Contact Cards – Expanded Information

Web part name (as shown in web part properties) to which you’re suggesting an enhancement
Contact Cards
What is current web part behavior (or look) that doesn’t work for you?
The contact cards have been working great so far. I did receive a request from our CEO that he liked the function in standard sharepoint when you click on someone’s contact card it gives you a bunch of options to communicate with them, their info, and other additional information. If we could have that, maybe be a toggleable option that would be great.
> Have a screenshot (please do not include confidential info in your screenshots)?

What is the scenario for which you need the suggested new look/behavior?
Allowing people to view othjer employees information more readily/easily

Thank you for this suggestion, everything is clear though we redacted your screenshot due to private info available on it. We will post an update here when ready.

The specific screenshot you’ve shared is using a component that is deprecated by Microsoft as per below: Person-Card component in Microsoft Graph Toolkit - Microsoft Graph | Microsoft Learn

Native SharePoint web parts:

  • run entirely within SharePoint’s internal page context
  • rely on privileged, undocumented, internal APIs
  • are not constrained by the SharePoint Framework (SPFx) permission boundaries applied to third-party solutions

This is one of the reason why you see this contact details card still working inside Microsoft but not available to third parties.

With that we’ll leave this enhancement request in the queue and we’ll revisit it when Microsoft releases a replacement path.
