Hello 

Please i need your help on this issue.

We are currently deploying Teams phones to about 150 users. Several users have noticed their personal contacts from their personal devices have been synced to Teams.

  1. They want their personal contacts removed.
  2. Is there a way to set policy to stop this sync from happening?
  3. How can we remove the already synced contacts in batch?
