Administrators have read-only permissions for "Other Contacts" through thenew scope. As sending mutate/write signals back to "Other Contacts" is notsupported, your users will have to add the Other Contact as a My Contact ifthey wish to update its data fields.

The legacy scope is an alias for the scope. This means that existing oauth grants with the legacy scope will work for any endpoints in People API that require the scope. Reading and writing contacts and contact groups will work with the legacy scope.

I would like to (keep) using Google Contacts as my primary hub for contact info.However, I would benefit greatly from the ability to link with a URL to a particular person directly from various other apps. To aid in various "CRM" activities too.

There is no immediate way to see a URL when opening a person. Does anyone know of another way?(I would be willing to even make a regular export of contacts via Zapier or something to get the URL, if that is what it takes.)

With the Contact Preview turned on, the same link will bring you into Contacts with the modal window for that contact brought up. However, I don't see an easy way to get that ID. Even viewing the source doesn't really offer any clues. That's not surprising, however, as it is still a product preview.

By making "blank" or unfinished contacts, and list them in google spreadsheets, allows ease of entering new numbers upon arrival, to which then more powerful web and programming access is given to the simple built in contacts database.

Thing is, Google is phasing out the Contacts API in favor of the People API - so I imagen that many people are facing (like me) the need to build a link using the person ID. Turns out the idea is the same -

Notice that the People API returns a field called resourceName, and that the value is the person ID prefixed with people/ (e.g. people/c858934384269370260). So by splitting the resourceName and taking the last part you can extract the ID you need to build the URL.

Similar to how the data-sourceid HTML attribute contains the contact ID and can be used to extract the ID and manually build a link (see Indy's answer), there's also the data-id attribute containing the person ID, which can be used to do the same. I don't care for manual labour, so I created a TamperMonkey script that can be used to add a little "open link" button to every contact entry. Looks something like this -

Note the [contactid] is the Hexadecimal conversion of the Contact ID that you will find if you inspect the contact link c2913347583522826972 (see HTML snippet below)I ran that through this Hex converter tool to get 286E4A310F1EEADC which works in the URL above to show the correct contact.

Zapier gives you the Decimal Contact ID, so if you want to create a URL you will need to convert it to Hex first with a tool. I am asking a question on this as the contactid is a 19 digit decimal number.

I'll add something else I discovered, in case anyone needs it. If you have multiple accounts signed in, and don't want to rely on the order of sign-in to link to a contact in the correct account, use this format:

Hi @sathishvj! Sorry to hear that you know someone experiencing issues with the exam or Kryterion. Please have your friend reach out to us at google-cloud-cert...@google.com. Thanks for the question!

The best way to contact Google Cloud Certification support directly is though this webform. By using a webform, we can route support requests to the correct team more easily - and log requests as tickets so that anyone who needs to help can have a clear view of what the situation is.

So far I have submitted 3 tickets with the form above for my exam on July 16th,2023 which I didn't received official results yet for more than 13 days and there is no other means of reaching Google cloud certification support. This is pathetic support compared AWS, Microsoft certification support teams. What other means of support is available to reach the the support? If you can't provide minimum support to learners, you should have shut your certification exams itself. Shame on Google Cloud Certification support team.

I have never got the correct reply on the webform. I have sent several emails but no one cares about it. After paying this much money to take a certificate and Google doesn't provide satisfactory customer support.

could someone help me here? i have written gcp pca certification on july 6th 2023 and passed, till now i have not received any certificate, i have raised concern with google-cloud-cert...@google.com, but litterly i am frustrated, i have been following up with them from last 15 days no one is responding, i dont know how this support team works? dont have direct contact number to call?

Hi @racheler1 @carrie I cleared Associate Cloud Engineer exam on 29 February but I haven't received my certificate yet. Its been more than 40 days but no updates on my certificate. I have raised multiple tickets but I haven't got anything on my certificate. Its really frustrating and very disappointing from an organisation like google. Please provide some help in this matter.

Thanks @racheler1 I would like to mention that I have cleared Professional DevOps Exam as well on 14th April and I sincerely request that I get that certificate as soon as possible because if there happens to be any delay for receiving my Professional Certificate then I'll miss out some serious career opportunities that I am currently looking forward to. Kindly provide this matter some priority as I have been waiting a really long time.

I have appeared for Google cloud certified -professional dev ops engineer and passed the exam too on 1st may 2024., since them I have tried with all posible way to get my certificate but no luck yet. can someone please help me here.

You can synchronize contacts from your Google account into your phone group consisting of Essence or Raven phones.
Note that in case of need you can easily restore your Google contacts. Please follow these steps:

To use this integration, you will need a Google account. If you are not a user yet, sign up for a new account.When trying to make a connection, you will be prompted to authenticate against your account. If you have multiple accounts, pick the one you would like to use and Sign in.Once verified, you will need to authorize Microsoft to access your contacts. Click on Allow to continue.

As your business grows, so does your contact database. Over time, your phone's address book and your Google contacts become more important, but also more difficult to manage. If you are running a growing business, the moment to organize your contacts is now. The sooner, the better.

Gmail is one of the most popular email services around, and that makes Google Contacts (its native contact management tool) a very convenient service. If you are using Gmail and your phone for business, having these two connected makes absolute sense.

The manual setup to have your Google contacts on your phone is just a few clicks away. We'll cover those easy steps for Android and iPhone along with some other tips and tricks to help you manage your contacts more efficiently.

If you don't have a cloud service associated with your phone, your contacts "live" on your phone's memory. But most people are working with iCloud, Google Contacts, Outlook or another contact repository that exists in the cloud. If that's your case, the contacts you see on your phone's address books are probably pulling information from one or several of those places.

Using multiple contact repositories at the same time can become a real mess. For instance, if you have an iPhone and you create a contact, it will go into iCloud by default, but not into Outlook or Google Contacts.

If you choose Google Contacts as your main repository, you might want to visit contacts.google.com to check all the contacts associated with your Google account before you import them into your phone.

The contacts you manually added will be under the 'Contacts' tab, while the people you have only exchanged emails with will be under 'Other Contacts.' This is important to know because once you start sharing your Google contacts with your phone, the only ones you'll see are those under the 'Contacts' tab.

If you've chosen to have Google Contacts as your main contact repository, you might want to change the 'Default Account' to Gmail. Then, each new contact you save on your iPhone will be stored in Google Contacts.

If your business is growing and you are adding other apps to your technology ecosystem, you should start considering how to keep them in sync. Integration avoids isolated data while it enriches your different databases with customer information.

The first tools you should consider to have in sync with Google Contacts is your CRM. Having these tools working together will help you centralize your contact information. Since this type of integration works so well, the best-of-breed CRMs offer in-app integrations with Google products. That makes it easy for you to get started.

To have only certain contacts on your phone, you can use an iPaaS or native integration like the one HubSpot has for Google Contacts. These types of tools allow you to filter which groups of contacts to sync from Google Contacts to other apps, and vice versa.
