Outlook Online - Managing your contacts Tutorial
In this video, you will learn about managing your contacts in Outlook Online.
The video covers the two main sections for managing contacts:
Your Contacts section and the Directory section.
In the Your Contacts section, you have full control to create, manage, or delete contacts that you have personally added or imported.
The Directory section provides access to the complete company directory, including contacts, contact groups, and resources like meeting rooms.
While you cannot delete items from the directory, it is a valuable resource to find and connect with colleagues and resources within your organization.
When you select a contact from the directory, a detailed information panel opens up, allowing you to take various actions such as sending an instant message, scheduling an event, or checking shared emails, files, and events.
Managing your contacts in Outlook Online will help you effortlessly build strong connections and stay connected with the people in your network.

Introduction to Contacts in Outlook Online
In this section, we will explore the importance of managing contacts in Outlook Online. Staying connected with colleagues and resources is essential for effective communication within an organization. -
Managing Your Contacts
Outlook Online features two main sections for contact management: - **Your Contacts Section**: This is where you can manage the people you have personally added or imported from another email system. Here, you have full control to create, manage, or delete contacts as needed. - **Directory Section**: This section provides access to the complete company directory, created by your System Administrator. It includes contacts, groups, and resources such as meeting rooms. -
Exploring the Directory Section
The Directory section is a valuable resource for finding and connecting with colleagues and resources within your organization. However, it is important to note that: - You cannot delete items from the directory; only your System Administrator has that authority. - Selecting a contact from the directory opens a detailed information panel, providing insights into context information and interactions. -
Actions Available in the Contact Information Panel
When you select a contact from the directory, you can perform various actions to enhance communication: - **Send an Instant Message**: Quickly communicate with the contact. - **Schedule an Event**: Coordinate meetings or events seamlessly. - **Add or Edit Contact Details**: Update information such as phone numbers. - **Check Shared Emails, Files, and Events**: Review past interactions with the contact. -
