Delete "Other" & "Frequent" contacts for all the users

[Immanuel Wonderful]

Hi Team,

Is there any way to delete the contact x...@xyz.com from the "Other" and "Frequent" contacts for all users?

Thanks in Advance.

Hi Immanuel, 

When deleting a contact from Other Contacts it also deletes it from Frequent. 

see steps below to delete an othercontact

Contacts in 'Other Contacts' are identified with a resourceName similar to otherContacts/c888xxxxxxxxxx999. This resourceName is used to delete the contacts.

user

gam user <User Email Address> delete othercontacts <Resource Name>

Thank you Robert for your prompt response.

Could you help me find the contact resource name and command for CSV?

Immanuel

Thanks, Ross.

I think the command went wrong.

gam user a...@xyz.com delete othercontacts emailmatchpattern "c...@xyz.com"
Getting all Other Contacts for  a...@xyz.com
Got 440 Other Contacts...
User:  a...@xyz.com, Delete maximum of 440 Other Contacts
  User:  a...@xyz.com , Other Contact: otherContacts/c5028667479871648851, Deleted (105/440)

My requirement is to delete the other contact and frequent contact c...@xyz.com from a...@xyz.com email account

Immanuel.

Hi Immanuel, 

If you look in the account that you used after user, you'll see that it has deleted the othercontacts and frequent contact you stated after emailmatchpattern. 

Gam stated it a bit weird i know. 

But it looks through all the othercontacts for the account used by u 440 othercontacts, 

then looks through the 440 othercontacts and deletes the othercontact you specified. 

it only deletes in this line: User:  a...@xyz.com , Other Contact: otherContacts/c5028667479871648851, Deleted (105/440)

Thanks Robert.

Could you please give me the correct command to delete a contact from the "other" and ""frequent" contacts from all the users email account.

Immanuel.
