Update email contact fields

Question

We are needing to update all of the contact fields. Is there a command line command, or a quick way to update them? It is more that just the office address, phone numbers have changed also.

Do you want to modify Contact information for "User Mailbox" or "Mail Contact"?

All in all, you need to prepare a source file which contain the information about "the target object", "Value for Office", "Value for phone". Such as:

If you want to modify information for mail Contact, you can use command below:

Import-Csv c:/temp/source.csv | %{Set-Contact -Identity $_.Name -MobilePhone $_.phone -Office $_.Office}  

If you want to modify information for contact information for user mailbox, you can use command below:

Import-Csv c:/temp/source.csv | %{Set-User -Identity $_.Name -MobilePhone $_.phone -Office $_.Office}  

You can also add other attributes to above command if you want to change it. Before that, use "Get-Contact" and "Get-User" command to check whether that attribute exist for above command.
