A profile brings together everything colleagues need: work and contact details from Microsoft 365, the person's own "about me", skills and working hours, their reporting line, direct reports, the people they work with, and the kudos they have received.

Profile of Priya Nair with banner, pronouns, title, location and local time; actions Email, Chat, Kudos; About with skills and interests; Work and Contact cards; Reporting line, Direct reports, Works with and Profile completeness.
A complete profile. Skills are links: selecting one searches for everyone with that skill.
Profile of Aisha Khan showing a Microsoft 365 photo with a red Teams status badge and the text 'In a meeting'; direct reports each show their own Teams status badge.
Photos and Teams status. Photos come from Microsoft 365. The status badge and text match Microsoft Teams: here "In a meeting", with team members Available, Away, Offline, Out of office and Do not disturb.
QR code dialog with Contact card and Profile link tabs, the QR code, and Download PNG, SVG and Close buttons.
QR code. Scan with a phone camera to save the contact card or to open the profile. Download it as PNG (with name and job title, ready for a badge) or SVG. It holds only the fields the viewer may see.

How it works

  • Actions: email, Teams chat, give kudos, add to favourites, save contact (vCard), copy link, open in the org chart, QR code, and request a correction.
  • Local time is shown when the person has set a time zone.
  • As in Teams, the status icon follows availability and the text follows the activity (for example Busy, "Presenting").
  • Photos are copied into a picture library on your site during the sync. A photo changed in Microsoft 365 since the last sync is shown straight from Microsoft Graph.
  • Each person can choose their own profile banner (see My profile).
  • HR sees an extra record panel: the source, status, last sync and any HR overrides.
