III. What administrators need to know

Administrators can perform the following steps by clicking Settings in Workplace: 

Share information

Administrators can set up the carousel banner to display organization announcements, promotional news, and bulletins in rotation. 

Go to Carousel Banner page and click the toggle next to Enable carousel banner to turn it on.

Upload banner images. Previews for desktop and mobile are shown on the right.

Edit the banner image and configure the redirect link for the image.

If there are multiple images, you also need to set the carousel interval.

Add apps for members

Administrators can add apps or links to the common app section to give members easy access to these apps. 

Go the Admin-picked Apps page and click Go to Settings to enter the Feishu Admin Console.

In the Feishu Admin Console, click Add Rule to personalize which apps to display for different members or departments. For example, you can add the payslip app for the finance team and attendance apps for HR.

Fill in Note, select who to apply the rule to, and add the apps to be displayed. To add web links instead of apps, click Add Link and configure the name, link, and icon to be added.

Configure app grouping

If not all the apps can fit onto the Workplace interface, you can group them by functionality to make it easier for members to browse.

Go to the Custom app groups page and click Go to Settings to enter the Feishu Admin Console.

In the Feishu Admin Console, click Add Category, select the apps you want to add to the group, and save. Then click the toggle next to Custom classification to turn it on.
