- nbruneau71Copper ContributorThanks Vasil, do you have any examples on how to do it ?
- Just add them to any of the address lists included in the ABP, by adjusting the recipient filter. Or create a new address list for them. Or adjust the GAL filter.
If it's just a handful of contacts you want to add, listing them explicitly is easy, something like:
(CustomAttribute15 -eq 'Teams') -or (Alias -eq "Contact1")
A better, more scalable approach would be to use one of the custom attributes, or any other query that will cover all contacts you care about, for example:
(CustomAttribute15 -eq 'Teams') -or (CustomAttribute14 -eq "AddToGal1")- nbruneau71Copper Contributor
Hi Vasil,
ok so the thing is when you create a contact through Microsoft Admin Center, nowhere you can affect a CustomAttribute. (I managed only through PowerShell.
Here are my two ABP :
And here are my AddressList for the contact :
So right now when I create a contact it goes on both AddressList, I guess that I should add the custom attribute ?
Thanks a lot for your help.

- There are no limitations as to adding contacts, just make sure they're covered by the corresponding recipient filters.
