Updates to Get-Contact and Set-Contact Cmdlets for “Contacts” Recipient Type in Exchange Online
We have 3 non-Mail enabled contacts in EXO - the name of each is a long number, there is no displayname. There is no info to identify what they are for (Get-Contact | fl shows not to many informations - only creation date which is only 2 years ago). They seem to be synced vom Active Directory but if i search for a contact with the long number onprem I doesn't get a result. If i search for the guid also. Is there a way to find the corresponding objects in AD?
