- Employee ID
- Employee hire date
- On-premises attributes
- And more
Reorder columns
You can customize your list view by reordering the columns on the page in one of two ways. One way is to directly drag and drop the columns on the page. Another way is to select Columns to open the column picker and then drag and drop the three-dot "handle" next to any given column.
If you want to share your customized list view with another person, you can select Copy link to current view in the upper right corner to share a link to the view.
User Profile enhancements
The user profile page is now organized into three tabs:
- Overview
- Monitoring
- Properties
Overview tab
The overview tab contains key properties and insights about a user, such as:
- Properties like user principal name, object ID, created date/time, and user type.
- Selectable aggregate values such as the number of groups that the user is a member of, the number of apps to which they have access, and the number of licenses that are assigned to them.
- Quick alerts and insights about a user such as their current account enabled status, the last time they signed in, whether they can use multifactor authentication, and B2B collaboration options.
