If you're using a non-Cisco desk phone (such as Yealink), you may notice that contacts don't display automatically. This is a known limitation that Cisco is working to address in a future update.​

In the meantime, we have a workaround solution that allows you to display your enterprise contacts on your non-Cisco device using the Virtual Extension feature in Control Hub.​​

First-time setup process​

If your contacts are not showing on your non-Cisco phone, follow these steps:​

  1. Log in to Control Hub​
  2. Navigate to Management > Users in the left-hand menu
  3. Select Contacts > Manage Contacts > Create or edit via CSV​
  4. Download the CONTACTS CSV file​
  5. Navigate to Services > Calling​
  6. Select Features
  7. Scroll down and select Add New under Virtual Extension​
  8. Ensure Organisation is selected, then select the link 'Open the bulk editor’
  9. Download the CSV template​
  10. Edit the virtual-extension CSV file and keep only 'Organisation' in column A (delete all other rows)​
  11. Open the org-contacts CSV file you downloaded in step 4​
  12. Copy the contacts data into the virtual-extension CSV file and save it (leave column B blank)​
  13. Back in Control Hub, upload the CSV file into the virtual extension dialogue​​

All connected devices will synchronise the contacts (almost instantaneously), and contacts will be available under the enterprise contacts screen on your device.​

Note: Some devices may need to be manually refreshed. On your device, select Options and then ​Update.​​

Updating contacts in the future​

To update the phone contacts list again:​​

  1. Navigate to Services > Calling​
  2. Select Features
  3. Scroll down and select Add New under Virtual Extension​
  4. Ensure Organisation is selected, then select the link 'Open the bulk editor’​
  5. Select Download Data and amend the CSV file with your updated contacts​
  6. Upload the updated CSV file
