filters for selecting the activity type, time range, and how results are calculated (sum or average).

Creating a Team

Depending on the Community settings, teams can be created by all participants or only by the Community Manager.

When you select Create team, you will see a form with:

team name,
description,
team image/icon.

Team privacy and visibility settings

Each team has privacy settings that allow you to decide what other Community members can see.

You can choose to show or hide:

Team members list
If disabled, only team members will see who is part of the team.
Team activity leaderboard
If disabled, only team members will see the internal ranking.

Team access control

There are three access modes:

Team settings

In the team settings section, you can:

edit the team name and description,
manage privacy and visibility,

Teams in Events

Team functionality also includes support for team-based Events.

Joining events

For a team to participate in an event, each team member must accept participation in that Community Event.
If someone does not accept, their activity will not count towards the team’s score.

Team formation

Every team event has a required minimum team size.
Example: if the minimum is 5 members, your team must have 5 accepted participants to take part.

You will see statuses like “Forming team 1/5” in the leaderboard.

Score calculation methods

There are two scoring methods in team events:

Total team activity – all activity points are summed.
Average team activity – total activity divided by the number of team members.

The team leaderboard is displayed below the individual event leaderboard.

Summary

Teams allow Community members to:

collaborate and communicate within smaller groups,
track shared results and activity,
participate in team-based challenges,
manage visibility and access to the group.

Teams make it easier to compete and stay engaged within a Community.
