It's been a long time since I posted an update on the SPFx People Search web part, to be completely correct: I never posted an update after the initial release in July 2020 😯. Time to post the release history, because I just put out v2.5.0!

Latest version: v2.5.0

Basic functionality stays the same, so the screenshots/gifs from the original post are still valid:

Graph People Search
Live Persona Card

History

All of this can also be found on the releases page at GitHub. I did an effort to tag all releases in the previous commits, so that it would be clear when functionality and changes were introduced.

v2.4.0

  • Fixed a race condition when combining querystring input in PnP Search Box with dynamic data connection on this web part

v2.3.0

v2.2.2

  • Cleanup of dependencies
  • Updated readme to include PnP PowerShell approach for adding Permission Scopes
  • Cleanup of import statements

v2.1.1
