See who someone is

Who can do this

Anyone in your organisation. What a card shows depends on your role.

Open in GISweaver

A name or picture in GISweaver opens that person's contact card: who they are, their role and the ways to reach them.

  1. Point at a person's name or picture in a conversation, or at a mention in a message. On a phone, tap it.

  2. Read the card: their picture, name, job title and role, and, if you may see them, their email address and phone number. The card also shows whether the person is online, busy or offline.

See who is viewing a project

  1. Look at the faces beside the project's name, in the map's title bar or on the project's page. Point at a face to read that person's name.

  2. Select a face, or on a phone tap it, to open that person's card: the same card as above.

What happens next

  • Message opens your direct conversation with them, or starts one: see Send a direct message.
  • Moving the pointer away, scrolling, Esc or a click elsewhere closes the card.
  • On a phone the card rises from the bottom of the screen; select Close to put it away.

If something goes wrong

  • Your browser did not allow copying. Select the text on the card and copy it instead. The copy button could not reach the clipboard.
  • The card shows no email address or phone number: you are not one of the people who see them.
