Overview
What Is DIY Sangha Employee Directory?
DIY Sangha Employee Directory is a ready-built SharePoint page solution that gives your organisation a searchable, up-to-date staff directory pulled automatically from Microsoft 365 user profiles. No manual data entry is needed — the directory reads your organisation's user data and presents it as a clean, filterable grid. A branded hero banner sits at the top of the page to give the directory its own identity.
