New-MgUserContactFolderContact doesn't insert the Initials #3140
Description
Describe the bug
Hello,
I'm creating contact using New-MgUserContactFolderContact and want to fill th Initials parameters.
I don't get any error but the initials value is not available in outlook.
When checking from outlook (All fields -> All contacts field), the initials field is empty
But when I use Get-MgUserContactFolderContact -UserId [UserID] -ContactFolderId [ContactFolderID] I can see the initials are there.
Chris
Expected behavior
I expect to be able to see the initials in outlook and subsequently in the contacts on Iphone's
How to reproduce
New-MgUserContactFolderContact -UserId [UserID] -ContactFolderId [ContactFolderID] -FileAs "Doe" -DisplayName "John Doe" -Initials "JDO"
Open the contact in outlook -> contact Tab -> All Fields ->Select All Contacts Fields in the dropdown
