This article is about how to follow a document or a website in your organization.
Follow a document or a Website to see notifications or updates in your news feed when any teammate updates the document or share it with others, and also keep the document updated in a followed document list. Follow a site to keep it accessible in a list of the followed sites and to see site feed activity in your own news feed.
How to follow a document
