What is Microsoft Delve

Posted on by

Microsoft Delve is one of the applications available as part of the Office 365 licences.

Here is a useful link which will show you a little more about it

What is Delve? – Microsoft Support

For the UON, please be aware you will see files that you have shared with others on your Delve page.

You will also see files which have been shared with you

Are my documents safe in Delve?

Yes, your documents are safe. Delve never changes any permissions. Only you can see your private documents in Delve.

Also, other people can’t see your private activities, such as what documents you’ve read, what emails you’ve sent and received, or what Teams conversations you’ve been in. Other people can see that you’ve modified a document, but only if they have access to the same document.

Note that documents are not stored in Delve. If you want to change permissions on any of your documents, you can do this from where the documents are stored, such as OneDrive for work or school or SharePoint in Microsoft 365.

What you see in Delve is different from what other people see. You can see your private documents and other documents that you have access to. Other people can see their documents and documents that they have access to.

Video Editor Announcement

Posted on by

You may have noticed that Video Editor no longer works, this is due to Microsoft removing it from the Photos app.

Microsoft are replacing Video Editor with Clipchamp but unfortunately Clipchamp has not yet been rolled out to Education Plans.

To allow continued use of the legacy Video Editor we have published Microsoft Photos Legacy app which can be installed via Company Portal, this application still allows use of the video editor.

We are unable to deploy the Clipchamp application until Microsoft rolls it out to our plan – we are still awaiting dates for this.

Company Portal Installed on Windows Devices: 

You may have noticed a new application called Microsoft Company Portal has been installed on your machine, this application will replace Software Centre.

It will show all applications you can currently see in software centre but also allows us to make applications available from the Microsoft Store as well as various links to O365 web apps.

To open, click on your start menu and start typing company portal, click on the icon when it shows

When you first open you may get asked to choose a category – choose Windows device then click Done in bottom right corner

Click Apps on the left hand side to see a list of all applications available to install

Notice the items that specify Microsoft Services under the application name

These are web links that will open the Office 365 website focused on that application, they will not install an application.

In the case of Microsoft To Do and Power BI there is also an application available and you will need to select the item that does not have Microsoft Services underneath if you want to install the application

Note that not all weblinks have a corresponding application available, some are only available as weblinks such as Bookings.

You can search for a specific app using the search function

If you click in Settings in the bottom left corner You can sync your device with Intune and change between light and dark modes.
