The handoff

A timely team message that points people to a profile change for review without treating it as verified or making decisions on someone’s behalf.

Keep in mind

Only monitor profiles and details your organization is authorized to access. Keep sensitive information out of broad channels, and have a person verify a change before acting on it.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Confirm access and monitoring scope

Choose only profiles and information the team is permitted to monitor, and document the reason for that scope.

Choose a suitable discussion channel

Select a Mattermost channel whose members are authorized to see the profile updates being shared.

Limit what a notification includes

Decide which details are useful and appropriate to share, especially when profile information may be personal or sensitive.

Review example changes

Test a profile update and check that the message is understandable, limited to the intended audience, and treated as a prompt for review.
