Why Entra ID attributes don’t always appear on Microsoft 365 profile cards
While working with Microsoft Entra ID and Microsoft 365 profile cards, I ran into a behavior that often causes confusion: attributes like EmployeeType can exist in Entra ID and Microsoft Graph, yet not appear consistently on Microsoft 365 profile cards. This post breaks down why this happens, what’s actually happening behind the scenes, and what you can realistically expect when working with profile card attributes in real environments. Profile cards should be treated as a presentation layer, not a guaranteed real-time reflection of every Entra ID attribute. If you’ve seen similar behavior with other attributes or workloads, I’d love to hear how you’ve approached it in your environments.LinkedIn profile card on Office 365
Back at Ignite in September Microsoft introduced LinkedIn profile cards for Office 365.

At the time and since a slow rollout was mentioned. Given the integration opportunity I'm surprised at the slow progress. Have others gained access yet?

Several months after announcement I am still awaiting LinkedIn contact sync to be made available to my tenant. I'm based in the UK but within the European datacentres. I'm in TR. Anyone else seeing or waiting on this feature? This seems like a very long rollout period.
Office 365 / LinkedIn integration not available

How do I re-enable the functionality as I see in this article? https://blog.linkedin.com/2017/september/250/adding-linkedin_s-profile-card-on-office-365-offers-a-simple-way I don't see the Social Option under https://outlook.live.com/owa/?path=/options/people I suspect it's because the app isn't listed in my account where I provide permissions but not sure how to add it here manually Same for the Outlook desktop App: Even though I have the option checked: and the add-in is runningLinkedIn integration to the Office Profile Card -- Progress?
Announced back in September 2017 I'm yet to see LinkedIn integration arrive for my tenant. I understood rollout was slow but this seems exceptionally so. Have plans changed? Are others seeing this feature? Can Microsoft update on progress please? My tenant is based within the European datacentres. Copying Cem Aykan
