# Create a Stream from the Chatter Home Page

The Chatter home page lists up to five of your streams and provides a button for adding more.

### Required Editions

<table class="slds-table slds-table_bordered slds-max-medium-table_stacked slds-m-bottom_small edition"><colgroup><col></colgroup><tbody><tr class=""><td class="slds-cell-wrap" style="vertical-align:top;">Available in: <strong>Essentials</strong>, <strong>Group</strong>, <strong>Professional</strong>, <strong>Enterprise</strong>, <strong>Performance</strong>, <strong>Unlimited</strong>, <strong>Contact Manager</strong>, and <strong>Developer</strong> editions</td></tr></tbody></table>

To create a Chatter stream, provide a title and select the feed types and feeds that you want in your stream.

1. Go to the Chatter home page, and click the ![New Stream icon](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-experience-collaboration-264-0-0-production-enus/1aab5b5e-c990-4b8c-840a-6fb18af49709/collaboration/images/chatter_streams_add_stream_icon.png) icon next to the Streams heading to open the New Stream dialog (1).
2. Enter a name for your stream.
3. In the **Records to Follow** field, click the down arrow (2) and choose a type of feed you want to add to your stream.

4. When you’ve made a selection, click in **Records to Follow** again and enter the name to search for (3).
    
    ![Search results in a New Stream dialog](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-experience-collaboration-264-0-0-production-enus/1aab5b5e-c990-4b8c-840a-6fb18af49709/collaboration/images/chatter_streams_search_list.png)
    
    ![Note](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-experience-collaboration-264-0-0-production-enus/1aab5b5e-c990-4b8c-840a-6fb18af49709/images/icon_note.png)
    
    Note Knowledge articles (KAs) aren’t fully supported in streams. You can add them when you create and edit a stream by searching for the article’s ID number rather than its title. But you can’t add a KA to a stream from its Follow button like you can with other record types. Articles added to Streams using the article’s ID don’t appear in Records to Follow on the Stream's edit page. KAs also don’t appear when viewing the Follow button details on the article's detail page.
5. Select a listed feed.
    
    ![Feeds listed in a New Stream dialog](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-experience-collaboration-264-0-0-production-enus/1aab5b5e-c990-4b8c-840a-6fb18af49709/collaboration/images/chatter_streams_selected_objects.png)
    
    Repeat steps 3 through 5 until you have all the feeds (up to 25) that you want in this stream (4).
    
    ![Note](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-experience-collaboration-264-0-0-production-enus/1aab5b5e-c990-4b8c-840a-6fb18af49709/images/icon_note.png)
    
    Note You can add up to 25 unique record, group, and profile feeds to a stream. If your access to any of the 25 is removed, the removed entity is still counted as part of the 25. You can't replace it with something else. But you can remove it from the stream to create room for another feed.
    
    To include a person account in your stream, add it as an Account in the **Records to Follow** field. If you add a person account as a Contact, the related feed posts don’t appear.
6. Set up notifications for this stream by selecting either **Every Post** or **Never** (5).
    
    ![Notifications settings in the New Stream dialog](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-experience-collaboration-264-0-0-production-enus/1aab5b5e-c990-4b8c-840a-6fb18af49709/collaboration/images/chatter_streams_notifications.png)
    
    **Every Post** is the default. It gives you email and in-app notifications whenever a new post is added to the stream. **Never** turns off notifications for this stream.
7. To save your selections, click **Save**.
8. To save your stream, click **Save** again.
    
    Your stream is listed in the left column on the Chatter home page, under the Streams heading (6). To open the stream, click its name.

    Note If your stream isn’t listed on the Chatter home page, click the Streams heading to go to the streams home page. All the streams that you created are listed there.
