00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:03,670
[Autogenerated] Let's start by really

2
00:00:03,670 --> 00:00:07,000
learning what is a SharePoint homesite,

3
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:09,730
and what features does it bring for your

4
00:00:09,730 --> 00:00:13,710
users? SharePoint has been used as a

5
00:00:13,710 --> 00:00:17,150
company portal solution by organizations

6
00:00:17,150 --> 00:00:20,960
for many years, and in fact, when you see

7
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:24,370
many works for top worldwide intra NICs,

8
00:00:24,370 --> 00:00:27,640
there is always a few that run on top of

9
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:31,530
SharePoint. Also, I always say that the

10
00:00:31,530 --> 00:00:35,340
Internet is the front door to your digital

11
00:00:35,340 --> 00:00:38,640
workplace and the place that people go to

12
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:41,740
in order to see the latest company news

13
00:00:41,740 --> 00:00:45,220
access policies and your different tools

14
00:00:45,220 --> 00:00:48,440
that you need in order to get the job done

15
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,950
on a day to day basis. SharePoint

16
00:00:51,950 --> 00:00:55,260
homesites were released by Microsoft in

17
00:00:55,260 --> 00:00:59,980
2019 and to read the definition directly

18
00:00:59,980 --> 00:01:03,460
by Microsoft SharePoint homesites are the

19
00:01:03,460 --> 00:01:06,610
landing sites for your organization that

20
00:01:06,610 --> 00:01:10,440
bring together news events, content,

21
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,650
conversation and video to deliver an

22
00:01:13,650 --> 00:01:16,270
engaging experience that reflects your

23
00:01:16,270 --> 00:01:21,310
voice, your priorities and your brand. Now

24
00:01:21,310 --> 00:01:23,450
you might think that any sharp in

25
00:01:23,450 --> 00:01:27,380
communication site can do that. However,

26
00:01:27,380 --> 00:01:32,030
designating a site as a homesite brings a

27
00:01:32,030 --> 00:01:35,650
unique set of benefits, ranging from the

28
00:01:35,650 --> 00:01:38,930
SharePoint mobile app to integrations with

29
00:01:38,930 --> 00:01:42,730
Microsoft teams. Let's go through each one

30
00:01:42,730 --> 00:01:47,050
of those four benefits in detail. First of

31
00:01:47,050 --> 00:01:49,930
all, once you designate a site as a

32
00:01:49,930 --> 00:01:53,620
homesite, a home icon appears in the

33
00:01:53,620 --> 00:01:56,950
SharePoint Mobile app, allowing the user

34
00:01:56,950 --> 00:02:00,730
to go to the home site with only one click

35
00:02:00,730 --> 00:02:03,280
from wherever they are in the sharp in

36
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:07,400
mobile app. This way, anytime a user is in

37
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,420
there, they have a quick, simple way to

38
00:02:10,420 --> 00:02:14,350
get to your internet. Next up, the

39
00:02:14,350 --> 00:02:18,460
homesite has a unique search capability

40
00:02:18,460 --> 00:02:22,420
that by default, the search cope searches

41
00:02:22,420 --> 00:02:26,330
across the tenant, where, as you can only

42
00:02:26,330 --> 00:02:28,990
search the current site in a normal

43
00:02:28,990 --> 00:02:32,650
communication site, you can see this in

44
00:02:32,650 --> 00:02:35,680
the picture on the right. In the search

45
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,690
part, you have search in SharePoint, where

46
00:02:39,690 --> 00:02:42,580
in normal Sykes, you only have searched

47
00:02:42,580 --> 00:02:46,500
this site. Next up, the homesite

48
00:02:46,500 --> 00:02:52,340
automatically becomes. This means that

49
00:02:52,340 --> 00:02:55,530
news will have a visual cue showing they

50
00:02:55,530 --> 00:02:59,180
are an official source exactly as we have

51
00:02:59,180 --> 00:03:02,020
seen in the previous module under

52
00:03:02,020 --> 00:03:06,510
organization new sites. Lastly, with Home

53
00:03:06,510 --> 00:03:09,390
Sykes, you can bring the power of your

54
00:03:09,390 --> 00:03:13,850
internet directly in Microsoft teams. This

55
00:03:13,850 --> 00:03:17,820
is done by the homesite app feature, which

56
00:03:17,820 --> 00:03:21,170
allows you to create a team's personal app

57
00:03:21,170 --> 00:03:24,090
that embeds the homesite, and it can be

58
00:03:24,090 --> 00:03:27,140
deployed to Microsoft teams for your

59
00:03:27,140 --> 00:03:30,640
users. This feature was announced at

60
00:03:30,640 --> 00:03:35,410
Microsoft Ignite in September 2020 and

61
00:03:35,410 --> 00:03:38,870
unfortunately, it's not yet released at

62
00:03:38,870 --> 00:03:48,000
the time of recording the scores, but it might be out by the time you listen to it.
