Are you interested in starting a discussion or sharing your expertise but are not sure how to get started?
Here are a few tips to consider when creating your post:
Make it personal
- Don’t just ask a question - share why you are asking the question. Are you working on a new project or trying to find a more efficient way to do something?
Provide context
- Explain what you know and have already tried. If you explain what you have already tried, others will not spend time suggesting it to you.
Add supporting visuals
- The community has an array of functionality to share supporting visuals including code snippets, images, and more.
Make it easily consumable
- Be as concise as possible. Try to follow this outline for all new discussions and replies: Introduction, Context, and Question/Answer
Promote peer interaction
- Ask for replies about what others think or encourage others to share their experiences with the topic.
- When replying to a post, do not forget to leverage the @ mention functionality to directly address the author and/or any contributors or to bring another expert into the discussion. This will send a direct notification to the intended recipient.
Label your post
- Labels are required for all new discussions to assist in search optimization. You can click multiple labels but be sure to select the most relevant options.
Be responsive
- If a fellow member responds to your post, be sure to respond back to keep the conversation going. Even a simple thank you or Kudo goes a long way!
