add consumer skype contacts to skype for business Mac
will it be possible to add consumer skype contacts to s4b Mac, this is the number 1 request we have.
Hello!
Unfortunately it doesn't work for us.
"Let people use Skype for Business to communicate with Skype users outside your organization." it's active.
But if we search skype consumer with the email address we can't add them to our contact list.
It works only if the skype has a microsoft account email address or he has the skype account linked to microsoft...
We have tried with SfB for Windows and it works normally. In our company we use only Mac.
Is it a bug for the mac version?
Thanks,
Tai

MicrosoftAdding Skype contact using skype id feature is not supported in SFB Mac. + Jennifer Karlsson to add this to the list of feature requests.
- This is something we know is important and is on our backlog. We can't comment on timing right now.
Hi Jennifer,
It's been almost a year now. Is this feature ever going to be introduced?
- Hello, Gelke:
Support for Skype contacts is not currently planned. We only plan for two quarters out, so it is not on the horizon for at least that long. We prioritize the features based on customer input, and support for Skype contacts has not been a prominent ask in our support channels.
