## General Settings

In the “General Settings” area, you can activate or deactivate basic functions and extensions globally in Easy Directory. Here you will find a brief description of each extension to give you an overview

### **Personal Mailbox Contacts**

If personal mailbox contacts is enabled, then all users can import their personal mailbox contacts from Outlook into Easy Directory.

### **Personal Shared Mailbox Contacts**

If personal shared mailbox contacts is enabled, then all users can import their personal shared mailbox contacts from Outlook into Easy Directory.

### **Entra ID Contacts**

If Entra id contacts is enabled, all users will see the contacts stored in the Entra ID

#### Entra ID Filters

With the help of Entra ID filters, certain contacts (e.g., system contacts, admin contacts, etc.) can be filtered out. As a result, these contacts are no longer visible in Easy Directory and only relevant contacts are displayed.

In the **“Field”** column, select the attribute to which the filter should be applied. In the **“Pattern”** column, define the character string that the rule should target. Finally, in the **“Match Type”** column, specify where the character string must be located. All contacts that match this rule will be filtered out.

## Tags

You can use the tags to mark your contacts individually. This allows you to create a clean and clear structure in which you can search for specific contacts

## Manage Shared Mailboxes

Here you can store a shared mailbox centrally for all users so that they have access to the contacts

{% hint style="danger" %}
**All contacts within this shared mailbox are made available to all users**
{% endhint %}

## Manage Roles

### Tag Manager

## Corporate Views

You can use the organizational views to provide a predefined view for all users. This means that not every user has to create the same view manually

<figure><img src="/files/VuvWiLiMZRPtwyy9ay9l" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

To do this, you can select a user in the first dropdown. You will then receive a selection of all views for this user. You can then decide which view you want to make available to all users

{% hint style="danger" %}
Only views that the user has marked as “public” are made available. If other users do not have access to the contact sources used, these contacts will not be displayed
{% endhint %}

## Maintenance

Here you can see the status of all contact sources, when the synchronization process was last started, and whether it was successful.
