# My Favorites

## What is My Favorites 

My Favorites is a **web part that collects your favorite contacts, FAQs, news, apps and documents in one single point on the SharePoint intranet**. This allows you to **immediately find contents you saved in the different web parts** **of your SharePoint intranet**. Thanks to this feature, such contents will always be at your fingertips and you will not waste time on searches. My Favorites **automatically updates** with content saved in the SharePoint web parts where contacts, FAQs, apps, communications and documents are published.

This web part is divided into **five sections**, which bring together favorites from: 

* The [People Directory](https://docs.intranet.ai/intranet-sharepoint/configurations/people-directory)
* The [FAQs](https://docs.intranet.ai/intranet-sharepoint/configurations/faqs) pages
* The [Company Apps](https://docs.intranet.ai/intranet-sharepoint/configurations/company-apps) web parts
* The [News Archive](https://docs.intranet.ai/intranet-sharepoint/configurations/news-archive)
* The [Company Documents](https://docs.intranet.ai/intranet-sharepoint/configurations/company-documents) web parts

The web parts listed above offer the user the possibility to save items as favorites thanks to a star icon. The user just needs to click on this symbol to add contacts, FAQs, apps, news or documents to the corresponding favorites lists. The sections which compose My Favorites collect all the items the user marked as favorites. The company can decide to activate all the sections or just some of them, according to its needs.
