Microsoft provides Outlook or other Office apps with fully profile card customization

In the current version of Outlook, users can set up themselves customizable profile cards, others can view each other’s profile information when sending and receiving mail.

Within the organization, administrators can customize this information when assigning email accounts, which usually include names, departments, positions, numbers, and email addresses.

However, these information templates can only be used by Microsoft and cannot be completely customized. Based on corporate needs, Microsoft will improve the profile card in the next update.

In the official Microsoft blog, Microsoft introduces the new data card that will be brought soon. The biggest feature of this data card is that it allows enterprises to completely customize employee data cards.

For example, administrators can configure fields such as employee number, office location, contact information, birthdays, and even department heads and other department contacts.

Enterprises can configure such data cards according to their own needs so that after receiving the email, the receiver only needs to hover over the head to view the data.

In addition, Microsoft also intends to use the Microsoft Graph platform to simplify the filing of information. Administrators can configure batches on the platform without the need for users to fill in the information manually.

Finally, it should be mentioned that this kind of data card will not only be displayed in Outlook, but Microsoft will also let more productivity tools integrate this type of data card in the future.

The new version of the profile card is expected to be available this spring. Microsoft has not explicitly mentioned the specific release time of such features, but it will be tested in advance. The testing part may be provided directly through the Microsoft Graph Beta.

In addition, the above functions should only support the web version of Outlook and other tools. The desktop version of Outlook and other components of Office do not be supported.
