Changing your online status

Your online status, appearing as a color indicator on your profile picture, profile card, and profile page, signals your current availability to other users in your digital workplace. A short, customizable text description accompanies the color indicator.

Considerations

  • Customizing workplace online text: An enterprise administrator or workplace administrator can customize the status text for the entire digital workplace. See Customizing workplace online status text.
  • Automatic updating of status: Once you set your online status, it will stay on that status until you sign out of your digital workplace or select a different status. After 15 minutes of being signed out of your digital workplace, your status will display as Offline to other users. When you sign back in, your status will default to the last set status.

Who can do this?

  • Any digital workplace member
