Customize presentation of contact details in Outlook
- Jan 07, 2019
I used the TurnOnContactTabLabelReplace2 string for the label. And for the value, the TurnOnContactTabMAPIReplace2, which needs to be DWORD, not String.
It does work, here's a quick test I did with replacing both the label and the corresponding attribute value for the Office field.
Hi Vasil,
thank you so much for your effort!!
Okay, that's truly a proof. Obviously I'm doing something wrong.
I configured both registry keys as well, but the changes wont take effect.
In this case I used the label telephone "work" to override and linked it with the AD-Attribute "employeeID".
The result (after gpudpate & Outlook restart).
I don't have a glue what I'm doing wrong. My guess - is there a specific way how to link the AD-Attribute? The attribute is configured in both sources (AD and Azure AD) with same ID and filled with Information.
As already said, I'm really grateful for your help!

Hi Vasil,
I would like to thank you! The MAPI values are working well.
I was hoping that the AD-Attributes are also working, therefore I've opened Ticket at Microsoft Support. Our findings are the same - the MAPI values are the only working solution to rewrite information in the outlook contact card.
So, I also thank you for your effort and help! :)
