No contacts synced for ActiveExchange provider

[scossu]

Your environment

TbSync version: 4.3
EAS-4-TbSync version: 4.1.5
Thunderbird version: 102.6.0 on OSX Monterey

Expected behavior

I should see all my company's contacts on my contact address book.

Actual behavior

No contacts are shown.

Steps to reproduce

On a fresh TB install:

• Set up my company's email on Office365 (probably optional)
• Install TBSync and Exchange provider
• In TBSync, add a provider for ActiveExchange
• Select Office365 as the provider option
• Authenticate via OAuth as requested
• Check all the sync checkboxes in the TBSync dialog. Calendars and contacts appear
• Manually sync all items
• Check the calendar: it is showing all events
• Check the contacts: O365 address book is showing but it's empty
• Try to set contacts as read-only and re-sync
• Address book is still empty

Hello, is the project abandoned??

The problem with the contacts has been reported since October 2022 and i haven't found any update about it since then.

Unfortunately without this features TbSync is useless for me.

He will not answer this question for some reason. I had to give up on Thunderbird. I try so hard to support FOSS. It is becoming too much of a chore. The new Outlook Preview seems to give me much of what I need and I don't have to struggle to keep it operational.

Hi, I am doing this in my free time, which is becoming less and less. I said I will try to bring back the feature, but I cannot give you an ETA. I will close this as a dupe of jobisoft/TbSync#620
