Content cards
Delve does not demonstrate the relevant content found for you conventionally but through content cards ordered by modification. The great advantage of demonstrating content as content cards and ordering by modification without grouping is the fact that you can see where your colleagues are working. On the card shown in Figure 2.6, you will be able to view the following:
- When the last change was made to the document.
- The file and its format.
- The filename.
- The original location of the file.
- The file action panel, including the permission view and sharing actions. This panel allows you to quickly share the last documents that you have worked on.

In order for Delve to find more and more relevant content for you, filling in the document information properly is essential, as well as organizing the company's hierarchy and personal information.
Tip
Pages created on modern SharePoint sites are included among the files Delve displays.
Have you seen this way of viewing content elsewhere? On the Microsoft 365 home page, in the first frame, documents are displayed in a card format, and this display is formed from data generated by the same engine that powers Delve. This demonstrates that Microsoft is increasingly improving the integration of its tools and it is not unreasonable to think that, in the future, all these tools will be available in Microsoft Teams to make it the modern working hub.
Maybe the most common question about Delve relates to security. If Graph can see everything, how can my organization and I be confident that we can collaborate without privacy risks?
