"Ah shucks, a meeting in 15 minutes?! 🤯"

It happened to all of us: Outlook chimes to alert you to a meeting that's coming up shortly. Only you've not prepared for it nor budgeted for another hour taken out of your day.

Well one way you can avoid such situations in the future, is by placing the handy Today's Events card on your Board. That just shows you any events you have still to come today (including all-day events and recurring events).

And cleverer still, if Digital Assistant finds a link inside the event location or description it will neatly place a Join meeting button on the Card. This means you don't have to fumble with the calendar event and just get straight to the meeting in one click.

If only everything was this easy...

Make your own Adaptive Cards for Outlook

Alternatively, once you installed this app, you can create custom Cards using the Adaptive Cards Designer built right into Digital Assistant. Using any data available through Outlook's Graph API you can pull emails from shared mailboxes, see flagged emails or create filtered calendar views, e.g. a team annual leave calendar.

Users rely on Google's famous answer boxes for most casual queries, such as the weather forecast or answers aggregated from the top results. With this channel, you can add a similar experience to your SharePoint intranet.

We call them Answer Cards, because they are made using Adaptive Cards. And it can have a transformative effect on your SharePoint search experience:

  • Create your own Adaptive Cards with live data from 3rd party apps, for example by starting off with a template

  • Teach the built-in AI to recognize natural language commands users might say when they would like to see your Card

  • Find all your Adaptive Cards with the Answer Card web part for SharePoint that lets you enter natural full-length questions or short commands

  • Build a bank of QnA knowledge with Digital Assistant that can give further answers to SharePoint users, for example for FAQs

Combine Adaptive Cards with PnP Modern Search

See an Answer Card in-between the PnP Search box and PnP Search Results

Built as an open-source SharePoint extension that's maintained by Microsoft, PnP Modern Search is a popular replacement for SharePoint's built-in more limited search experience. It offers more granular search UI options, for example extra refiners, search suggestions and control over how results are displayed.

If you already use PnP Modern Search, the Answer Card web part can be switched into a PnP mode where it receives the search input directly from PnP's search bar.

This effectively makes the web part an additional improvement to search pages previously made with PnP Modern Search. The best thing is, if the Answer Card web part doesn't find a suitable Card to show the user, it stays completely hidden.

How to make Adaptive Cards for SharePoint's Search

Making your first Adaptive Card for your new SharePoint search is easy with the built-in Adaptive Card Designer. Simply add the Answer Card web part to your SharePoint page, and then open the configuration panel.

There you can simply click on Add new Answer Card to bring up an empty new Adaptive Card in the built-in Designer. The Adaptive Card Designer is a graphical designer that allows you to drag-and-drop different elements into your Card.

You can even teach the built-in natural language processing to recognize this Card through user questions, by clicking on Add training phrases. Once you have a design saved, just search for it in the Answer Card web part by asking it one of the pre-trained sentences.
