Hi, 

There's a way to import phone contact to our devices in Mobicontrol? Via script, file or something like that?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Juan Manuel,

You can have a look at here for AE: Script Commands for Android Enterprise: Managed Devices (soti.net)

import_contacts_vcf <filePath> 1/0 <charsetName>

Where:

  • 0 = Add contacts to existing contacts
  • 1 = Replace existing contacts with the new contacts of the .vcf file
  • charsetName = Character encoding in the .vcf file

Example

import_contacts_vcf "/storage/ contacts.vcf" 1 UTF-8

I hope it helps. Thank you

Zafer

Just to add here:

Be aware if you do this via package and update the package and the old and new .vcf file contains same contacts you could generate duplicates using option 0.

We still wait for a feature request taking place where another option will be added to add new ones and update existing ones using UUID (ideally). But this was more than one year ago :(
