in "Teams"

Yeah I agree, we just got the whole company onto Yammer, be good to be able to push messages from/to Teams that are relevant.
