Delve Home Page

home page

The Delve home page in the Office 365 Web portal offers the user documents that are likely to be relevant and that are accessible. The intent is to help users quickly find and discover documents and other content.

At right, the Delve home page shown here displays three documents and part of a fourth. Delve chooses documents for the user based on recent user activity and other “signals” stored in the Office Graph service. The documents shown here include one from a OneDrive for Business site that has been shared with the user and attachments in the user’s mailbox. Delve presents each document as a card summary that includes information about the source and recent activity for the document and action links such as “Add to board” (explained below). Displays are security-trimmed, so the user only sees documents that are accessible based on security permissions.

At left are links to some other Delve features:

A keyword Search box returns results from the organization’s Office 365 documents and other content, ranking results based on Office Graph signals and formatting them using a card view like that of the home page.
