# Browse and subscribe to streams
|
|
|
|
On Zulip, users communicate with each other by sending messages to
|
|
conversation streams, which are similar to conversation threads. New
|
|
users are automatically subscribed to the organization's default
|
|
streams; however, users may want to subscribe to additional streams or
|
|
browse the list of streams that they subscribe to.
|
|
|
|
## Browse streams
|
|
|
|
1. Click the cog (<i class="icon-vector-cog"></i>) icon next to **Streams**
|
|
in the left sidebar. A tooltip labeled **Subscribe, add, or configure streams**
|
|
will appear upon hovering above the cog.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. After clicking the cog (<i class="icon-vector-cog"></i>) icon, the
|
|
[Subscriptions](/#subscriptions) page will now appear, showing all streams that
|
|
you've subscribed to by default.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here, you can explore all the public streams in the organization. You can also
|
|
[create a new stream](create-a-stream) by clicking the plus
|
|
(<i class="icon-vector-plus"></i>) icon to the right of the **Filter Streams** input.
|
|
|
|
* {!all-streams.md!}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* {!filter-streams.md!}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Upon selecting a stream in the [Subscriptions](/#subscriptions) page, {!stream-settings.md!}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Subscribing to streams
|
|
|
|
Users can choose to subscribe to any public stream in the orgniazation.
|
|
|
|
### Subscribing when a stream is created
|
|
|
|
When users create a public stream, they can choose to alert all users
|
|
in the organization about their stream's creation.
|
|
|
|
Thus, you may be notified about the stream's creation with a message
|
|
in the **Home** view sent by Notification Bot such as the one in the
|
|
following image.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The message will present to you the option of subscribing to the stream, and you
|
|
can do so by simply clicking the gray button.
|
|
|
|
### Subscribing later
|
|
|
|
However, if the you were not notified about the stream's creation, you can
|
|
subscribe to a stream by navigating to the [Subscriptions](/#subscriptions) page.
|
|
|
|
{!subscriptions.md!}
|
|
|
|
2. {!all-streams.md!}
|
|
|
|
3. Click on the area to the left of the stream that you would like to
|
|
subscribe to (highlighted in red).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A green checkmark will appear next to the stream that you've just
|
|
subscribed to, and you will now be able to read and send messages in
|
|
that stream.
