About SharePoint Team Sections
A team section is a pre-built block that shows the people behind a site: meet-the-team grids, single teammate profiles, staff directory blocks, department dashboards, onboarding buddies and HR contact cards. SharePoint's People web part shows hand-picked profiles in a compact or descriptive layout. ShortPoint team sections add designed grids, tabs, search and contact buttons, and they can connect to Microsoft 365 people profiles so names, roles and photos stay current, with no more hand-maintained staff directory pages. Compare every design in the carousel, from a single teammate profile to searchable directories with tabs and detailed people cards, and preview each one on a live page.
Team Section Features
Use ShortPoint to put people on any SharePoint page without custom development: pick a team section, connect it to people profiles or a SharePoint list, add search and department filters, and keep cards on-brand with Theme Builder.
AI Designer
Describe the section you need and let AI Designer write and build the block.
Page Builder
Swap layouts, resize the block and edit every piece of content visually.
Theme Builder
Apply your brand colors, typography and corner radius in one place.
Connect
Pull headlines, dates and items from SharePoint lists so the block updates itself.
Copy & Paste
Reuse the same section across every department page and site.
Accessibility
Proper labels, contrast and keyboard support for every reader.
Integrations

Design Kit

Elements

Responsive Design
Everything stays readable and tappable when the block stacks on mobile.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, a team section can replace the SharePoint people web part. It shows the same profile data in designed layouts (grids, cards, and department strips) and adds search and filters, which the standard people web part doesn't offer.
Yes, the directory can show profile photos, job titles, and departments for each person, along with click-to-email or Teams buttons so people can reach a colleague in one click.
Yes, SharePoint employee directory sections include search and can filter by department, location, or any list column, so people can find the right colleague quickly.
Not as a traditional tree-style org chart, but you can show your organization by team. Team Dashboard and Department sections give a visual structure by team, and you can connect them to your people data to group people by manager or department.
Yes, team sections work with both Microsoft 365 and on-premises SharePoint. That includes SharePoint Online in Microsoft 365, as well as SharePoint Server Subscription Edition, 2019, 2016, and 2013.
Yes, each department can have its own team page. Copy the section to each department's page or site and connect it to that team's SharePoint group, so every department shows its own people in the same layout.
