# How to View Received Spotlights

by [Folio Support](https://blog.foliocollaborative.org/support/author/folio-support)   |   Jul 9, 2026

The Spotlight feature allows users to send praise and recognition to colleagues. Received Spotlights are visible to recipients and their supervisors, and serve as a way to highlight the exemplary efforts, projects, and contributions being made throughout the school.  

### How-to View Received Spotlights

Received Spotlights are accessed through a user's profile. To access your profile, click on your name in the top right corner, then select "Profile."

In the About section, your Spotlights are visible with the most recently received Spotlights appearing at the top.
