You and everyone else in your organization have your own profile page in Delve. Use the profile pages to find information about people - and through people - and to help others find you. You can also connect with others directly from their profile page.

On your own page, you can quickly get back to documents you've worked on recently, go to other people's pages to see what they're up to, and update your personal information.

To go to your profile page, click Me in the left pane, or click your name or picture anywhere in Delve.

Update your profile to help others find you

Your profile page is where you can update your contact information and add information that you'd like people to know about you. To give your profile page a personal touch, upload a picture of yourself and choose a background.

Tip: Adding projects, skills, and education history to your profile is a great help to others who don't know you yet.

  • Click Update profile to change your information or to add information that you'd like others to know about you.

Learn more in View and update your profile in Delve.

Get back to your work from your profile page

Note: You may not be able to change all information in your profile. Some information, such as your name or title, may be collected from other systems that your IT or human resources department control. If you want to update those details, contact them or your admin.

When other people visit your page, they can see your contact information and connect with you directly. They can also see who you're working with, and what documents you and people around you are working on. However, they will only see documents that they already have access to, not your private documents or documents that haven't been shared with them. Learn more about privacy in Delve.

Will the content in my desktop folders show up in Delve?

Only if you include your desktop folders in OneDrive for work or school. You then get the benefits of OneDrive for work or school and have your content synced and available to you from anywhere securely, and you can find and share this content in Delve. Others will still only see documents that they already have access to.

My colleague says she found this great presentation, but I can't find it in my Delve?

What you see in Delve is personalized to you. If you don't see the same document as your colleague, it could be that you don't have access to the document or that there are not enough contact points between you and the document to have it appear. You may be able to find the document on your colleague's page or by searching for it.

My Delve is (almost) empty - what can I do?

Make sure that you follow the advice in Store your documents where Delve can get to them.

The more you and your colleagues work together, by viewing, editing and sharing each other's documents, the more useful Delve will be for all of you.
