The global community is created when a new Fuse instance is set up. By default, all Fuse users are members of this community, and any new users created after the instance has been set up will become members automatically. The global community is an easy way to instantly share content with every user in Fuse.
The global community is listed on the Communities screen along with other communities you are a member of.
