How to remove or leave a Viva community?

Good day Suzanne, 

I understand that the same community appears twice in your Viva Engage list and you would like to remove the duplicate entry or leave the community. 

Please try the following: 

Option 1: Clear your browser cache  

A stored browser cache can sometimes cause duplicate items to appear. 

Open your browser > Open your browser settings > Select Privacy, search and services > Clear all browsing data > Set the time range to All time.  

Ensure cookies, cache and saved sessions are selected.  

Sign out of all accounts in the browser afterward.  

Then, sign back in to Viva Engage and check whether the issue persists. 

Option 2: Remove the community from Favorites 

If you want to keep the community but remove the duplicate appearance: 

Open the community in Viva Engage. 

Select the filled heart icon in the community header. 

Once the heart becomes unfilled, the community is removed from Favorites and will only appear in your regular community list. 

Option 3: Leave the community 

Open the community in Viva Engage. 

Select More options in the community header > Select Leave community > Confirm your choice. 

Please note that membership changes may take some time to be reflected across Viva Engage. 

Option 4: Contact the community administrator 

If the Leave community option isn't available, please contact the community or IT administrator and ask them to remove your account from the community. 

Note: In case you do not know who is your IT admin, kindly refer to this article: How do I find my Microsoft 365 admin? - Microsoft Support  

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out at any time. 

Thank you for your patience and understanding.
