Inside This Issue
In a nutshell…
eSankalan is eGov Foundation’s knowledge repository.
All of us will collaborate to create, collect and curate knowledge assets. It is our collective responsibility to ensure that we have all the artifacts here to effectively work together.
Hosted on Confluence on the cloud, your eGov user ID and password gives you access to eSankalan anywhere, using either a desktop or mobile, at any time.
What’s new…
It's a new beginning for collaboration at eGov.
Each team can have its own space to use, monitor and administer. Currently, team spaces in use are for:
Product Management
Product Engineering
Product Implementation
Product Documentation
DevOps
The space administrator decides who has access to space or even a page or artifact within the space. The administrator also decides which pages and artifacts should be made accessible and discoverable to all users in the organization.
Confluence has a few inbuilt templates and allows you to create global or space-level templates for all pages and artifact types, for example; minutes of meetings, product requirement documents, etc.

Tips & Tricks
@mentions - you use these in FaceBook, Twitter and Slack so try them in eSankalan. @mentions are a great way to get anyone’s attention on relevant content without having to use email.
How to @mention someone - simply type @ in eSankalan and you will be prompted with names of other eSankalan users. Type their name and save the page. A notification will be sent automatically to mentioned users, pulling them to the page, blog or comment. Easy, isn’t it?
Natural question - why @mention and why not just email?
Short answer: It’s much faster to mention anyone in eSankalan than it is to email them.
Long answer: Valuable conversations are lost in email inboxes, never to be found again. Worst of all, no one benefits from the great ideas that come out of those conversations.
