If your team publishes on SharePoint and then rebuilds everything again in email, you are losing time and accuracy. JungleMail fixes that with SharePoint news embed feature. You pull news or list items directly from SharePoint into your newsletter, edit them in the same canvas, and archive the final send back to SharePoint. One system to author, distribute, and store.
Alongside SharePoint News embed solution, JungleMail provides advanced analytics for SharePoint news inside the JungleMail app, offering deeper insight than SharePoint News Digest.
Why internal comms should care
Internal comms lives on speed, precision, and trust. JungleMail solution for news embed from SharePoint removes the copy and paste layer that creates delay and mistakes. Content stays linked to the source, so titles, summaries, and images are correct. Editors still keep full control: you can rewrite intros, change layouts, and match brand styling without leaving the builder. Targeting runs on your SharePoint audiences and employee preferences, so each person or group of employees receive the most relevant stories. The finished and delivered issue is stored in SharePoint for search and compliance. This is the workflow SharePoint users expected all along.
How SharePoint News Embed works
JungleMail connects to your SharePoint sites and reads the news, lists and pages you already manage. In the Dynamic tab of any section you turn on Enable SharePoint content, pick a source, and decide whether to automate or curate. The section can display a fixed number of items and you can choose a population layout per row or per column. You can add conditions and condition groups to filter the feed and you can turn on Content targeting to match SharePoint audiences or subscription preferences.
You have two modes. Use both as your editorial calendar demands.
Automated mode: Dynamic content from a list view
This mode builds a live block such as Latest News, New Policies, or Safety Updates and similar. It is ideal for weekly or monthly digests.
Steps
-
Open a section, go to the Dynamic tab, and enable SharePoint content.
-
Select Add list or items and choose the source, for example Site Pages or a News list.
-
Choose a SharePoint view to set sorting and columns, for example By Author or Most Recent.
-
Set Number of items to display and choose the population layout.
-
Click Add condition to filter by metadata. You can stack conditions and create condition groups.
-
Switch on Content targeting if you want to filter by SharePoint audience or subscription preferences.
-
Style the cards in the editor and save the section as part of your template.
Why this helps
-
You stop rebuilding the same block every cycle.
-
The block updates itself when new SharePoint items meet the rules.
-
You can add sending conditions such as skip the campaign if no items match, which keeps your calendar clean.
Conditions you can use
Use almost any column from your site pages or lists. Common examples:
-
Content Type equals News Post
-
Created is within the last 7 days
-
Created By is the HR team
-
Author Byline contains Safety
-
Color Tag equals Green
-
Checked Out To is empty
These are the same fields you see in the drop down when you add a condition. Because the engine reads metadata, you can express simple rules or nested logic with condition groups.
Manual mode: Item picker for curated issues
This mode is right when you want to hand pick the exact stories. Think executive roundups, annual letters, or themed editions.
Steps
-
In the Dynamic tab enable SharePoint content and choose manual item selection.
-
Browse or search your SharePoint sites and select the specific items you want.
-
Reorder cards, tweak headlines and summaries, and adjust images right in the canvas.
-
If you want to freeze the section for final edits, convert it to static content.
Why this helps
-
You get full editorial control with the speed of pulling structured content.
-
The design stays on brand and consistent with the rest of the newsletter.
-
You can mix items from different sites without juggling links.
Targeting and personalization that match your intranet
Turn on Content targeting and your section can respect SharePoint audiences. That means one campaign can assemble different content for different recipients without cloning emails. You can also filter by subscription preferences so employees opt into topics and see more of what they asked for. Section visibility rules let you show or hide blocks based on recipient attributes. The result is less noise and higher engagement.
Editing and brand alignment
SharePoint News Embed does not lock you into a rigid card. After items land in the canvas you can rewrite copy for voice and clarity, swap or crop images, and apply fonts, colors, and spacing from your brand system. The layout choices per row and per column help you keep a clean grid. If you need pixel level control before launch, convert the dynamic section to static and finalize without affecting the source.
Governance and the archive
Every send can be archived back to SharePoint. Now your newsletters are searchable, discoverable, and part of the knowledge base. New hires can browse old issues. Compliance teams have a record without extra effort. Editors keep working in JungleMail while leadership knows the history is safe in SharePoint.
