Hello,

in Owncloud 8 there was a possibility tu add an adresse book with ldap backend. So i don't show this features in owncloud 9.

So th question is how I can import Active Directory informations like : name, surname, phone, address, and others from Active Directory to an adress book on owncloud ?

I would like to do that in script for automated this.

Thanks for you're ideas.

This is something which needs to be implemented outside the scope of the new contacts app.

The new contacts app is 'just' a JavaScript based CardDAV client.

In order to import LDAP contacts into an addressbook someone needs to implement a tool which takes the data from LDAP and put this into an addressbook.

A script like this can basically be implemented using any language since you can import the data using CardDAV and any language has libraries to do so.
