Hi,

I created a new GAL using New-GlobalAddressList command , it executed finely. Now i want to add contacts to that perticular GAL. How can i do that. In more detail i have multiple GAL's like GAL1 , GAL2 , GAL3 . I want to import contacts to GAL1 only and those contacts will not be accessible by GAL2. Suggest me a solution in powershell.

Thanks in advance

Thanks for your reply... My problem is i want to add a contact to GAL1 . Lets assume i have a mail contacts as Mailcontact1 , Mailcontact2 , Mailcontact3 etc. Now i want to add the Mailcontact3 to GAL1 . How can i do that in powershell? Also is this contacts will be visible in other GAL as well?

You can assign an custom attribute to GAL1, i.e.

Set-GlobalAddressList GAL1 -ConditionalCustomAttribute11 GAL1

For whichever recipient you want it to be appeared in GAL1, set the custom attribute 11 as 'GAL1'.

Li mentioned like you can get that list in "organization -> address list" but i am not able to see it. I added GALs almost 2 days back.

In organization menu i have only "Sharing" and "Add-ins". Not have any "addresslist" thats why i am asking.

Hi Prima,

You cant use the EAC to perform these procedures. You must use the Shell.
