Global address book on mobile devices

It is possible to search the Global Address Book on mobile devices. The prerequisite is that the KIT mailbox is configured as an Exchange account.

If you tap on an entry in the search result, you will receive further details. If a telephone number is entered, it is displayed so that you can call the contact directly.
Anyone can enter their own phone number on the https://my.scc.kit.edu/shib/kv-daten.php page so that it appears in the global address book.

(Phone -) Contacts - Groups - Global address list: <account> - Search



Unfortunately, the global address book cannot be activated permanently, so you have to select it every time you search.

(Phone - ) Contacts - Search

The global address book is automatically searched. However, as the search results are grouped, it is not immediately apparent. You can collapse the grouping by tapping on the grouping line, e.g. "Contacts x found ^", to get to the desired grouping more quickly and then expand it specifically.
