This change helps organizations maintain consistent access control across the platform and supports customers that rely on divisions to separate teams, business units, or clients.
This feature helps organizations by:
- Aligning directory search with division access control
Directory search results follow the same division permissions already defined in roles and access control lists. - Improving security in segmented environments
Users cannot search for or discover people in divisions that they do not have permission to access. - Supporting enterprise and BPO operating models
Organizations that segment users by business unit or customer can prevent cross-division visibility that may cause confusion or violate internal policies. - Maintaining flexibility for administrators
Users who require access across multiple divisions can still search those divisions when administrators grant the appropriate permissions.
This update makes directory search behavior consistent with division-based access policies and helps organizations maintain clearer operational boundaries between teams and business units.
