MICROSOFT DELVE: Discover What You Need: A New Way to Organize Work

How Delve knows what’s relevant

Delve is powered by the Microsoft Graph, the brain behind Delve. Microsoft Graph is an intelligent fabric that applies machine learning to map the connections between people, content and interactions that occur across Microsoft 365. Using machine learning, Delve proactively highlights key information that are relevant based on what you and your colleagues are working on closely.

How easily to work with Delve

• Go to Delve, select Delve in Microsoft 365, or open delve.office.com in your browser. Sign in with your work account.
• Click someone’s name or picture anywhere in Delve to discover what they’re working on & learn more about them.
• When you find a document you’re interested in, add it to your favorite or to a board to easily get back to it later.
• Search for people, documents, or boards.

A New way to work

Delve plays a vital role by unlocking the valuable knowledge held by each individual in an organization, and making it easy for people to discover and build upon the work of others. With easy search and discovery features of Delve, you can learn about a coworker before a meeting, embark on your new assignment, and stay in the loop on the latest updates from your team. Delve brings the right information to you proactively, saving the time you used to spend digging through email threads, asking around or looking for documents.

Delve’s dynamic card-based interface helps to understand the content that matters most to you and your colleague. Familiar features like views, profiles and boards make Delve intuitive to use, and ensure that relevant information is quickly available, easy to discover and simple to share. Also Delve never changes any permissions, so people can only see the information they already have access to. With Delve your documents are secure, private and protected.

Delve pulls in more content from across Microsoft 365

The Microsoft Graph automatically learns who and what is important to you. Then based on these insights, Delve proactively surfaces content from across Microsoft 365 into a single view, so you no longer need to search between different apps to discover the information that’s important to you. 

Delve helps to discover content from wherever it lives within various Microsoft 365 apps and experiences, including:

• SharePoint and OneDrive for Business: Delve surfaces content saved on SharePoint Online Team Sites or on OneDrive for Business cloud storage.
• Microsoft 365 Video content: Delve incorporates Microsoft 365 video portal content so you can discover trending videos relevant to you.
• Yammer: Delve incorporates links shared in Yammer so you can discover even more from across Microsoft 365. 
• Email attachments: Emails being the most popular mode of communication at work, Delve now surfaces content that has been shared as an email attachment, helping you get back important information, regardless of where it resides.

Using Microsoft 365 Delve makes it possible to analyze relationships and deliver insights from across the tools people use at work every day. It enables experiences that go above and beyond search and discovery. It’s a long term opportunity to deliver intelligent tools and new collaboration scenarios that enable people, teams and organizations to achieve more.

Conclusion: Delve enables you to manage your Microsoft 365 profile, to discover and organize the information that's most relevant and important for you, saving time and effort, as well as to keep your documents secure, private and protected across the platform.
