Re: How do I copy contacts from 365 to an Excel Spreadsheet!?

Hi IanMaddox,

I’ll answer your question in two assumption:

If you want to get a .csv copy of a user’s contact list in Exchange Online, please try the steps below:

1. Connect Outlook to Exchange Online using the user’s account
2. Click “File”-“Options”-“Advanced”, then click the “Export” button in the right panel
3. Choose “Export to a file” in the pop up window, click “Next”, then choose “Comma Separated Values(Windows)” and click “Next”. Select the “Contacts” tab and click “Next”, choose a location that you want save the file in and click “Next”, click “Finish” to start the process.
4. You’ll get the excel file in the location you’ve just chose.

If you want to get a list of the “External Contact” in your organization in Exchange Online, you can use PowerShell to export a list of contact to a .csv file, to do that, please try the steps below:

1. Configure PowerShell for Office 365
2. Connect PowerShell to Exchange Online(with the admin’s credential)
3. Type in “Get-MailContact | Export-CSV  C:\test.csv” in PowerShell
4. You’ll then get a list of the external contact in the file
