Hi Randall. Any progress on this?
No, I've not written any code.
Damn. I totally rely on this code, I worked on it a number of years ago putting in the adding-new-user thing, and it took ages to figure it all out. Not looking forward to the people API migration, and was hoping someone else might have started on it!
Hi, The changes were substantial, so I just did it from scratch. https://github.com/mrmattwilkins/google-contacts-sync Welcome to use it if you want Cheers Matt
Is Michael Adler's code no longer working? It seems like it has stopped sync'ing over the last few days (it had been working flawlessly since October).
Trying to do some troubleshooting...I am getting an error which looks like a local error, "The system cannot find the path specified." Don't know how Google would be causing it on their end. Any suggestions before I go deeper on this? Thanks!

Thanks. Any alternatives you know of? I see @mrmattwilkins has written a new contact sync based on the People API, but it apparently doesn't sync groups which I really need.
Sorry about that (lack of groups). I just didn't need it, and got the syncing to the point of usefulness for me. You might want to check out the repo though, the syncing was surprisingly easy, there isn't a lot of code to it, so adding groups might not be too difficult. Cheers Matt

Thanks. I'm a complete Python noob, but I'll take a look. I'll let you know if I figure it out.

I'm going off-topic for a moment. This new people API is have me a way.. need some help with my little code
my setup is that i have a google form that link to google sheet and every new contact that get added my code below would run in google app script and add or update my google contact. it was work over a few years now but a couple days ago it stop work. can you rewrite this with the new people api. thanks inadvance
App script code below
function fromSubmitted(e){ const info = e.namedValues; const contactArray = ContactsApp.getContactsByPhone(info["WhatsApp Number"]); if(contactArray.length === 0){ addContact(info); } else { updateContact(contactArray[0],info); } }
function addContact(info) { const c = People.People.createContact(info["User Name"], info["Last Name"], info[""]); c.addPhone(ContactsApp.Field.MOBILE_PHONE, info["WhatsApp Number"]); c.setMiddleName(info["Birth Year"]); c.setSuffix(info["Parish"]); c.setPrefix(info["Gender"]); c.addCompany(info[""],info[""]); c.setNotes(info["Phone Network"]); const cg = ContactsApp.getContactGroups(); c.addToGroup(cg[4]);
}
function updateContact(c,info) { c.setGivenName(info["First Name"]); c.setMiddleName(info["Birth Year"]); c.setSuffix(info["Parish"]); c.setPrefix(info["Gender"]); c.setNotes(info["Phone Network"]); c.addCompany(info[""],info[""]); c.setFamilyName(info["Last Name"]);
}
Matt, been awhile. Well, I really needed group sync, so I wrote a Google script from scratch to do contacts sync which includes group sync. It resembles more of Frankenstein's monster than pretty code. It is a work in progress, but it is functional. I've been using it for a couple of weeks with four accounts. You (or anyone) are welcome to try it if you'd like.
Google announced the deprecation of the Contact API effective June 15, 2021. They recommend moving to the People API which provides feature parity with the exception of working with "Other Contacts". A Migration Guide is also provided.
