Does Teams Sync with Outlook Contacts?
Hi Should the Teams clients pull in automatically the contacts from a users Outlook desktop app? Thanks

For all who will listen, after a 6 month long case with 365 support I finally have a fix to the Outlook/Teams contact sync problem!!! you have to put Teams into 'Public Preview' mode.
First follow link below to make the option available on the teams app:

Wait a bit for the policy to propagate to the clients then turn the setting on in the app
Close teams and reopen. Then BOOM!! All contacts will start to sync
