How to earn badges

Participation of course! 🤩 🤩 🤩 For all the actions you take in the community, including…asking questions starting conversations answering questions participating in conversations sharing best practices… you are awarded points and those eventually add up into automatically applied badges that appear on your avatar and profile. There are also some special manually applied badges that the community team can use to recognize members. For example, you’ll see that some early participants in our community received Founding Member badges. And finally there are external programs like Commvault’s Expert Certification Program by which Commvault administrators and engineers have earned “Certified Expert” rank that is reflected in the community. As we grow our community more opportunities for recognition will be announced. Stay tuned!

Just like many of the other platforms you use - when you tag another user in your question or comment, the platform will notify them that they were mentioned in a post. To tag a user, you simply start with the @ symbol, then begin typing their username. The platform will suggest matches, and you simply select the username of the person you would like to tag. As soon as you post your message, the user will receive a notification that they were mentioned, and a link to the post.
