Hello,

I am trying to create a company phone book solution for around 400 employees.

My goal is to synchronize contacts from Active Directory to employees' mobile phones automatically.

I deployed Nextcloud and connected it to Active Directory using LDAP. I configured LDAP filters so that in the "Users" section I can correctly see only active employees who have a value in the telephone number field.

However, in the Contacts module, Nextcloud still displays everything from Active Directory, including:

• all users,
• disabled accounts,
• computers,
• groups,
• and other AD objects.

I would like to know:

1. Is it possible to make the Contacts app display only active AD users with phone numbers?
2. Can Nextcloud automatically detect changes in Active Directory (for example phone number changes) and synchronize them automatically to users' phones through CardDAV?
3. Is there a native way to achieve full AD → Nextcloud Contacts → mobile phones synchronization without using external scripts?

My goal is to have a fully automatic corporate phone book synchronized from AD to Android/iPhone devices.

Thank you.
