Hi All,
Greetings for the day!!!
Background
- As Stream (Classic) is transitioning to Stream (on SharePoint)
- Until Stream (classic) is retiring we can take decision which stream experience is appropriate for users in our organization
- We have setting in SharePoint admin center for default destination of the Stream tile in Microsoft 365 app launcher
Updating the setting for default destination for Stream tile in SharePoint admin center
- Navigate to SharePoint admin center
- We could navigate SharePoint admin center with following ways
- By direct URL – https://<tenant-name>-admin.sharepoint.com/ Example – https://knowledgejunction1-admin.sharepoint.com/_layouts/15/online/AdminHome.aspx#/home
- From Microsoft 365 admin center
- We have detailed article on how to navigate – SharePoint admin center – https://knowledge-junction.in/2022/12/07/small-tips-and-tricks-sharepoint-admin-center-how-to-navigate-to-sharepoint-admin-center/

- Since Stream (classic) is expiring its time to have either first or second option for Streams from the above settings
- We should start using new Streams – Streams (on SharePoint) ASAP if not started
- First option – “Automatically switch to the new Stream (on SharePoint) when recommended” is default one
- Default option means – If we select this option or don’t change it, then Microsoft will decide the default Stream experience when users select the Stream tile
