Changing Delve Feature Settings
Is there any way to programatically change the Delve, Feature Settings, such as Show Documents, MyAnalytics, EmailDigest?
PnP can only provide capabilities which have native APIs. There's no bypassing of the native APIs using PnP channels. If there's external API, PnP can though faster provide for example a cmdlet for the capability... but in this case, challenge is simply the lack of existing API to call.
PowerShell would be nice...

Agree, i have been looking all over any API without any luck. It's frustrating that they frequently start working on new stuff before they finish previously released features. e.g. many of the official powershell modules do not have cmdlets for all of the functionality availalbe in the UI
Yep, it would be nice if there was a release cadence like:
1. Finish first version and release complete with PowerShell and other APIs (like Microsoft Graph)
2. Introduce new features and update PowerShell cmdlets etc.
3. Redo as necessary

- DeletedThanks a bunch, Tony. Although, as far as I understand it, switching to to Graph-based privacy controls does not enable insights to be shown to the user himself (on his dashboard), whilst not showing his documents when others visit his page, it's still a change forward into the right direction.
- The control is over the insights generated based on a user's data rather than the insights shown to them. Is that what you mean?
- Deletedas far as i know not but maybe it can be done in the future..

Are we able to set fetaure settings for delve programmatically (CSOM/PowerShell)?
- Dean_GrossSilver Contributor
VesaJuvonenhave any changes been made to the APIs that would provide this capability?
- VesaJuvonenMicrosoft
Not aware of any programmatic way to control these. Are not at least exposed through the CSOM APIs or through PowerShell.

Thanks for the confirmation. How do they decide which settings can be accessed programmatically? it seems sort of random, some settings can only be configured through code and others can only be configured manually.
- ESPITGuyCopper ContributorMore half-baked BS from MS. Constantly finding myself on forums like this trying to disable something that should never have been designed without a simple governance option.
