Trending Documents
Description
Stay ahead with Trending Documents, the tool that helps you stay informed about the documents that matter most in your work environment. Seamlessly integrated with Microsoft 365, Trending Documents gives you quick insight into what is happening in your OneDrive and across your organization. See the files you recently worked on, stay on top of changes, and discover relevant documents your colleagues are working with.
Key Features
- Your OneDrive Activity: Quickly access the documents you recently opened, created, edited, or updated in OneDrive, so you can easily continue your work and stay organized.
- Discover Trending Documents Around You: See relevant documents your colleagues have been working on and stay connected with activity across your team and organization.
- Know What’s Happening: View document activity and see which colleagues contributed, helping you understand what changed and who is involved.
- Stay Up to Date: Keep track of the latest updates, so you never miss an important change in the documents you work with.
Trending Documents includes two widgets designed to help you stay productive and informed:
- Used documents: Shows the documents you recently used in OneDrive, including files you read, created, edited, or updated. Open them directly from the widget and quickly resume your work.
- Trending documents: Shows documents that are trending around you, based on activity from your colleagues and organization. This helps you stay in the loop with team activity and open relevant documents directly from the widget.
- Supports only organizational (work / school) accounts.
- Note: As the app is built by an individual, an administrator must allow the app for Microsoft organization accounts.
