e-Tweeter
e-Tweeter is the more social part of the Loop. If you want to recognize an accomplishment, send a quick reminder about an upcoming event or due date, or provide a link to a specific page – this is the perfect way to communicate this.
You will need to have administrative access to “tweet”, if you need access, please submit a ticket by visiting the IT department page, or clicking on Service/Support Requests in Quick Links to request access. (As of 7/28/2023 everyone with access to tweet must have an Excela account, which can be created by IT. This will be remedied in a future release when everyone has an Independence Health System account.)
*For eTweeter Admins Only.
If you have admin access, here are the steps to create a tweet
3. Click the Lock/Admin icon to open the Login screen
4. Use your Independence Health System network login and password
5. Before tweeting, you will need to update your photo in the My Profile section. (You will only need to complete this step one time).
Choose “My Profile” (You may not see all other options, but you should see “My Profile” and “eTweet” at a minimum).
After selecting “My Profile” you will see the following screen. Name/Title/Email will automatically populate. At this time, only the Photo Image can be uploaded. Please select a professional looking photo of yourself (and only yourself) in good lighting. If you do not have an appropriate looking photo, you may use your badge photo from UKG. (To save your badge photo, login to UKG (Ultipro) and right click on your employee photo located on the main page of “Myself” and choose “Save Image As”. You can choose the location of your choice to save your picture.)
*Your e-tweeter photo must be a headshot photo of you. It should not include other people, pets, flowers, etc.
Click Upload Image and then select the image from your computer. Be sure to click the checkmark in the green box to save your photo! Then... “Save My Profile Changes” so your new profile page is saved!
6. Once logged into the editor, you will select eTweet.
7. Click on “Create New eTweet”
To begin creating your eTweet, click on the Link icon if you’re adding a link. Copy and paste the link that you need. Type the text that you want your link to be displayed as and you can also add a title! Make sure to hit ‘Save’!
-You can tweet up to a maximum of 280 characters.
-You can add a link to another intranet page or a webpage by clicking the “link” icon. Copy and paste the link that you are saving. Type the words that will be linking to your URL and you may add a title as well. Click ‘Save’ to save your link.
*To link directly to a News and Events Article, you will open the News & Event article in the editor and click the View Permalink button. This will open the News & Event article with a unique URL that you can copy from the URL bar at the top of the page and insert into the Tweet link. (As of 7/28/2023 you can only link to News & Event articles that you created – or you can contact the owner of the News article and ask them to send you the permalink for an article.)
Type your ‘tweet’ into the text box.
Choose a publish date and time, as well as an expiration date and time. (Your tweet will be posted/removed using this information).
Choose the Facility with the intended audience for your “tweet” and then click ‘Save” to publish your message. You may choose one specific location or all locations (as of 7/28/2023).
Tips for Tweeting:
Keep it short and simple.
Use links appropriately. Link to department pages when appropriate.
Never include sensitive information in a tweet.
