Google Contacts Corporate Address Book

Not so long ago we attended to the problem of distributing contact information among company employees. Since Google Apps tools, which include the Contacts module, are installed in our domain, the most reasonable thing was to use its capabilities to our needs.

The result should have been the completed information in the domain directory, accessible to all participants:





The bottom part of the contact information, immediately under the heading "Information from the EditMy.info directory" is entered using the API.



When editing a contact in Google Contacts, it is possible to specify phone numbers, addresses and other information about a person. However, this information is entered in the personal address book and is not available to other domain users. The only way to share contacts is to use the API: Shared Contacts API or Google Profile API. The first one is available only for the Premier and Education versions, the second one - and for the Standard version used on our domain.

The search for existing solutions on the Internet did not give anything, so, like all normal characters , we wrote our own script that allows you to edit this data for any Google Apps domain.



It is available for download open-source under the MIT license on Google Code , and is also available for online use - EditMy.info - Google Apps Profile Editor .



Everything is laid out solely for the purpose of missing and does not pursue any commercial or any other benefit.
