      What are streams?

      Streams are a grouping of modules within the app. As an Admin, it’s a way to organize your content in user feeds. Without streams, all modules will be in a vertically scrollable list in-app for your employees. A stream is similar to an Instagram carousel where similar modules are in a horizontally scrollable list, indicating that they are somehow related to other modules.

      Some streams possess five (5) modules, whereas others may contain 10+. Keep in mind that streams are just a way to organize content in-feed. No matter how many modules you have in a stream, you can re-arrange the order in which they appear by dragging the modules around in the ‘edit stream’ page. 

      Here are some ideas for Streams we’d recommend you build out for your team:

      How to build a stream

      Follow these five (5) simple steps to build a stream of your own:

      1. Visit the streams tab of the menu. 
      2. Click ‘Create new stream.’ 
      3. Name the stream and click ‘Create Stream.’
      4. Select the modules that you want to live in this stream from the ‘Available Modules’ dropdown. Remember that modules can appear in multiple streams (not recommended).
      5. By clicking on the modules in the ‘Reorder Modules’ area, you can drag and drop them in the preferred order you’d like.  

      On the Streams page, you can edit a pre-existing Stream. Click on the name, and it will take you to the edit page. To remove a module from a stream, click on the trash can icon (right of their name) in the ‘Reorder Modules’ section of the page. 

      Until a Stream has at least one module in it, it will not appear in-app.
